Hi folks,
I'm considering the purchase of a DS high-end Aventum AI machine to use for music production, so it's important that the machine be as quiet as possible. This model has a liquid-cooled processor and ssd drives but there are still fans involved for the processor, power supply and graphics card I believe. I would like to have some idea of how loud this machine would be. Processor: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3960X (24-Core) (Boost Up to 4.5 GHz) Motherboard: GIGABYTE TRX40 DESIGNARE (Wi-Fi) (AMD TRX40 Chipset) (Up to 4x PCI-E Devices) (XL-ATX) <br><strong></strong> System Memory: 128GB DDR4 3200MHz Digital Storm Performance Series Power Supply: 1000W Digital Storm Performance Series (Semi-Modular) (80 Plus Gold) Expansion Bay: External USB Digital Media Card Reader Optical Drive: External USB - Blu-Ray Writer & Player (Blu-Ray 6x) & DVD/CD Writer Storage Set 1: 1x SSD M.2 (4TB Sabrent Rocket Q4) (NVM Express) <br><strong></strong> Storage Set 2: 1x SSD (2TB Samsung 860 PRO) Storage Set 3: - No Thanks RAID Config: - No Thanks RAID Card: - No Thanks Internet Access: High Speed Network Port (Supports High-Speed Cable / DSL / Network Connections) Graphics Card(s): 1x GeForce RTX 3070 8GB (Performance Edition) (VR Ready) |

I have a i9 10850k and a 3080 and my PC fans can be a little loud. I'm not sure if it's normal but one of my fan consistently runs at 2000+ rpm. It does do a good job keeping my CPU cool though so I'm not complaining. I may just have to learn to curve the fan later.

The ML Pro fans are available for the Aventum. They are magnetic levitation spinners, so as quiet as you can get here.

Hi,
ML PRO RGB we are looking to remove from our configurator very soon due to supply issues. If you order with ML PRO, there will possibly be extended delay on your order or you will be asked to swap. |

well thanks for letting me know that. Is there anyone I can talk to about this order so that I can get it placed sooner than later?

If you haven’t purchased yet, I would recommend you don’t. There’s a lot of us who got anxious and ordered and are stuck on stages 1 through 4 for months. DS is not responding to some emails. There’s a shortage on stocks. You could at this point wait up to 3-5 months for a computer.

Yes, I went ahead with the purchase knowing there would be delays. It will still get here sooner than if I didn't order. Fortunately, I don't need it tomorrow.

Look at it on the bright side. If you placed your order already you are guaranteed to get it instead of trying to get it from scalpers online.

Ooh boy, so since I've purchased my computer in September and received it in October, my computer has, refuse to give a video signal, turn on after being turned off, work on numerous games. It turns it'sbself off under light work loads and spazzes out when I'm doing nothing but watching YouTube videos. I've already spoken to several tech support people including a manager and my machine is still a dysfunctional mess. I've been calling them since October too and the issue still hasn't been resolved. Now I'm gonna have to rma it and wait an entire month just to to get it back. If you're not convinced or you think I'm trolling I can show you these emails and my computer. |

Ya know I bought this computer during a difficult time for myself thinking it would be the thing to make me happier. Instead I've only been met with frustration and buyer's remorse. I've crashed during numerous ranked games, dungeons and raids across several different games. I've spent a lot of my breaks trying to even get a hold of support. I know it's a difficult time for everyone but damn it, it took a month for this thing to even get here and now after 3-4 months of tech support limbo I'm suppose to send it back only to part with it for a month... possibly more due to workload all the techs are under. Maybe its just been a bad quarter but I really don't recommend anyone purchase a machine from these guys until things are all done and sorted. Everything else in my life has gone to sh*t and funny enough so has this computer lol but that's just life I guess. hopefully I'll still be around when it comes back from HQ

Sorry to hear about the problems with your machine.
I guess I'll be sure to keep my current setup around as a backup. |

Yeah... I donated my last set up, I don't regret doing it but damn, would be nice to have had a back up right about now. |
