Hi all! smile.gif

Hoping to ask some of the more veteran people in here, I'm looking to replace the case fans in my CM 690 III and I'm looking for 140mm fans. Maybe around 3 pieces. Criteria I'm looking for are:

1) A good cfm/noise ratio, (I know more cfm = more noise so I'm looking something that has a good combo)
2) PWM fans preferred
3) Non-led black fans preferred
4) I have a budget of roughly RM50 per piece
5) And hopefully something with a nice build qualiy

I've been google-ing here and there. And I found some that interests me, but there are some that I can't find in lelong such as the cougar vortex 140mm fan. Or do you guys have any other suggestions?

I'm very open to suggestions

Thanks in advance! smile.gif

140mm PWM fans is pretty hard to find... I use the standard CM 120 fans.... it's better though not much airflow, but it's quiet.

I also have Jeftlo 120mm fan as my exhaust... i remove the leds and it's non-led now...non-led jetflo is kinda hard or rare. most shop that sells Jetflo often carries white, blue and red leds ver.

My temps are at average 35 - 36c on idle at normal room temperature... and at 26 - 28c under air conditioned room. rclxms.gif

Below pics is the 2 standard fan on top, jetflo 120 (white) removed leds, transparent blade quite nice actually... and then one 120 on the hdd... and 200mm on the front. brows.gif

Thanks for the suggestion! I've had a look at the CM JetFlo's and have taken interest to it, but I'm really keen on getting 140mm fans. One main reason that I'm opting for 140mm is as I have read, bigger fan=high cfm at lower spin rates. And I'm preffering PWM and preferably not going for fan controllers so I can just change it using software and because I'm just plain lazy(and most of all afraid that I forget) to go change the fan speeds during an insta-go-play-game-heavily-for-long-hours session. lol xD

You got the CM690 III thumbs up bro! Kita geng! ;D

And also in your second pic, I saw a cable running through the side of your HDD bracket, with some sort of resistor? perhaps. May I know what it is? tongue.gif

LOL... that's not a resistor... it's led.. the white thingy you see is actually a led-controller.... though not really using it.... lowering or dimming the lights actually made the fans spin slower.... not sure why and how... when i set it to maximum brightness, fans spin normally.

it's okay bro... Anyway, you have that many Cha_fan header? mine got 2 chassis fan header... usually, i put my exhaust on pwm (cha_fan1)

You need to have at least 2 for the top fans... and as for the third fan? O.o

Luckily my mobo got 5 (1cpu+1opt+3sysfan) headers biggrin.gif
Gonna go for a nepton 240m soon, so that leaves me with 3 left. And unluckily my exhaust fan suddenly died today (as if it knew I was looking around for a new fan) T.T

Hi, Oyaji... That Jetflo is silent when you set it to 1,200 rpm. or attach the adapter included so when you first start your pc, your jetflo wouldn't spin at it's max speed during boot.
It's a nice fan.

Those who regularly go to lowyat surely knows about this. As for me, I will only buy from sricomp if the item that I want is only available/cheaper there, usually small2 items like sata cables, case fans etc. For more expensive stuff, it will be viewnet, czone or cycom.

Hi everyone, wondering what fans I should get for my Corsair Air 540, only have few requirements:

1. Fully black.
2. No LEDs.
3. High airflow(not using with radiators), planning to get a 140mm for the rear, and either 2x140mm or 3x120mm for the front.

How about CM Jetflo 120 (white) it's a nice built quality fan with POM Bearing, long-lasting fan? it's priced at RM49 at Viewnet.
