Holy fuck. Why is the fan that came with this thing so god damn noisy? It has this drony sounds to it and keeps cycling up and down in speed at the slightest amount of load or heat on the CPU.
My older 4770 was quieter overall and less annoying even when the fan was full blast.
Is this how this thing is or can i get a better fan to put on the heat sink?

Please go back to whatever board you came from.

seems fine to me. i guess if you want to spend $40 on a different fan and some copper you're welcome to.
ok

OP here. don't know about spending that much, but I am willing to spend some money to get something quieter and less annoying as long as it cools properly.

Thats like saying a $100 ceiling fan is a rice meme because a $20 fan from walmart does the same job

>using the non-rice easy to install low-profile OEM-created cooling apparatus them complain it's too noisy because it's a cheap POS that costs about $1 to make and it designed to use the least amount of cooling capability as possible

The 212 Evo is like $30 now.

that "apparatus" is designed to be as cheap as possible and deliver the absolute minimum cooling performance needed for the chip to work properly. It is loud and shitty, so you either buy a proper cooler (evo 212 for example) or just fucking deal with the noise

hey bro. my 4770 stock one worked find for over two years. didn't know this one would be complete shite.
I'd like to just get one where i didn't have to replace the heat sink. Not overclocking this thing or anything. Does run hotter than my 4770 though.

Well, it's a 4790k, not a 4770. Just get a Thermalright Macho, cheap and porwerful.

Dumb fucks like you is why Intel stopped shipping CPU coolers at all with their K series consumer chips and ship water coolers with their high end
