I can’t hear my fans. For one, they are variable, for two, I built an insulated and AC server closet where all my computers are. I can hear it while it’s booting, but once it’s on and the fan management comes on it’s quiet. Then again, I’m old and a little deaf.
Super old CPU? not really for a file server, or a plex server apparently. It’s still plenty fast. I’d be fun to see how fast on my 9900k though.
