are these specs good for a 80mm fan as i am looking for a quiet 80mm fan as i intend to put 2 or 3 of these in:
Power: 1W, Speed: 2200rpm approx, Airflow: 35cfm approx,Noise: 25dBA approx, Connector: 3 Pin main board with speed sensor (3-4 pin molex adaptor also supplied)
 
Unfortunately if you have to get 80mm then you'll end up with a poor noise to cfm ratio. The akasa amber moves 25cfm at 20db but this is still not very much, whereas the 120mm moves 44 at 18db. If you must get 80mm then the amber seems best for noise.
 
good luck in finding an 80mm fan that shifts 50cfm which only produces 18db's of noise.

I use Akasa Amber 80mm's. They seem to produce the best overall performance.

its possible, my coolermasters do that.


They don't.

Checked their site, none match that spec (none from any company do, obviously). The only way you could ahve got those specs are if it is a speed controlled fan showing the db for min speed and airflow for max speed.
 
Like I said in my post...they have listed the noise level at it's MIN SPEED and the airflow at it's MAX SPEED.

Spec may be right but it does not push 40cfm at 22db as you probably think
