Hello,

Currently I have Sharkoon Silent Eagle 2000 120mm Fan on the cooler, but I find it somewhat noisy at idle. It keeps the temp around 42C.

I've looked at Akasa AK-FN059 120mm Ultra Quiet Viper Cool Fan, "Fan speed: 600 -1900 RPM" worries me a little though as the Sharkoon one is 2000RPM.

Is it good enough? or perhaps something else?

Also, if the suggest fan is really good, I might get 2 for the cooler for push/pull config. I've found the fan clip for the cooler but I am unsure what wire I need for the 2nd fan as there's only one fan header, where would I plug the 2nd fan? :).

Thank you
 
Indeed it's a good cooler (I consider it better than H50 personally).

I think the fan it self is pretty silent, its just spinning at 2k RPM every day, every hour that's creating the sound when the air comes out the cooler fins. The viper will fix that issue when it runs the fastest when it actually needs to.
