Put a cooler-pad under it, something like shown below.
But cooler-pad ? I want decrease noise, not temperature. The fan is too loud, if I use cooler pad, it make some extra noise.

MSI 875P Neo-FIS2R Northbridge fan too loud !

I have a very quite system, but the Northbridge fan is too loud ! In fact it is the loudest element in my system and I'd like to replace it.
Which fans are there that I could use instead ?

At 6000 RPM almost every fan is loud.........lubricant doesn't help, it's a shitty fan........
Loosing the ridiculous disco light is actually another advantage.....

Mac fan running too loud after update

I have a Macbook pro 13". (mid 2012)
Memory: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Processor: 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Storage: 500 gb
After updating to Yosemite 10.10, my macbook pro's fan is running too loud and producing a lot of heat. I reseted the SMC several times but it didn't help. Surprisingly, The fan also runs loud even if only 1 application is open.
Please advice me what should I do.
Thank you in advance!

I have the same model and I've had the same problem for a few days. I didn't really have problems with heat, but my fan was going crazy even though I was just browsing the Internet. Maybe you're logged into iCloud and have some activity going on. What worked for me was going to:
1. System Preferences
2 iCloud
3. Uncheck things like "Keychain", "Find my Mac", etc. (things you don't need/use)
For me, I unchecked everything and logged out of iCloud. After several minutes, my fan is super quiet and not acting up! Hope this helps.

W100: speakers too quiet - fan too loud

Hello,
i am using the w100-10d and i am not amused about the loudness concerning the fan and
the speakers. The fan is too loud and the speakers are very quiet.
Is anybody there, who can give me some informations about the speakers and their configuration ?
In Windows 7 and in the Toshiba Conf. Panel the loudness is on max. level, but the sound is too quiet.
Perhaps Toshiba is estimating all users are using the headset ?
Thanks

>Is anybody there, who can give me some informations about the speakers and their configuration ?

This Libretto is an kind of tablet PC an small 7 display device I dont know what speaker loudness do you expect but you will not get the same loudness like on 15 notebook equipped with bigger speakers.
Furthermore the speakers are mono and not stereo.
By the way; the sound can be configured in control panel -> sound
Check if all volume controls are set to top.

Update to 10.4.7 the fan has become too loud!

Hello,
Other than “waiting out” the next update or reinstalling everything on my computer, is there a remedy for the loud fan noise which has come as a result of the latest update? I have changed neither the way I work nor have I added additional soft/hardware. It is awful!
Thank you,
Nanette

Hi
Really doubt the upgrade should cause this problem ; well it hasn't done that on my mini which is still working the same ...
Maybe this upgrade didn't happened as it should be ; I think you should consider reinstal original OS, check if the fan is still loud , and make the upgrade again...
But before that, try to reset the SMC (system management controller) as described here : http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303446-en . The SMC is the chip that controls power management (i.e the fan too), so ths may help...

Fan noise MSI Platinum SLI

Hi everyone!
I'm determined to buy a MSI Platinum SLI, but I read the fan noise is too loud. I know basing your purchase in the fan noise is a bit silly, but I want a quiet PC (at least reasonably quiet), and I've heard that you lose your waranty if you change any of the components of the motherboard, including the fan, and that doesn't appeal to me.
Opinions?
Thanks a lot!

Hi fafner,
As a matter of fact it as 2, one on the southbridge an one on the power regulators, but are of 30 mm not that much noise
Be well....
I thought only the K8N Diamond SLI has the fan on the power regulators. I have the USA "non diamond club" version of the K8N Diamond, the K8N Neo4 Platinum SLI, and it only has a fan on the Northbridge, the power regulators/MOSFET's have a passive heatsink.
Regardless, IMO the Northbridge fan on my board isn't loud at all, I didn't worry about silence when I built, but my case fans are all medium RPM 120mm fans and my CPU watercooled, so if it was obnoxious I'd notice it. It isn't.

Loud fan noise while gaming on GT70 gaming laptop

I've loved my laptop ever since I bought it but there seems to be one problem with the fan possibly.
The fan noise is really audible and it gets annoying when I'm gaming. Games like Fable Anniversary (highest setting) forces the fan to be turned on and make loud noises that even wearing a headset wouldn't help avoid. You know how new MSI laptops have a button for turning on cooler boost 2? It feels like it gets turned on by itself while playing some, if not most games.
I would first like to know if this is normal for a gaming laptop. Its REALLY annoying, I even tried the GT70 Fan control 1.63 but the fan keeps turning on by itself. I understand that the GTX 870m gets heated fast and therefore needs to cool off, but like on almost every game.....Skyrim, Tera (not even that demanding.....and not even on max setting ....) long hours of playing league of legends, The Last Remant..etc. I wanna play without such loud fan noises I don't mind if its audible but not too loud, I can even hear the fan noise from upstairs if I leave my room door opened. I would really enjoy playing Tera and Archeage without such irritating, loud sound that really distracts me and makes me fear that its abnormal. Hell, even Rift (MMORPG) released in 2011, would turn on turbo fan.... =(. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Specs:
Name: GT70 2PC Dominator
Intel Core i7-4810MQ
GTX 870m

1TB 7200 RPM

There isn't much you can do with the tool but better than nothing.
It didn't fix the fan problem =/
I'm not the only one with such problem, https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=256673.0 look at the 2nd video and just listen to how loud the fan noise is. (Yes different models but same crap)
The silent option doesn't fully stop/slowdown the fan, maybe just momentarily then once you open up the game, the fan goes back to its usual 3k RPM. Is there ANY way to stop this? its been happening ever since I bought it and it really makes me not wanna play simply because of the noise that is audible even through wearing a headset. Let alone not wearing a headset....
Sad it happens even when playing fifa 15. I mean is fifa 15 even THAT demanding? the answer is no, not even close to demanding as its using the same engine as 13, 14 ..etc. Also, I played it on my old lenovo laptop that had WAY lower specs such as gt 650m graphics card and yet the fan was extremely quiet, and I might add it was on highest setting....
I understand that the gpu can get heated fast, but on almost EVERY game? at first I thought the fan will only make such noises when playing highly demanding games such as Skyrim. A game from 4 years ago without any frkin mods. or Fable Anniversary..OR Prison Break: Conspiracy (what the f?) but it turns out that the fan will go turbo mode on literally every game. so in conclusion, every game is suddenly demanding thus the Cooler Booster 2 will automatically turn on.

IMac 27" (Late 2012) Loud Fan and Overheating Issues, causing Hard Drive Failure

Hi all,
I'm having some serious overheating issues with my new iMac. Any help to help me solve this problem would be gladly appreciated since it's really beginning to bug me. Here's what's has happened:
I noticed in the first few hours of switching the iMac on that there was a short burst of very loud fan noise. This has been happening about once every two days since and every time I haven't been doing any heavy processing with the system. I've noticed that the main fan will spin, on average, at 1200rpm. Is that normal? The iMac is very well ventilated and sits right next to a window...
I have also boot camped the iMac with a copy of Windows 8 so I could run some fairly power-hungry games. I intentionally purchased a high end iMac (27" display, Intel Core i7 3.4GHz, Nvidia GeForce 680MX Graphics, 1TB Fusion drive) and expected the iMac to run games flawlessly. However, after a few days, I noticed that the CPU and GPU had shot up to a worrying 80°C whenever I ran power-hungry games, with a very loud hissing noise from the fan. After running games for about 10 minutes, the fan will stop hissing, causing the GPU and CPU to increase to 100°C. The iMac then fails and switches off unexpectedly without any warning. After analysing the Windows event logs, I received an event ID 41: The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
As this occurred about six times whilst I was testing my iMac's performance, I think my hard drive has now begun to fail - sometimes I will hear the hard drive make a click noise, about once every 5 seconds. Sometimes, the clicking noise causes OS X and Windows to run very slowly (even though minimal RAM is being used and nothing too intensive (Safari, Mail etc.) is being processed). Running Repair Disk and Repair Disk Permissions under OS X's recovery mode as well as a repair in chkdsk in Windows suggests that there were no problems with the hard drive. All I can do is wait a while for the clicking noise to stop, and then performance will increase. I have backed up everything externally.
I have also performed a reset of the SMC as well as the PRAM, which hasn't really helped.
Any help will be appreciated. I will gladly provide any extra logs etc. if they're needed.
Thanks so much,
Alex.

That's the default fan speed on iMacs, so there isn't any problem with this.

You must know that Boot Camp isn't compatible with Windows 8 and that Apple hasn't released drivers for Windows 8, so it can fail. Install Windows 7 inmediately until Apple launches updated drivers.
As it looks like the hard disk is damaged, I would take the Mac to an Apple Store. It's in warranty, so it should be repaired for free or you should receive a new one

Loud fan and metal cracking noise on Macbook Pro 13''?

I have the late 2011 model Macbook Pro 13''. The problem started out with just a loud fan, the computer started to operate really slowly and just yesterday I started to hear loud metal rattling on the inside. At first it was just when I turned the computer but now it will do it periodically while it's sitting completely still while running. It also is heating up a lot. I've already gone to Activity Monitor and killed all activities using too much CPU and the fan doesn't stop.

I have the same model and accidentally dropped mine off my bed today.
I looked around for a while to see what the noise could have been and found this
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1935?viewlocale=en_US which seems to explain the problem, even if you haven't dropped yours. My fan has also been loud lately but it seems unrelated.
I'd suggest you try turning off the SMS and then back on.
I did that with mine and it hasn't made any more noise since. If that doesn't help, it's never a bad idea to go to the apple store to have it looked at. Especially for how expensive the computer is.

Radeon HD 3870 PCIe 2.0 overheating and loud fan problem fixed?

Hello everybody.
I just wanted to know if anybody on here has bought an 3870 lately and still has the overheating/constant loud fan issue. I have been told by Macsales that this issue has been fixed on the new cards? Is that correct? I am still shopping for a card for my MacPro 2007 1,1. Don't really have the money to buy the 4870 and the only other option I have is the 3870. Pretty sad that there are no other ones in that $200 (or less) price range. Every other card for that Mac version is in the $350-$450 range.
Anyway, just wanted to know if these 3870 issues have been fixed.
Thanks.

My experience with the 3870: I have 2 of them for 2 computers and have never got the fan issues reported all over this site. I dont think it applies too ALL 3870s'. They have been pretty much silent or close too. Its a great card with Motion and maybe I was tripping, but it seemed to make the interface a bit more snappy.
Having said that, I have removed them now and replaced them with the 8800, due to Snow leopard and support for Open CL (FYI 3870 does not support Open CL, which is a shame, why? baffles me!) not that apps support that yet, but soon.

Background sound is too loud

my macbook pro, early 20011, the background sound is too loud with or without headphones, i cannot hear the speech well. any ideas?

Quote from: kyton72 on 10-March-15, 23:57:24
I also found the mic input poor. End result was to disable onboard and put my Xonar DGX back in. Also Xonar volume @ 50% seems to bee the same as the Realtek 100% volume.
I'll be perfectly honest with you.....
On both my laptop (MSI GT70) and my desktop (MSI Z97 SLI) I have an Asus Xonar based sound card....it's just flat out better.
Personally, I don't care for the included software with the on-board sound solutions (software based creative crap is...crap...), and the sound that it makes for digital connections (COAX/optical) really isn't as good.
But again, that's just my opinion. I believe that the on-board sound should work though, and it might actually be a problem with the board. I would say at the very least, contact MSI and maybe consider an RMA to see if you can get it resolved, just so you have a fully working board to start with.

Fam too loud

Since two days ago my mac pro make a lot of noise. The fans are going too loud, like airplane take off.
I need help i´m worry about it.
Thanks

That Apple technote says there is no SMC-RST button which is a real shame as it would make life easier. I don't think a minute can really bleed or reset an SMC. Overnight may or may not.
On older G4 MDD and G5, to bleed any juice, not only unplug, but remove RAM and battery, reset the PMU/SMU and try booting with it unplugged would revive a system that would not boot when nothing worked.
You could try the "command option PR" routine to zap pram/nvram through multiple reboots from cold start too.
I shutdown at night, and turn off the UPS so there isn't any juice going in to anything. But I don't think that resets the system. And when I had a problem the only way to clear it was on older Mac Pro to use SMC_RST.
What I would do though, is boost the fans to run @ 800-850 rpm (one fan won't get boosted though) using SMCFANCONTROL 2.1.2 which can be downloaded off
http://www.macupdate.com
The other thing is to monitor temps. iStatPro, Hardware Monitor are good, and make sure the room isn't getting warm (I have to turn down heat in winter as room heats up with the Mac on, and cool it more like now, as it tends to add 4ºF ).
The fans are suppose to respond to thermal sensors and nvram settings. It tends to wait too long to respond to changes. Also, sometimes a plist that governs power management can cause problems. Most drastic route: Archive Install or reinstall (maybe to another drive either internal or FW).
When you look at fan speed, insure that it is not graphics. I assume you are talking about 1500+ rpm (1000 is only barely audible). So good to run Hardware Monitor to help diagnose what is happening.
Also, if you have not, boot from your OEM DVD with 'd' and run Apple Hardware Test. Click on Extended, and command + L for looping. That was the first time I heard fans run full bore (2500 rpm?) and scared me not knowing what was happening.
Someone thought they saw a SMC button behind the top Riser in 2008, but that was never confirmed, and their photo showing it was pulled down. Shame.
Also, make sure your power cable is okay and plugged in - I put wrong cable on once and it auto booted and fans ran wild.
Otherwise, it should be looked at by Apple.

Subwoofer/bass too loud

Hi!
When playing a videoclip or playing a game in flash the bass is way too loud. Anyone else with this problem? It only appears when I'm using Firefox, not Chrome.
I've tried re-installing Flash and Firefox.
Flash-version
11.8.800
Web browser
Firefox 23.0.1
Operating system
Windows 7 64bit

@Chris Campbell
Thanks for your reply! And apologies for my slow response.
I've followed the steps closely to uninstalling Flash Player and installed Flash Player 11.7 for both IE and other browsers. After uninstalling I checked the versions using this link:
http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/find-version-flash-player.html
and noted the following versions:
On my Google Chrome 30.0.1599.101 m:
Your Flash Player Version: 11.9.900.117
Your OS: Windows 7 (32-bit)
Your Browser: Google Chrome
On my Maxthon 4.1.3.4000:
Your Flash Player Version: 11.5.502.149
Your OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)
Your Browser: Google Chrome
On my IE 10.0.9200.16721:
No Flash Player found
Seems like the uninstall process did not clean up Flash Player entirely. Nevertheless, I tried installing Flash Player 11.7 to see what we get. Post-installation, I checked the versions again and saw the same for Google Chrome and Maxthon but for my IE, I now see:
Your Flash Player Version: 11.7.700.242
Your OS: Windows 7 (64-bit)
Your Browser: Internet Explorer
I then went back to YouTube to check the bass levels and still heard a bass boost when using Maxthon and IE and not Chrome.
Hope this is useful! Let me know what you'd like me to try next

MBP C2D 2.16 - Loud Fans and HDD

I got it today and it runs cooler and faster than the CD MBP that I used for 4 days (this new one is its replacement.)
But I have 2 complaints -
Ultra loud fans, I can't listen to music without getting annoyed even when it is away from my lap, connected to a Cinema Display. The fans turn on very quickly - I don't have to stress it that hard. They turn off only when the machine is idle. Any sort of activity drives the fans crazy.
Next one - the 160Gb HDD makes about as much annoying sounds when active.
Is this stuff normal? At least it wasn't the case with my PowerBook and CD MBP.

I got my laptop last week and at first it did not make any sounds. However last night I was working with WORD and EXCEL and the fans started to turn on, not loud, but they were constantly running. It was kind of interesting cause these apps arent too demanding, but thought nothing of it. Turned on the laptop this morning and the fans started right up again. Currently only using Safari and the fans are still on. Again, they arent running loud, but I can hear them in my room with little background noise, which I did not hear when I first got the laptop. Any words or wisdom or suggestions?
MBP 2.33GHz, 3gigs RAM, 160 HDD Mac OS X (10.4.8)
