Which fans for my system

almightydutch · 9 Feb 2015 at 12:20

Planning on replacing my fans as they've been in for a few years and are now starting to get a bit whiney.

I have a Corsair 800d case with XSPC RX360 rad at the top (3 x Push fans) and have a 40mmx120mm rad(don't know make) again using 1 x push fan.(could go push pull but rather not)

What fans would you recommend for such a system? Less noise, more cooling required...they don't need to look pretty!!

No one at all have a vague clue whats best?

Iv'e got the Corsair 750D.

I have 3x120mm fans in the top above the rad in a pull configuration, they are all Parvum Systems F1.0.

I have 4 other fans in the case, all intakes, 2 in the front, one in the base and one in the rear, all Alpenfohn 140mm Wing Boost 2's.

The only noise from the case is the whir from the watercooling pump, the fans are silent until you really ramp them up to max and even then it's only air flow that you hear.

I have corsair sp120 quiet edition for my build and I would highly recommend them as they are relatively cheap and provide great silent performance

I'm using Akasa Piranhas on my 2xRX360 in P/P and I like them a lot. Can run them as low as 600 rpm which is almost silent.

EKWB Vardar F2's or F3's should be very good for rads, with them being basically a clone of Gentle Typhoon fans.

OcUK do triple packs of them as well, which will save you a few £££'s.

Don't get the F3's if you are looking at Vardar's, the F4 is an improvement in every way as they have a wider duty cycle, meaning they can spin both faster and slower than the F3
