Aurora R8, how loud is it "supposed" to be?
Hey everyone, I hope you are having a good weekend.
So, my new R8 is about just under 2 weeks old now.
I'm just curious how loud is this system supposed to be at idle? Should I be able to hear it from about 12 feet across the room when it is just on/idle and I'm not doing anything on it/opened any programs yet?
Tech suggested turning off "Turbo Boost" in the Bios at start, I would like to know opinions on this if anyone has time.
Best way I can describe the noise it is between a fan and a buzz sound, a little of each
I understand and appreciate computers in general can make noise, I'm just trying to figure out if this is how loud this computer is supposed to be or not. (Yes I know it is hard to tell/give an opinion if your not in the room with it - I tried explaining the best I can, so any feedback would be appreciated.
Also this is more than likely unrelated, but I figure I'll mention it:
A few days after I got it I had a issue where Windows wouldn't boot. Was told to do a Windows reset and if that didn't work do a clean install of windows (Reset didn't work, clean install did, or well, seems to)
Ever since then it has been louder than before.
Thanks everyone.

I have have the same problem with my aurora r8 but it really only gets loud when loading something big (like a big game or software) but when it does do this it's exceptionally loud. also since i'm a moder when loading into a modded save file or game at alli can notice it getting louder but after its done loading it goes silent and stays that way until i leave the game and open up a new modded game or a big software
Hope this helped because i didnt really know what to say in this post
Thanks you
