System noise
The chunky Venom cooler fan's speed ramps up pretty quickly once the CPU is subjected to full-on load. While demonstrably louder than the HEXUS-built PC, which is housed inside a cavernous Corsair Obsidian 700D chassis, the GTK's noise isn't all that annoying.
Changing gears, twin GeForce GTX 560 Ti cards are cooled by excellent reference heatsink. In fact, the system is quieter with the two cards going full chat in a GPU-bashing game.
Overall, then, the noise, power-draw and temperatures are reasonable for a mid-priced PC.
