    I'd just like to add, don't focus on your FPS as the end-all-be-all of your game play. Unless you are noticing a problem, just turn on V-Sync and enjoy your game. Checking the FPS will drive you crazy because this game fluctuates so much and there is nothing that can be done on our end to really fix it.

    Whenever you play any kind of 3D game, or use a visually demanding application, it's fairly typical that your computer will get louder as the fans speed up to keep up the needed cooling. :)

    Agree with this, as long as you know Vsync is working then just play the game and don't let fps bother you.

    The general fan noise is normal too. it's the high pitched noise that can indicate extremely high fps. Known as coil wine it can typically come from your gpu or power supply.. if you want to know what that noise is just youtube it LOL.

    Awesome, thanks for the responses! I definitely feel at ease and more knowledgeable on the whole thing haha.

    And yeah @chesterbigbird I actually searched it on YouTube the other night, I definitely don't hear that noise thankfully :D
