Fan controller. Or you can use the mobo utility if there is one. Besides, fans have different cfm/pressure:noise ratio too. A lot of people recommended Gentle Typhoon, so I bought a few to try out...my opinion on that typhoon thing, man, once you use that, most probably you won't look into any other fans anymore. I use them on my RX360 rad with fan controller. Either push or pull, you can feel the strong air flow from the other side of the rad, even at half of its speed (I use the 4500rpm unit). My previous CM Excalibur, it just can't compete even running at full speed vs GT at half its speed.

I've never tried higher speed version, 1850rpm is too good already. Hope they will produce 140mm variance as well.

Before I bought that fan, I read through this thread...and the number of this GT on your rig is simply  . So I thought, if a hardcore enthusiast is covering all his rads with this fan, it must be something worth the money...that's one of the reasons I give it a try. And man, I got thank you for your picture. Simply the best fan I have ever bought.

I'm still looking for another 2pcs of GT, coz seems like I could put 12pcs for two quad rads down there... but i need to cut the fan cables shorter in order to avoid cluster
