Replacement H100 Fans

Guys ,

I want to replace the fans on my Hydro H100 cooler as they are so damn noisy , I`m thinking of these two ...

BitFenix Spectre LED RED 120mm Fan

or

Phobya Nano-G 12 PWM 1500rpm RED LED Case Fan
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-005-PB&groupid=701&catid=57&subcat=4

what do you think?

I've changed the fans on my H100 to Akasa Apache's and they are silent. Even when the H100 is switched to full they are still more silent than my 580GTX.
Both of the fans you've listed should work but I get the impression they are more aimed towards the case and not a heatsink.

Thanks,

The phobya fan I used in the video was the Nano-2G so it's a little different.

Both are good very good fans though.

I can't recommend fans I haven't tested but the Akasa Apache and Viper and the Scythe GT are very well loved here.
