Storm Trooper Case fans

[Adam_101]

Hello All,

Need some advice on the top Rear fan 140mm for a Storm Trooper case - needs replacing! Ideally would like one that can be used by the case fan controller (think its 3pin).

Also need advice on a 120mm case case to go on the side panel blowing onto the graphics card please!

Thanks guys you rock!

then again the rear fan can be 120mm so may get 2 of the 120mm Thank you guys for your help!!. Also quick question, when on full speed did you notice any whine type noise?

Nope, very quiet indeed, the performance editions obviously give you more noise but its all airflow noise....like a strong wind blowing.

Got some corsair SP120 quiets myself. Great fans aside from the noctua fans don't think you could get any better. Then again can't stand the colors of the noctua's, heard the gentle typhoons are pretty decent, any thoughts on them?

Was thinking the same thing with the noctuas, the colors kinda drive me mad! . I think the the AF are good though especially judging by Stulids review but will look at those ones too, Thank you

The AF120's seem kinda pointless, since the SP120's move more air at the same noise level.

Hey guys, does anyone know if the af120s will work with the storm trooper case fan controller?

Mate plugged it into the 3pin socket the stock rear fan was plugged into but it doesnt seem to alter the speed?

Thanks

They should be fine. All my stock fans have been replaced. Are you sure the controller panel has power?
