Fans on CPU & in case

[Angel_Rex]

i was looking at getting a new pu cooler to replace my freezer 64 pro and some new fans.

the F64 pro hits 2300rpm on a 92mm fan and its audioable but i game with headphones so dont mind so much. I would love it quieter tbh and think 1200rpm is a nice level.

my questions is should i get 3 Akasa AK-FN059 120mm Ultra Quiet Viper Cool Fan's to go in my elite 335 -

one front (to replace akasa quiet)
one rear (to replace 120mm that came with elite 335)
and one to go on the zalman flex that im looking at getting.


thoughts?

i can control the fans via mobo or fan control i have so thats not too much prob.

I idealy want a fan that will push a lot of air when running slower, say 1200rpm - does the viper fit the bill?

Oh and a noise question - will a 92mm fan at 2300 rpm be noisier than a 120mm fan running at 2300rpm?

Cheers tealc, much appreciated.

The 92mm fan on the freezer 64 pro is tolerable at 2300rpm, if the viper at full 1900rpm is ever a bit quieter than that and pushes more, ill be happy

I would rather get the 1900 & restrict it as it at least gives me the option to up it if needed.

On the new heatsink, i cant decide between the zalman performa, zalman flex & viper fan or the spire thermax eclipse II.........
