Does anyone have much experience with these fans? I really want a (below 20db) silent LED fan which pushes plenty of air.

These seem to be really good from what I've read. Bit expensive though at about £20 each, but I'd be willing to buy 1 as an exhaust fan for my case.
 
Hi there,

I'm using one of the SilenX blue 120mm fans as an exhaust fan at the back of my case.

I've got it hooked up to a fan controller and turned down to its minimum setting. It is pretty quiet and in combination with 2 80mm SilenX fan intakes at the front the motherboard temperature according to Asus Probe is 33 degrees at present.

Thanks for the reply :) . So you'd recommend one then? There seems to be a real gap in the market for good LED Case fans which push decent amounts of air. Especially 92mm! I'm running a Thermaltake Soprano case which has 2 x 120mm and 1 x 92mm fans. Can't find a good 92mm blue LED case fan anywhere.

I'm guessing I'm gonna have to get a cheap one and just use a fan controller.
 
Well, I've not had any problems with any of the SilenX fans yet so I would recommend them. However I'm not exactly the worlds leading authority on LED case fans :)
 
Yeah I have one LED Silenx. I use it on my Heatsink for the CPU. Its not on a fan controller but you can barely hear it anyway! I did replace my Akasa amber with it. If you're not bothered about LED's I would definitely go for the amber, I think it was even quieter, assuming you can hear the difference, I really thought the difference was negligible.

Think I'll be ordering 1 or 2 of them when it comes to building my next system :D

Thanks guys for your replies. I'm really suprised that more people haven't got an opinion on them. Maybe I should have posted it on the Case Central section. Might ask on there nearer the time.

Cheers,

Yeh I'd heard about those AC Ryan fans! Think that's going to have to be my 92 mm option. Will have to get a fan controller as I dont want it to be that loud lol.

Ideally want to keep noise below 20db on all fans. How much did you pay for it?
