You didn't mention what cooler you have :). The R9270X is a pretty loud card under load (I believe). Could be that.

It would also help to know what case you have too :)

I did say what the case is but i can tell you again. And also yeh the cooler is quite small so it might not be my cooler it might be the graphics card :L no way of fixing that easily I would have to buy a whole new Graphics card which i haven't got the money for but I guess i'll at least help my CPU so any suggestions?

Stock amd coolers are extremely loud. You may want to look at an alternative aftermarket cooler which would do a better job with less noise.

I didn't see where you mentioned it before, my apologies!!!

Noctua coolers generally get good reviews, you'd need to check they'll fit inside of your case though - I'm not really familiar with the bitfenix comrade tower.

Something like the Hyper 212 evo is a good option if not planning to overclock, relatively quiet and very cool for the price
