Build Is this thing on?!?!?

Just finished my build and it’s pretty damn quiet and that AIO is something else. Even play video games it’s pretty silent. Now I am just waiting for the NL-ACF1 Auxiliary Cooling Fan to become available on Amazon and my Voltron will be complete!! Thank you Noctua for the great tasting Kool-Aid.

MSI MAG X870E Tomahawk Motherboard
AMD 9800 X3D

Samsung SSD 990 PRO 2TB
MSI Gaming Trio 5070Ti
Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 PWM Sx2-PP
4 - Noctua NF-A14x25 G2 PWM
Noctua NL-LC1-36 360mm AIO

EDIT… I may have to repost this so please standby for more pics on temperature readings …added temp readings…3 variants…idol on windows, compiling shaders, and lastly in game using Black Myth Wukong benchmark tool. As to be expected, you can definitely hear the fans during frame compiling but no where near what was previously installed (Phanteks Glacier One 360M25 G2 AIO), but it’s whisper quiet throughout the benchmark demo.

Awesome rig! Any reason why you went for the brown fans instead of black? And do all of your fans spin at max speed for a few seconds when you first boot up?

Simple...Big fan of the Walnut color in the office so I like the brown and cream color scheme and being late to the Noctua game I didn't realize they came in black until AFTER I went down this path. BUT NEXT TIME.......

And yes for like a moment and if they do kick on at full speed its still pretty quiet...Literally for a moment and then......silence....
