Cheers, I was thinking along similiar lines, would you say that mobo would be okay for a 5900x as well ?

No thoughts on this one ? I've read contrary things about the fan's noise levels. I remember the terrible whine the tiny fan on my ancient AMD Athlon made !

Greetings, Out of the PCS available X570 motherboards, does anyone one have experience / advice regarding the tiny fan on the chipset and how often it's in operation is / how noisy it can be (or not) ? cheers

No case will be magic, you have to minimise noise at the source. A sound dampening case will be more effective at attenuating high frequency noise. I've found multiple 120 / 140 mm (low noise) fans running slowly works well. It has been standard practice to have separate OS and audio file...

Thanks for the suggestions, anyone else before I make the decision(s) ?

Hello, All sorts of PC stuff - Fl Studio, loads of Native Instruments stuff etc. I've built things up over the years, I don't think I would consider another OS option.

Thanks again for the reply. Yes, the Corsair model I had was probably pretty old, Saying that, I just don't see the need for a AIO cooler, I have no intention of overclocking. I meant to say I wasn't keen the fan on the 570 chipset (if I'm looking at things right ?) What are the better M.2...

Thanks for the reply. Have had good experience with a similiar specced Noctua cooler. I've had a Corsair AIO cooler and the fans were noisy. I chose a B550 board as I didn't want any active cooling - ditto the graphics card. 32 GB is considered the sweetspot for large Orchestral sample...

I will be using an external USB Audient sound card and can do with an underpowered graphics card as I don't play games. Cheers ! Case CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 5800X Eight Core CPU (3.8GHz-4.7GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4) Motherboard ASUS® STRIX B550-F...
