Scythe Gentle Typhoons are the muts nuts.

Based on a recommendation from 'stulid', I bought a couple of the 1850 RPM models, and a lian li fan controller.

They are absolutely brilliant in terms of noise to performance. I honestly didn't need the fan controller. the difference between 65% and full blast is virtually nothing.

Maxing out Prime at 60C after 2 hours, where the old Bitfenix Spectres would reach 70C after 2 mins of stability testing.

Seriously, these are one of the best fans you can get.

I owe Stulid a beer next time I'm down in Weston (probably wont be till next Summer now but hey ho).

Five Stars *****

Been looking at these for a few days. Would you guys recommend replacing my 2 Noctua NF-P12 in push/pull on my H80?

CSA · 4 Oct 2011 at 22:58

worth replacing 2x Sharkoon Silent Eagle 2000 with these ya think ?

Probably pushes a little less air (1850 vs 2000) but the noise characteristic of the GTs is supposed to be less annoying than a typical like for like speed fan. Worth it? Probably not but that never stops us changing things anyway.

They are faster so will give more airflow through the radiator but will make more noise. I'd probably stick with the Noctua as they are supposed to be excellent fans and although ugly seem to do the job nicely on my heatsink.

thanks , ive just installed speedfan to dial down the speed (and noise) so i'll see how it goes for a few days

Agreed just put 2 on my DH14 @12V running very nice temps.

Dude do you have them in taking air from the back of the case into the case and exhausting out the top? If so what kind of temp decreases are you seeing doing it that way?

iB CoMpL3XiTy · 5 Oct 2011 at 11:17

Got 4 of these on a quad rad and there epic, the airflow is incredible! There only rated at 58CFM but push far more air than fans I've had quoting higher CFM.

Got these running at 1850RPM, not silent, but by no means loud.

There expensive but you get what you pay for.

Got them as intakes yes, but haven't tried it the other way round so couldn't really give you an answer sorry.
