Super Lanboy fan replacement

whiskycycle · 19 May 2009 at 23:28

As per title, does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can replace the about-to-die fans in my old Antec Super Lanboy with?

Want 2 x 120mm that are as quiet (or quieter) than the existing fans and which will have a long operating life as the box is used as a media server that's always on.

Fans will be cheaper than a new case, but I'm open to that as well (Case Central's that way>>>>).

cheers all!

Yate loons will be the standard answer.

I use scythe s-flex (1600rpm in my case) and am very pleased with them. Almost silent at 12V, amazing at 7.
120 x 120 x 25 mm I assume?

I have a silverstone 1200rpm 120mm fan on mine and I really can't hear it over my HDD's even when almost stick my ear right upto it (I know that was dangerous to do, but I did it anyways

)

Ah, good times. I caught my hair in a case fan. Less learnt there

Note to self (and others): do not accidentally touch a 60mm Delta screamer with index finger whilst it's running....

Back on track, Yate Loons looking good. Haven't been able to take apart the Lanboy to check the front fan depth though, so can't measurements.

Try sticking your finger into a 120mm Delta @ 4,300rpm... That wasn't cool.
