no, it's not "incredibly loud". like any fan that small it's "whiny"wolfram said:Regarding the Abit chipset's fan, is it incredibly loud?
If so, I might get another chipset heatsink. I like those Zalman ones
it only bothers me because the rest of my system is almost silent, so I hear it louder than everything else. but chances are that you won't even hear it over your CPU fan, video card fan, and case fans.

Thanks for the feedback people.
Now I don't care at all about the chipset's fan. I'm used to the fan's noise, so that tiny fan (rotating at more than 3000-4000 RPM's sure), won't bother me at all.
And if it does, I'll just turn on my speakers
Thanks everyone for your valuable replies :wave:

BTW, that chipset's fan should be quieter than this ****ing little one:
It's loud, but keeps my toasty Geforce 6100 cool.
What's that grey box (as I ponder, I feel like a noob :blackeye: )?

That's probably it, right? I'm not used to seeing them propped up the way they are (in general, I only look at my mobo and my friends, neither which have that as well). It looks like it' s covering the video card, no?

Got it now, usually I recognize the silencers as on top of the video card only (that replace the heatsink completely but don't expell air out of the computer itself).

You're used to see the Silencer like this, ain't you?

Yes, I've seen those everywhere (I do know what they are to clarify things, I just didn't recognize the large grey version of it)!
