Bit of a silly question here, but does your computer run noisily? or silently?

Question

Mine sounds like there is an army of ants marching about inside.

Answer 1

nice and quiet.....yours needs either a good blowing out with compressed air or a new fan or 2

Answer 2

Could be as simple as moving your PC, mine was giving out a `humming` sound and vibrating,I found that when i moved it on the shelve it sits on so as the 4 feet were on the shelve, the problem disappeared.

Answer 3

All you can hear from mine is a hum from the fans, which you really don't hear in the background unless you listen for it! If you have got an unusual noise just started it wants investigating.

Answer 4

Our old one was really noisy, but the new one we have now is generally very quiet- except when it's 'thinking' very hard- even then a gentle kick usually sorts it out. :)

Answer 5

Some hard drives make more noise than others.

Mine is quite noisy, but then its a Raptor drive spinning at 10,000 rpm.

Answer 6

You need a new cooling fan, not expensive.

Answer 7

Mine's silent. A laptop I used to have was really noisy because of the fan, but it still worked fine
