as it says in title i need new fans (2x120mm and 1x80m) to replace my stock fans would liek them to be as powerful but quiet as possible. can i attach a 120mm fan to the side panel grill? and how?

nick_lerwill · 30 Oct 2006 at 12:13

any1 got any ideas? within reasonable price llike under 15 quid max

Akasa ambers 7volted would be my choice

Noni Juice · 30 Oct 2006 at 12:22

1x 120mm and 1x80mm?

Nexus 80mm's at 12V are quiet.

As for 120mm check out Yate Loon's at 5V/7V

i found these SilenX 120mm fans:
Speed: 1500 RPM
Air Flow: 64 CFM
Noise Level: 14 dBA

that can't be right, can it?

only because you sell them

that talk isnt allowed on here.

I've just seen a lot of case fans, and ambers are poor for the prices that are charged for them.

the new scythe fans are also pretty good. no point in saying nexus as they are yates anyway.

The silentx specs are so far out its crazy so no point in recommending them.

I can only say what i believe

nick_lerwill · 30 Oct 2006 at 13:01

seriously can someone just tell me like the best makes without arguing lol

i have heard good things about scythe but they are pretty pricey anything better cheaper? if not i will go for them

cheers

lozza · 30 Oct 2006 at 13:07

Well as i said my choice would be ambers as thats all i've really heard as being good - and they are better than any stock fans i've ever had.

But Yate loons are getting more of a mention recently

maybe you could use the search and see what comes up for ambers and yate loon, silenx etc.

yewens take on the matter

Having used the ADDA, Yates and Ambers I would put them in this order for noise.

12v:

Yates
Ambers
ADDA

7v:

Yates / Ambers (nout in it but the Yates appear to push more air, although not enough to lower temps)
ADDA

5v

Ambers
ADDA
Yates with a high pitched whine

ADDA's will be the stock Lian Li fans.

Have a look for Sharkoon 120mm 1000 fans or Aerocool Turbine 1000

Lol,

Yate Loon's at 5V is about as silent as your going to get while pushing some air.

In that table yewen posted the Yate Loon will win in all situations.
