Maybe u can try your luck buying this. No warraty though
Gelid at Lazada
I only tried ID cooling fan with removable rings though. So far it is decent but the rings is a bit flimsy.
I suggest u get the ID cooling ones. seems the review at newegg are favorable.
ID cooling
Anyways if u still undecided u can try buy one first and test it by mounting it as top exhaust because some FDB/hydro bearing fans don't like to be installed horizontally.
hmmm, just fill it with all aerocool DS white. looks great with black/white.
seems like a good fan but I doubt about fitting those fans as top exhaust because of it so called advanced sleeve bearing. If what they meant of advanced sleeve bearing is FDB then I see no problem fitting it horizontally.
U could invest on a fan controller or 7V adapter to reduce the fan speed hence reduce the noise.

Users in newegg complain about aerocool DS fan when used horizontally... Bearing noise.
Any recommendations for fans that will work great horizontally? Need a silent model for my Fractal R5 build.

that is indeed a pity. their fans are very good sad.gif
you can take the reviews in newegg with a grain of salt. from my experience I have only used deepcools and Coolermaster turbinemaster mach 1.8 horizontally.

IINM all deepcool fans used hydro bearing/FDB and in my experience there are no unusual noise present. decent fans.

coolermaster turbinemaster are good as well. when it is in full speed you only hear the wind gushing out of the case. no bearing noise present. need fan controller or resistor to control its speed. laugh.gif

A fixed speed CoolerMaster Sickleflow X will perform better, in terms on noise level, air flow and price.

prefer 140mm fan for low noise

Well, how low you need? Sickleflow at 19dBA only. Flow and pressure are quite good.

Noctua level at low price
