Recommend me some fans?

Hi all! I'm looking for some bright blue LED 120mm fans that push out a lot of air. I also need them to be a 3 pin connection. I've had a look around and I'm thinking of getting the Corsair AF120 Blue LED edition or the NZXT FZ 120MM. Any other fans I should look at? Thanks!

P.S If anyone has the Corsiar AF120MM in blue LEDs can you upload a photo for me?

If you can find them gentle typhoon 1850 hands down the best I have used. At 1850 rpm they move crazy amount air and also very quite.

Corsair AF120 for your case or SP120 if you require static pressure for a rad

I got a Coolermaster Sickleflow 120mm Blue LED the other day to add as a second fan to my Hyper 612S in a push/pull config. Nice little fan, moves a lot of air at just under 70 CFM ~19 dB-A. Looks good too. A famous high street electrical specialist is doing them for under a tenner.

Bitfenix Spectre or Spectre Pro for me. Best fans I've ever used, look good too.

They must have upgraded those recently- I got two knocking about in a box somewhere, might as well have strapped a Flymo to my rig they were that loud...

They may well have changed the design or something, I dunno. I can barely hear mine running. I think the low startup voltage helps. The standard 120mm Zalman case fans which came fitted to my Z3 Plus make more noise than the CMSM. :cool:
