You have a 3900x with a GB Aorus Master board. You're using just two M.2 drives and dislike the noise from the chipset fan plus dust buildup. You also got an Asus Dark Hero, which looks good without a fan. Decide if upgrading is worth it or consider returning it.

The Xx70 motherboard's chipset fan can be bothersome, but switching to another Aorus board would likely improve performance. The chipset requires a significant amount of power—around 8 to 9 out of 10 times it stays quiet even when under load.
