Mr Bottoms, of course fans can make a significant noise. Nowadays they
are more often high rpm and make even more noise than ever especially
as cpu temps are so high.

Component or case fan, one with sleeve bearings sound ok to start with
then get progressively a lot noisier. And I just won't believe all
your fans were Pabst or equivalent.

There's nothing in the design of a PC which prevents use of thermal
controls. Low revving large blade fans are anything but annoying.

If you don't yet have the knowledge or ability to use SpeedFan then
leave it to others. There's no need to disrespect it or its users.
