    Scythe GentleTyphoon

    Just got mine, it definitely rivals Noctua for silent fans. It may even be better due to the higher end motor, but time will tell.

    Well, they're about as ugly as my Noctua P12's are

    How much do these run? About the same as the Noctuas?

    So slightly cheaper.

    And I'll be testing it more thoroughly once I move my parts back to my Torture Rack.
