How did you run it without the GPU?
Also, my GPU is like 70% of my noise, even with one tiny fan

Started, didn't throw a code on the Mobo but I couldn't see the screen so.
..Probably not the best thing to do..
I've found that for me and most systems I see the main source of noise is either a crappy stock HSF and then followed by case fans plugged in to the PSU at full blast. My brothers machine had the stock 8320 cooler on it and had 5 120mm fans on full blast at all times. That thing was louder than my Phantom when he was in his room down the hall and my Phantom was sitting at my feet. I have about 3 more fans than him, but also a fan controller. For his birthday I bought him a CM T4 cooler and it's much quieter now.
I almost never hear GPU noise unless I'm doing benches or something and I notice it immediately kick up to 100 percent usage.

It's called onboard video
My MSI board doesn't have onboard video....?
I connected it to the VGA port and no signal. Swapped the VGA cable and the same thing happened.. Not sure if there's a switch but the 280X get's here on tuesday..
You must not have an APU processor then.

My computer is weird, right after startup, its really loud for a second, then it becomes quieter after that, then again,really loud when under,load
Thinkinh about getting some Corsair Quiet Edition fans now

It's normal for fans to rotate faster when under load.
It's not unusual for your CPU fan to kick on at full speed when it first boots up. Same with case fans if they're connected to the motherboard.

That's what I thought, and tried explaining to my neighbor who thinks he knows everything...

Black Friday brought "Eva" to life
Here we go... Hope my images aren't too big...
My cable management wasn't the best at the beginning, but it improved a bit (still not the best).
I don't have have my graphics card yet which will definitely fill up quite a bit of this case.
Love how this build has come pout so far. Everything matches up and fits perfectly!
But, this board/case combo is very flimsy on the bottom right corner (no screw holes on the case).. Might have to think of something..

Your cable management is fine. Need to fill up those hard drive bays though
No the point is that we really can't understand what you're saying half the time.
I understand you meant zip tie the wires, but your "flow of electricity" and other things you said make no sense.

We know how electricity flows through a conductor (wire), but what doesn't make sense is that you say he should put multiple wires together in a mesh sleeve to improve the "electrical flow". That's what doesn't make sense.
Gravity plays almost zero influence in a PC's cabling, so I still don't understand why you think it's a big deal.
