Which 92mm fan

Looking at getting a 92mm to go on my hr-03/r600 which of these would be best and is quiet. I'm not always sure i believe the db(a) ratings.

Akasa AK-184-L2B Amber Ultra Quiet 92mm Fan - 3 pin
Sharkoon Silent Eagle 1500 92mm Fan - 3/4 Pin
Xilence XPF92R Red Wing 92mm Quiet Fan
Zalman ZM-F2 92mm Silent Case Fan - 3 Pin

Leaning towards the xilence as have heard good things about it for the money.

My main aim is to get decent cooling on my 2900xt but quieter than the hoover i have at the moment.

Sharkoon, i swear by them as do many others.

Great fan, great price

Seconded, have a sharkoon silent eagle 2000 120mm and it pushes a lot of air for the noise.

Sharkoon only do a 1500 at 92mm, not a 2000

Would it still be the best? I'm also after one.

PK!

I have the Akasa amber 92mm strapped onto my 6800le copper heatsink. Reduced temps by a minimum of 15 degrees and is very quiet inside the case (You don't really hear it, even with the 120mm's turned right down). The 120mm versions are not exactly quiet though. They are only about £3.50 each or something like that as well
