Hello

i was wondering what would be a good fan to go with, i am currently looking at Aerocool Ds 140 would these be able to push enough air through a 280 rad (radiator)

after comparing the corsair ml to the ek stats eg air flow, static pressure and noise, i'm edging more towards the corsair ml as lower price tag, lower noise and 5 years warranty. the 5 years warranty will be the hard to beat factor

If you have lots of rads I like to use this ran. I have 6 in my system running at 75% and I can't tell there on.

. My case only allows for 2x280 mm rads in top and front, in the future I'll add a gpu and another rad, but the one 280 with ml fans should be fine (I hope )

I plan on going with the Ml Fans as they come with a 5 year warranty this is my selling point and low noise

Pretty sure Noiseblockers are 6 year warranty but not 100% certain.

They have a 6 year warranty and 3 fans for 30£ and the 20db, this is a better deal then the ml fans. I'll just need to keep my ear to the ground to deside before pay day. But the noise blockers have my vote now (noise lockers).. just realized these are 120fans not 140

The 140 fans from noise blockers is 19 I'll just wait a bit longer to get these fans as I now have my heart set on them noiseblockers
