I'm in need of advice for my PC setup. I'm trying to play games like Helldivers 2 at 1440p and 60fps without making a lot of noise. My current rig struggles with 1080p even on low settings, and after working with Geek Squad to quiet it down, it seems to have gotten worse, which is super frustrating. Here are my specs: I have a Corsair 3500X ARGB Mid-Tower case, an AMD Ryzen 5 9600X processor, a B650 Chipset motherboard, 32 GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR5-6000 MT/s memory, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 graphics card, a 1 TB Corsair M.2 NVMe SSD, a Corsair Nautilus 240mm Liquid CPU Cooler, and an 850 W 80+ Gold Fully Modular PSU. Any insights on whether this can handle Helldivers 2 quietly?

You might want to look into replacing or upgrading your cooling solution. Bad performance could lead your fans to struggle a bit, but how loud they get depends on how well the system handles heat. Keep an eye on that as you play!
I don't think most systems can run Helldivers 2 at 1440p/60fps and stay quiet. I've read performance is pretty rough right now. You might hit 60fps, but when the action heats up, expect dips to a lot lower frames. Just be prepared for some noise during the more intense moments.
Your specs are decent, but the game isn't really optimized at the moment. You may get 60fps initially, but it won't take long before you start noticing frame drops, especially with all the chaos happening during gameplay.
