didnt ur 540 air came with 2x140cm fan for intake? u wanna change it?
since u will be plugin all ur fan directly to PSU (and not really concern about noise), check their speed @ RPM of the fan...
Just check the RPM of that both 12cm & 14cm bitfenix spectre pro u mention...

E.g: 3x12cm fan (w/1000RPM each) VS 2x14cm (w/1600RPM each); that the 2x14cm is blowing lots more air compare to 3x12cm configuration... plus, more quiter also
So i would choose the latter... if iwas opposite... then choose the earlier...

Noted with thanks.

Yeap planning to change them, thanks for the info too.

this evening went to viewtech, they also got silencio FP120... 1 full large bag... RM59.00/each
got one fella bought 4x of emm...

Simply wrong.

3x120 will produce significantly more air pressure than 2x140, even if the 120s are at a lower RPM. You have to remember that when a fan goes into a case, its air pressure is pretty much cut by nearly half, with or without a filtered front panel.

but still depend on type of fan also right?

Yes.

But whatever type of blades, 3x120 > 2x140, always.

either way, OP gonna blast everything directly from PSU...

planning to replace my standard rear fan to Cooler Enermax T b Apollish RED. is it good? im worry about the size and performance. should i take 12 or 14?

Enermax fans are okay, do go for the 140mm, really recommend because of the quieter operation

hard to find around jb area.. even the 140mm. anyone know how to get it..

The only one that I know selling enermax is him

Lingloong

since you're in JB might try to look at SG perhaps?

hey guys..
just dropping by and seeking advice from u guys.

currently using arctic cooling P12 and pro series, which is still kicking ass on my old rig..
these fans were quite cheap,low noise, and performance was the best (during its era lah of course )
i bought them over in garage sales section and got a decent bargain

now i cant find any more stocks on the market, obsolete??
since i will be builing a new rig,
come share and recommend me good 120mm case fans for my new rig..
hope it is in par or better than my old case fans
thanks all!

regards,
icp

Actually ur F12 will still kicking ass even now. Unless u want to change case theme to other colour I suggest u stick with ur F12 until it dies lol.

naww,im keeping my ancient fans with my ancient rig, not planning to sell them..
too much memories yo
maybe can be used for torrenting movies like _____ materials (fill in the blank yourself)

im eyeing on these:
1. SCYTHE Grand Flex PWM 120mm
2. Spectre PRO All White 120
3. or i just stick with F12 PWM, just found out hikari85 selling them

any other suggestions? thanks

Viewnet has many case fans on display, Noctua/CM/Aerocool/Xigmatek/NZXT/Thermaltake/... macam-macam ada. you can go and test it out yourself. if you are lazy to visit lowyat, and you trust my judgement:

I wonder what case are u using?
that aside I would suggest prolimatech usv14. sure its thin but still good as case fans. some more got static booster if u need that extra static pressure. double bearing fan type.

lazada got some gelid fans for sale so you might want to check it out.

other than that, pay a visit to lowyat. got many fans to choose from.

Hi, any recommendation for 12cm case fan to be fitted to thermaltake H23 case? and ofcourse looking for best bang for buck those ah.. thanks in advance !

I'd simply put either a pair of these fans at the front and keep the stock fan at the rear.

Scythe gentle typhoon AP15
Arctic cooling f12 pwm
san ace 9G1212M401

Hi is there any thing I can improve in my airflow of my rig?
Rocking a cm storm trooper. Case fans are basic. Did not changed.
I5 4670k with h100i replace with sp120 fans

What can be done to improve my case airflow? Have lots of space

Hi guys, currently I am using thermalright ty 141 for my megahalems. Due to its colour which is not black I am now thinking about replacing it with a single prolimatech usv 14 with static booster or 2 cm silencio fp120 pwm. So which one is better?
