Fan for Fenrir

Frozennova · 2 Jul 2010 at 21:52

Got my fenrir in earlier and very impressed with the cooling ability after coming from a Freezer 7 Pro

Gone from 60'c [email protected] 1.325v (Folding) to 59'[email protected] 1.45v (IBT)

My only issue is the noise from the fan and was wondering what would be my best option to replace the fan with without sacrificing cooling performance.

Currently got my eye on the Coolink Swif2 120P as it matches the airflow of the Fenrir's stock fan while remaining 11db quieter

I was torn between that fan and the akasa vipers when i was getting some myself.

I eventully went for the vipers as they added abit more speed (performance), for the same noise level.

But to be honest both will be loud running at full whack, fasted i set mine to run are about 1200rpm, good mix of performance to noise, but knowing if i need a quick burst of full speed that its there.

So if u willing to spend the £4-5 more for the viper, id say get that, if not then the coolink is'nt bad.

Think ive found my answer in the Silenx iXtrema fans.

90cfm and 18db, thats more air and quiter than my case fans

There good as case fans, not so sure about on heatsinks, as the key to using on heatsinks is static air pressure and not CFM.

By all means give them a try, but out of that or the coolink or akasa viper the Silenx would be last on my list.

Speaking of Titan Fenrir...anyone thought something along the line of "it would be great if Titan Fenrir can using push/pull configuration..."?

I made a push pull config using a few generic cable ties and two noctua fans. Works wonders!
