Built a new pc yesterday, Currently have a RX 580 GPU with a Ryzen 7 2700x. The pc is fine and ive kept an eye on my temps which are fine too, I have the NZXT h510 case but the fans are a bit louder than i would like, Im not sure if its the CPU cooler or the case fans. Does anyone else have this problem with the case fans or should i swap them for better ones ?

I believe these are PWM based [4 Pin] so you can plug the fan into your motherboard, go into the BIOS and change your fan curve that way so they aren't so intrusive.

Better fans, like something from Be Quiet, would probably be the next option if you're OK with spending a bit of money.

What is the best fans to buy ? Around 15-20 GBP ?

£15-20 for each fan? or all of them?

For cheaper Be Quiet! fans, the Pure Wings 2 are alright. The better, more expensive option is Silent Wings 3's.

Adjusting your fan curves to be more silent at idle will dramatically reduce noise. You're going to want to keep them on high for when your components are under load, though.
