Low noise is subjective to each person as I have not heard any fan @1800 RPM that can not be heard from six feet away in a quiet room. Now imagine six of them… NOISY

I have two systems in one room, one running three Noctua's @ 900 RPM and one running three GentleTyphoon's @ 800 RPM and all I hear is a DDC pump in one of the systems. Any higher fan speeds than that I can hear them as they get too loud for my taste.

FYI, found this little tidbit on OCN:

And now that I look at that second photo again I guess it does look a bit slimmer. May be a slim thickness high density flavor..:confused:

I'm with gcpu though, I can't stand any fan over 1000RPM no matter what fan....so I favor the slow speed options. Not that there isn't a desire for high speed though, I still "hear" about people running 3000+RPM fans. Even more that are perfectly fine with GT15s at full speed where higher density does make more sense.

Yes, the EX is definitely a thinner rad than the RX. That I can confirm.

If this comes in 560mm I will probably pick one up since aqua comp doesn't have them yet :(

Thanks!
Hopefully you can find the time to squeeze in Swiftech's offering as a comparison. I know they were looking for some review on that, and I'm just not setup nor do I have a test method I'm really happy with anymore. I tore down my old bench to scavenge a few temp sensor for pump heat testing.

You're the man when it comes to precision rad testing..:)
Always appreciate your work!!:up:
Cheers!:toast2:

I am going to take a guess here. But chances are it is cheaper to fabricate a thinner radiator w/ a higher FPI than it is to build a thicker radiator w/ a lower FPI.

Actually, I believe it has to do strictly with the amount of metals involved as well as types. Thinner radiators use less precious metals :)

I'm looking to match up some fans to this radiator. What would you suggest for low speed/silence as a preference?
