What's the quietest 120mm fan?

also is there a 3pin controller i can run 4 fans off, I only need them around 200 rpm?

thanks guys those 800rpm ones look good. not looking for a chunky controller like that, just something with a variable resister in it so I can control the speed precisely and something small and hidden.

Just a question, do you need a fan controller to chose whether you want the fan running on 5v, 7v or 12v? How do you choose?

we'll no I don't need to be able to select it, I need it to set to a very low voltage, 5v max. Maybe below if the fan will spin up. But what I do want is that one controller to control all 4 fans. 3 Rad 1 on res. I don't need a large amount of air movement just a little.

Sorry lol, that was an independant question what I was asking to others

lol I thought it was a bit odd.

generally it will be a 15 volt controller with some sort of veritable resistor or series of resistor to change it down to 10 and 5volts. Some are true veritable resistor so you can have any value between 0-15volts.

change of plan, not water cooling now, just want to get my comp as quite as possible.

is the Noctua S12 still the one to go for?
or is there something quieter now?

Also whats a quite 939 cooler?
