i did some research and i think you guys are right. I had a look in my bios and under pc health there was stuff about my cpu fan, cpu temperature, fan speed and what not. But i couldn't find anything that would lower the fan's speed, just options like SMART FAN MODE enabled or disabled and other options where give me a warning if the fan dies or the temperature goes to high. Here are my specs
GA-78LMT-S2P (GIGABYTE MOTHERBOARD)
Radeon 5770 1GB
COOLERMASTER HYPER 212 EVO CPU COOLER
8gb ram
AMD 1100t 6cores 3.3ghz
EDIT: de das dude. Im 100% sure i removed the plastic, put on the paste correctly, and if i didn't plug in the fan it shouldn't work at all? correct me if im wrong
ATM while not many programs are opened up, its fairly quiet but before when i was in my BIOS it was REALLY LOUD, plus during when i play games it gets fairly loud as well.
I searched up the manual for my motherboard and apparently i can use EASYtune to adjust my fan speed and what not. What speed should i set the fan too? i just did a good stress test on my cpu, i ran black ops 2 multiplayer and single player, borderlands 2 and skyrim and checked my cpu usage and it was at around 40 - 60%. Temperatures reached up to nearly 60, i used FANSPEED to check the fan's speed and temperatures
