Star Swarm stress test Mins DX11: 8fps Mantle: 32 fps Average: DX11: 30fps Mantle:60 fps BF4: Dont really have solid number but on 64p conquest I only dipped to about 56fps on Altai Range which is probably the most demanding map. There should be fewer dips when explosions occur ect. There are a few bugs though, random frame drops every couple of minutes all in all im quite impressed.

On top of that they dont realise that there are a newer and a lot better components then that brand new for same price. There are tools on both sides of the fence.

That's what I have done in my R4 as when the HDD is spinning it can add a decent amount of noise (similar to you though my girlfriend things im mad and say's theres bairly any difference ). Only downside to this is when you then try and access something from the HDD there is 3-4 seconds of waiting as the HDD spins back up. Since most of my regular access items are on the SSD though this is not a problem for me. How is the Corsair PSU, have you noticed the fan spin up on it much?

It's more the actual sound of the drive when in use anyway. The girlfriend thinks im mental but it's the little things like this that grab hold and annoy me haha ( I should also move it from directly beside my head ) Just played a good hour of BF4, so smooth with the Tri X 290, checked temps right afterwards and they were at 64c. It's going to take me some considerable time to get used to mouse and keyboard though after years of a controller :eek:

Very distracting. Since it's the harddrive causing the sound through vibrations you should probably check if you've installed ALL the rubber dampeners on each of your harddrives so that there is rubber between the bay/metal and the actual harddrive. If you've got a screw in there, there should be a rubber dampener on it. That could be your problem. I think excessive vibrations can shorten the life of your drives, but maybe I'm talking out my ar$e
Am I Evil? wrote: » It's the hard drive thats causing the noise. Took the case off with the computer on just to mess about and test it out. I added some hand pressure to the top of the WD blue drive and.. yup the noise reduced significantly. I'll learn to live with it :pac:
