Make it quiet so I can go to sleep
But a sleeping computer is just as quiet as a shut down computer... Which is totally silent. I don't get it.
If you have a watercooled system getting less hours on the pump is always good, especially with a cheaper AIO. Also not all pumps are completely quiet when in sleep
I used to have a watercooled PC, I don't remember it making any sounds while in sleep. Why would the pump run when PC is asleep?
Many motherboard pump headers will still provide power while in sleep. But you usually start hearing the pump more when it's older and the bearing starts to wear, or due to permeation lowering the water levels.
i mean, i used to have an old power supply that made a pretty loud high pitched noise constantly so i had to always turn the switch to go to sleep. maybe they have something similar in the motherboard
