H440 140MM exhaust fan

Drake5 · 24 Jul 2015 at 13:33

Can some one recommend a good 140MM exhaust fan for my H440 case as I don't know which to go for

Have a look at the corsair sp140's and the noctuas mate.

Surely you'd want to be looking at the AF140 for an exhaust fan?

Not tried the AF fans yet, might get a few of them.

As I said in your other thread, it's the intake fans you should be looking at replacing, if you haven't already.

Replacing exhaust is unlikely to make much of a difference, but here are some decent fans anyway:

YOUR BASKET
1 x Alpenföhn 140mm Wing Boost Plus PWM Fan - Black & Blue £14.99
1 x Noctua NF-P14s REDUX PWM 1200RPM 140mm Quiet Case Fan £13.49
Total : £33.47 (includes shipping : £4.16 Ex.VAT).

I haven't replaced the intake fans yet but replacing 3 of them is going to be costly.....

Any good budget ones to replace them with

5960xNvidiaGamer · 25 Jul 2015 at 17:26

What is your budget?

Drake5 · 25 Jul 2015 at 17:43

Don't really want to spend more than £10 per fan considering the case costs £90 on its own

dacads · 25 Jul 2015 at 18:24

That's understandable, how about one of the following bundles

YOUR BASKET
1 x Three Fan Bundle - Akasa AK-FN058 Apache Black Super Silent 120mm Fan - 4 Pin PWM £29.99
1 x Three Fan Bundle - Overclockers UK & SilverStone - 120mm FQ121WC Watercooling Radiator Fan £15.95
Total : £55.54 (includes shipping : £8.00 Ex.VAT).

Yea those Apache Blacks are supposed to be good fans. On paper they look really good and the bundle makes them a great deal.

Would their be much difference between the akaska and the silverstone considering their is a £15 difference

The H440 isn't the greatest air cooling case unfortunately. Sorry probably stating the obvious.

Hard to say without testing both but judging by the specs the apache should be better, in real terms that might be a few degrees difference.

If you don't mind the color then you can grab the following for much cheaper than the black version

YOUR BASKET
1 x Akasa AK-FN057 Apache Super Silent 120mm Fan - 4 Pin PWM £6.66
Total : £8.94 (includes shipping : £1.90 Ex.VAT).

I'm thinking of just getting a new case ..... The R5

dacads · 25 Jul 2015 at 21:58

That wouldn't be a bad idea either, at least you won't have to worry about bad airflow then

Drake5 · 25 Jul 2015 at 22:25

I may also just stick with the H440 but the R5 does look good

D1craig · 26 Jul 2015 at 21:07

Them two cases are both designed for something other than cooling... Silence. You are not going to get great airflow from either as it's hard to keep silence and give good airflow.

I'm sure you can add fans to the top of the h440. Try sticking another exhaust there. Although I can imagine exhausts are not the problem.

As the front is restricted for airflow you should look for some fans with good static pressure.
