Hey all, I've been using this PC almost 4 years now, parts get upgraded etc but the noise is still there. Actually I can bear with it even though my side window is always open.
Recently out of curiosity I tried spraying some silicone based liquid (car dashboard grooming) into the CPU fan, Chassis Fan and GPU fan. I was surprised by the result, because just a careful spraying near the bearing reduces noise significantly. It is so obvious that I can hear my HDD crunching clearly now. Of course it's not noiseless, but it works!
Now I guess it probably dangerous or incorrect, perhaps some of you might enlighten me? I know some people suggested olive oil, but I kinda like silicone because I've been using it with door and drawer hinges. Beside, I happen to have quite plenty of them.
TIA
