PA something (I'd put it on a PA160)...but it depends how much cooling you need.

A BIX *might* be better though.

EDIT: and I stand corrected :D

[MaxxxRacer]

HE120.X or a Heatercore would be best suited to that fan.

[Cathar]

Keep in mind that the fan emits >45dBA noise. I've had these fans. When on at 12v, it is generally quite difficult to hold a phone conversation when in the same room as it both tends to drown out the voice coming down the line as well as interfering with your voice being sent, and person to person communications requires elevated voice levels to be clearly heard.

[MaxxxRacer]

The funny thing is I used to have 6 fans in my case that were that powerful.... yes 6.. and they were all running at 12V.. i could hover things above my case due to all the fans blowing through one outlet on the top... was insane...

and as stew poitned out, you couldnt hold a phone convo.. ppl on the phone thought i was vaccuming when i was talking to them.

[Holst]

Haha max, thats pretty funny.

I used to have two sunon 120mm fans on the top of my case and I could hover a small dog toy ball over one of them if you got it just right.
Any papers near the top of the case would also go flying.

main reason that I watercooled in the first place was noise.

[Gimmpy224]

lol thats hilarious, yea, i probably wont get them then lol.

[MaxxxRacer]

ya, my case was under a desk. I would put papers over the computer and they would attach themselves to the underside of the desk.

lol thats hilarious, yea, i probably wont get them then lol.

I picked up some, I have some additions to my koolance build that I plan on doing. Its coming apart Next week, a bunch of parts are getting replaced :). The second rad in the loop is gettin the deltas, and my fans are going inside the koolance. I'm hoping to lose a few degrees under load :woot: .. so we'll see .. thanks for the link ... Looks like some one else bought one after I did, so there going quick buddy. Pick some up for the hell of it, and run a fan controller to slow them down and bring the noise down just a bit.

[Gimmpy224]

Yea I may get them, cause thats quite the price there.

Im also looking in the TEC forums ^_^ sounds like fun lol, but ill just get my wc up first before I go into extremes.

[Gimmpy224]

There, bought 3 ^_^.
Ill move my comp into my room if I have to, but atm I keep it up on the desk so the dogs wont scratch it.

See, electronic goldmine also has those exact fans... For $3, and sometimes $1, what a rip off.

[Gimmpy224]

hm, whoops lol

prolly a little to loud for me.
But those also probably have shipping required on them.

Came out to the same price, we both spent 21 dollars on 3 fans, and with s&h from elecrtonic place it comes out to $21.42. Works out for me, I dont feel ripped off.

[Gimmpy224]

Yea I forgot about the free shipping :), plus those are just an extra 20 cfm with 10 extra dba.
I may not care about sound but I have my limits too.

Ill let you know how my project goes when i get it together. I'll give the parts about a week to come in, so we'll see then how it all goes.

[Gimmpy224]

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: Awesome :)

[Gimmpy224]

I just got my fans in :) got it 4 days after buying them from ebay lol. bout to test them out, ill let you know what I think.

[Gimmpy224]

honestly, they arnt any louder than my heatsink, I can actualy hear my heatsink over them.
lol but these are some beasts, some huge torque in them :).

and god i but my face in front of them and now i have no eyebrows.

[skycrane]

only 53db???? those are nice and quiet....

could you imagine the noise they would put out with 8 of them on Weapons MonsterCore?

its a bit to loud for me.....

[fareastgq]

I don't think there are any fans that beat the sayno denki's for cfm to noise ratio, even my undervolted panaflos are louder at the same rpm :( I would never get any deltas, there's a certain point where your getting diminishing returns.......

[Gimmpy224]

hey 6$ each plus free shipping ( got it in 3 days )

and since im trying to get some nice performance, i think it was quite the deal.
but yea im only putting only 3 on a radiator, will be mounted on top of the outside of my case though.
