I just bought this aio and I was wondering if the fans are really loud or if mine is off. Could anyone let me know? Are there better options with quieter fans that would work well? I got this cooler.

"Loud" depends on your personal perception. When operating at full speed, they are definitely loud. Even at half speed, it's still audible. Have you looked at the fan speed? EVGA provides driver software for their Closed Loop Coolers.

EVGA has driver software for their Closed Loop Coolers. https://www.evga.com/support/download/ I've installed it all the way down and it still makes noise – a bit bothersome. Are there any fans that would be better worth replacing?

I'm not sure if all fans are suitable for radiators. I noticed the sound was louder than expected when I got my Kraken X62. It isn't completely quiet.
