QUOTE(ntw @ Jan 8 2016, 03:08 AM) i have tested aerocool shark fan without restriction, the wind is quite strong. no idea about the airflow with restriction though. if 120mm, I strongly recommend the CM Jetflo!! the fan is the strongest I have tested Sickle flow are worth to consider, cheap, quiet and deliver decent air flow. |

QUOTE(bonez_xy @ Jan 8 2016, 11:09 PM) Based on what i read in this thread, sickleflow is too noisy. Am i wrong? Thats why i trying to look another fan. I removed my CPU cooler, Silverstone AR03's fan to 2 Sickleflow Xs and it is not noisy.It is only 19dBA, can transfer good amount of flow and best is rm22-27 only for 1 fan. |

QUOTE(Oyaji @ Jan 9 2016, 01:56 PM) Maybe u can try your luck buying this. No warraty though Lazada not the best place, Lelong are offering better price.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. |

QUOTE(bonez_xy @ Jan 15 2016, 10:48 AM) already put 4 sickleflow x in my case, 2 front and 2 top exhaust. Mine are put on CPU cooler, GPU so far so good with original fan.now my gpu temp on load 55C +/-, but cpu <65C.  When the fans are clean, my AMD can have thermal margin of 48°C and typical temperature at 42°C without air cond. |

QUOTE(bonez_xy @ Jan 15 2016, 12:20 PM) for me the noise is acceptable, not too noisy. if cannot tahan the noise,then wear headphone Well, CPU cooler air flow should be blowing toward the rear exhaust fan while GPU cooler should be going to the sides. feel awkward when my gpu temp < cpu temp . planning to use 3rd party cpu cooler but i think it will block the exhaust fan to suck out the gpu heat.  |

QUOTE(AlanSiew @ Jan 25 2016, 09:37 AM) But the flow performance only ~50% from Sickleflow, price also double of Sickleflow What I'll do is, match the noise level to CPU cooler. No point of having casing that "silent" but CPU cooler not. Anyway, another important factor of getting a quiet CPU is the mounting feet of a casing.

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Apr 16 2016, 01:16 PM) A fixed speed CoolerMaster Sickleflow X will perform better, in terms on noise level, air flow and price. |

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Apr 16 2016, 01:53 PM) prefer 140mm fan for low noise Well, how low you need? Sickleflow at 19dBA only. Flow and pressure are quite good. |

QUOTE(Oyaji @ Apr 17 2016, 07:13 AM) last time I saw one selling at All IT hypermarket at lowyat. they have a bunch of deepcools there. Actually in Lowyat Plaza are more on window shop only, the price are not that cool to begin with now.Haven't tried sickleflow X. Should be fine since it used a better bearing compared to the previous one. Should give a try on Sickleflow and see how it goes  QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Apr 17 2016, 10:42 AM) Noctua level at low price http://www.lelong.com.my/noctua-casing-fan...7-01-Sale-I.htm19dBA at full speed which is same as CM's. But I can buy 4 already with the same price  |

QUOTE(Edifier @ Apr 17 2016, 09:22 PM) You should study the reason why Noctua Fan so expensive first. Well, till today I still don't understand why people like to eat bird nest.Expensive does not means good. Cheap does not means bad. |
