Well.. AMD is more loud than a Geforce/Nvidia card but paying for a Nvidia card cost more. AMD is cheap but can is louder/warmer but you get a nice graphic card for a nice price if you wanna buy a AMD Card. Or you can just go crazy and buy a 780Ti :P

I'm saving for a GTX Titan + 4k monitor (I'm a digital artist so it's good for my work). I'd suggest a Sapphire AMD R9 270X VAPOR-X 2GB GDDR5 Graphics Card, very quiet and quite cheap.

The AMD R series GPU's are horrible when it comes to noise. Their "operating temperature" is in the mid-90's.

In my experience, the GTX 780Ti has not exceeded 83C while gaming, even with a substantial overclock. That's with standard cooling.

Well, he can't afford a 780Ti hehe :) So xD But for the money he want to waste .. a AMD card is quite nice. The noise he is getting is not that it's loud or so.. It's something else.

I suggest you get Fractal Design R4, superb, clean looking and silent chassi with tons of good reviews :)
Also, if I'd buy any kind of graphic card it would be with aftermarket coolers, in other words coolers made by other companies and not the standard ones from either Radeon or Gigabyte, but mostly Radeon :P

Get a Nvidia GTX 760.
There around $250.

Well, i did get a new chasis, but the cpu still is vibrating/with a grinding noise, its most likely some fan right?

and what do i do when i found it which fan is making the noise?

If you hard drive is noticeably loud, I'd make quick work of backing up your important data and buying a new hard drive (although an SSD would be preferable).

If you're still interested in getting a new video card, check out: http://www.videocardbenchmark.net/high_end_gpus.html, it ranks them by performance and provides recent prices for context.

Also, http://pcpartpicker.com/ will be your new god when buying hardware.

+1 Was bout to tell em that.
Get a SSD as a boot drive and a hard drive for storage, best of both worlds.
