140mm fan recomendations for WC radiator

!TIMMY! · 1 Jul 2009 at 13:59

I have been looking for some alternative fans to my 140mm Yate Loons (1000rpm), but don't know what the static pressure is of current available 140m fans. My fans pull air through the radiator and out the top of the case. I am looking for some non LED, around 1200rpm fans.

Any recommendations? Sharoon, Xigmatek?

The Xigmatecs look pretty good as they are pretty silent and push a lot of air. Mind you the Sharkoon Golf Ball ones seem to be very good aswel however i dunno if they come in the 140mm form you're asking for.

Im looking about for a new 140mm fan, the one that came in my antec 300 case is a bit load for my liking!

Any suggestions?!

Timmy needs static pressure, Stoned needs high airflow at low noise. Different fans.

Cant suggest one for the radiator, but this scythe will do you right for a case fan, has weird mounting holes though

Good roundup here including 140mm fans and some static pressure info but from the manufacturers and not tested:

These should be good for radiators if they live up to the manufacturers claim

Quality link, I will read through it tonight. I read some reviews of the Xigmatek on Newegg and it seems that it will make a ticking noise when mounted horizontally
