i wanna attach good rear fan/s to the back of my casing.
looking at either 2 80mm ones or 1 120mm fan. my casing can support either one...

my question:
can i simply buy any fan? as i know, can blows one direction. either in, or out of the case....

so how can i know which coolermaster/ thermaltake/ delta fans blow OUT of the casing?
i wanna blow hot air OUT of casing..... or just take the fan , and flip the orientation, that'll do the trick?

there will be only 1 way which is 1 side sucking air in and 1 side blowing air out..
u can just flip the orientation of the fan if ur current fan is blowing in air to ur casing...

if u r thinking to buy fan, take into consideration the rpm of the fan and the cfm of the fan...

Just go buy a Vantec Spectrum UV Led 120MM Fan...

It's nice, it's still not too noisy, large CFM

Better to use 1 120MM fan, don't use 2 units of 80MM fans...

1 120MM fan is higher cfm, more silence also...

Rather then to get 2 units of 80MM fan that is to match the CFM of one unit of 120MM fan, then, you'll get a noisy setup...

You don't want your system to be noisy aren't ya?

What about the fan that sell in Dinster's bulk order?I think the 120mm fan also quite good also right?

And what kind of fan is that?

I malas la nak pegi check dinster punya bulk...

I think he's probably referring to the Evercool series. Yeah those are a decent choice too.
If it's a rear case fan with no obstructions like fan filters or grills, you can use any 120mm fan that spins around 800-1200rpm. Should be quiet and move enough air for most needs.

For intake fan that might have a restrictive fan filter tho, more fan blades + a thicker frame would be better. (eg. the Silverstone that is 32mm thick with 9 blades)

But his thread is closed for temporary.I also cannot get the CPU fan him now.Forget it...

right! thanks.. .
however, i chekced all these various fans last night... been up till 5 doing homework and checking fans la this is what i found

Spectrum UV LED Fans = RM 20 (bombman's bulk)
>> 80x80x25mm
>> 3 UV LEDs
>> 3pin-to-molex convertor
>> 2900 rpm, 36 cfm 12V, 3W, 34dBA
>> Available colors : Orange-Green , Blue-Green , Green , Blue , Orange (see pics below)


2. Thermaltake 120x120x25 mm Ultra UV Fan Series (Specs : 54.5 cfm , 12V, 0.3A max, 21dBA) - RM 25 (bombman)


and of course, coolermaster's NEON LED fan
Fan Dimension 120x120x25 mm
Number of LEDs 4
Voltage (Volt) 12 VDC
Current (Ampere) 0.15 A±10%

looking at the noise and air flow, i say thermatake has the best among them.. shawty... where u find vantec spectrum 120mm? can't seem to find it on their websiette... even bombman's bulk don't have 120mm....where u bougth urs?


saw evercooll don't like the look of it. .but yeah... thanks.... silverstone hahaha.. when i rob a bank... i'll buy few, one for u too crazy exp siaaa....!

if u intend to take the thermaltake id suggest u test it out first. theyre notorious for understating their noise levels on their fans

usually a fan with that kinda CFM would be 25-31dba

i have to agree.... madman... their airflow/noise ratio... seeems out of this world!

coolermaster lor i guess... but then... i'm still looking for vantec... shawty's recommendation... i've seen one of his posts... he used vantec (should be 120mm) for his old xp120....just curious coz i can't find vantec spectrum LED which is a 120mm....

Huhh?

How come u can't find it?
Have u search at lowyat plaza?

Anyway, just got some information about the evercool fans that it's somekind faster rather than the Vantec 120MM...

Vantec maximum speed is 1600RPM

While the Evercool that dinster bulks is 2000RPM [Blue Led]

And the noise is kinda acceptable too...

But the problem with that Evercool fans are it's super transparent...

I hate that kinda fan...

I love those fans that have multi colours on it like the Vantec Spectrum UV led and the Thermaltake Smart fan...

Plain colour fans are so lame...

actually the vantecs has been "replaced" with a brand called Vizo (or sumthin like that) the specs, packaging, etc etc basically everything looks the same as the vantecs fans

didn't search lowyat bro.. but did a search on their website. i mean, if their website don't have, of course low yat also dun have right?
her'es the website..
http://www.vantecusa.com/product-pcmods.html

shawty, kalo blh tolong poin aku kat right direction, i'd be grateful. dah lama aku cari dah kat google dan lowyat. no one sells 120mm.

evercool hmmmm..... also another option to consider...

Err, kat website vantec mmg takde...

Vantec website only show the specification about the Vantec Spectrum UV 80MM Led Fan...

Here in lowyat.net takde org jual...

Tapi kalau kat Lowyat Plaza mmg ada jual...
Konpem...

high quality fan kot...sbb tu tak pamer kat website
anwyyas, thanks... appreciate it! lowyat here i come..

eh, agaknye brapo harga fan nih? rm30?

Yeah Silverstone fans are bloody pricey, but it's not so bad when you consider the free fan controller. It's terribly noisy at full speed ~2400rpm tho.

Someone here on the forum had a bulk for Evercool Ever Green fans too. They look decidedly gay, but they're only 800rpm which means very nice and quiet.

My own experience? The CM UV/LED Silent series are really quiet and good. Summore only RM20 each, cannot beat the value there. I'd love to try the Nexus and Yate Loons and Scythe S-Flex fans, but those aren't anywhere near available here.

nice reply.. appreciate ur kindness! yeah...was actually shoootng for either CM or thermaltake, beofre i posted here that is...

Let me just help clarify dat not evry model/item may necessarily be listed in the websites. Googling 'll b more helpful

And FYI, 120mm Vantec Spectrum UV LED Fans do exist, 2gether w/ 90mm one. Only dat I'm not selling due to pricing factor

see if you can buy an antec tricool or a jap made panflo at 80cfm. i have 5 tricool on high settings and my computer barely hums

I think for 120mm fans, ideal is 2000 rpm to get some good CFM. Those that run lower (my CM tri-blade) is silent of course but not effective enuf. 120mm vantec I think I saw in Sri Comp. I can't recall where I bought mine, either sri or AllIT.

Today I might go buy a Cavalier 5 cos I cannot stand the vibration and small fans on my AVF casing.

how bout these fans?
http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...dpost&p=8088712
im thinking of getting ultra-90 + ac fans
but 43+cfm for 92x92 fan, aint that low?

but it seems AC's fan are the highest led cfm fan thats available to got
*huw much a vantec uv-led 90 cost?

antec tricool is i think 80cfm about for like 30 dba

i'm using 2x coolermaster blue LED 120mm and 1x silverstone but i can't remember the model. hehe.

if you want silent, it's good to have fan controller.

EDITED : remember now, Silverstone FM 121.

This post has been edited by goldfries: Sep 23 2006, 12:16 PM

its a whooping RM70 a set
so, any AC fans users here?

can't remember. bundled with my scythe. it's a really nice fan for my exhaust, previously i was using another CM blue LED for exhaust.

the silverstone is clearly better for me as my system relies heavily on air flow.

the CM blue LED comes at about 42cfm at most, the SS FM121 does a whopping 110cfm - so it really helps a lot when i want to push out all the hot air trapped inside.

It highly depends on your budget, I'll recommend a panaflo or delta if you don't need the "bling bling".

I doubt theres any AC Ryan fan users here, the person currently selling in bulk isnt getting much demad at all and as far as I am concerned no other place in Malaysia is selling it.

RM70!!!

Mahalnya...
Watpe kipas memahal camtu?

its a silverstone
btw it comes with fan ctlr

Anyways how much for the 90mm ones very diff to find nowadays..since my casing has 90mm fan adaptor on the side panels.if i cut it to 120mm will cost me more also i will lose the side fin....

so far i've given in to the fact that vantec sells kickA22 fans....cheap la.....
cm also not too bad....

the rest....silverstone...... exp..
who wanna give me... i graciously, willing accpet!
hahaha!

thanks tho for all ur input... appreciate...
btw, delta holds the highest position for loudest, baddest fans right?

u forgot one of the most expensive.yo miraged u found any 90mm uv led let me know aite darn hard to find arr..i look high and low at lyplaza still cant find arr...

@styloe

dude....ur definately looking in the wrong places la weiii.....

u can find them in ALL IT and also in Sri Computer... brand is either Vantec or Vizo. both oso packaging look alike one.. go back and check again!!!

vantec??? got ar in all IT?
expensive ar?

hmmmm... i want vantec...
moderno.. no stock
ishhh....


styloe... i don't think i''ll be going lowyat... too far... not worth the time and cost for a fan

actually judging by the lack of vantecs and overflow of the Vizo i think (and this is just a guess) Vertex Distribution has decided to stop bringing in the vantecs and replaced them with th Vizo. either way...they both have the same specs....hell...even the damn packaging looks bloody alike.

i wonder when stock for the cable sleeves will be replenished though...

Based on the spec Vizo is better than Cooler Master.. RM25 if i'm not wrong for 80mm..go up too 2500rpm+ and got led too.

no la if 80mm got la im looking for the bloody 90mm ones .so darn bloody hard to find...if hi speed ones can get butta im kinda lookin to get a silent setup.unlike me,my roomy stok fan is bloody annoying its deffanning to my ears LoL

vizo is dont produce much noise..if you are looking for 90mm then you can try the cooler master Viewnet has it..

once agin i say dude....ur definately looking in the wrong place.... ive seen tonnes of 92mm vantecs there ler... quick quick....go check again

hmmm..... why bother wth 80mm fans... .
go 120mm
less noise, more airflow...
anywyas, i think it's cooler master for me. ish.... no one has vantec. not even moderno or dinster, or bombman....

Viewnet ka...darn i must be looking at girls most of the time LoL...maybe i'll go this weekend.Fasting month,i dont have extra stamina to drop to loyat plaza after work... ok thnx madman...

ehh.... puasa... i tot should try to abstain from looking at girls!
puasa is refrainment from 'luxuries' of life
kidding man ignore me.

hmmm... i dont' wanna go down the CM road of fans
looks like i've no choice..
with this kinda budget

so, anyone surveyed the prices for vizo/vantec, cm n thermaltake 92/120mm uv/led fans at lowyat last week?
i dont seem to have the energy to go there n might juz order from moderno =__="

ordering from moderno would be the cheapest la.. .
no need to survey survey all...

HOWEVER....
moderno is OUT OF STOCK for vantecs
tried to order from him.....ARGHHHHHHHHH

anywyas just getting cooler mater....
budget a bit tight... so yeah...stick wtih the cheaper alternative which are in stock atm

@miraged
dude.. get the vizo la... aiyoh.. y u want the vantec so much?? theyre the same ler.. (at least for the 120mm la). u should check that one out first. but of course if u wan silent then nuttin beats the CM la... even the vantec 80mm is loud to me

it's not that i WANT vantec and not vizo...
i dont' have time to go lowyat.... no point i go all the way..petrol toll and time just to get a fan.
that's why i wanted to just get from moderno since he can COD in subang.
then he said eh didn't have.....

so CM lorrr ;(
but yeah... i WILL check out vizo...

ooooooooooo.......wakakkakkaka...in that case i understand...sorry sorry

i didnt know moderno sells vantecs tried asking bombman?

anyway...about the vizo...like i mentioned previously.. vertex distribution brings in the vantecs and vizo items... but with the shortage of vantecs lately and abundance of vizo.. i get the feeling that vertex is replacing the vantec with the vizo. so i wouldnt keep my hopes up of the vantecs being restocked.

oh btw, what is the power input for the vantec/vizo?
3pins or molex?
checking out the fans spec, i identified the CM series use 3pin while thermaltake use molex.
afaik, we can control the fan speed if we use 3pin (provided ur mobo supports smart fan control)

should i try the ACRyan fans? abit pricey but they mentioned the led can be turned of w/o affecting fan operation


This post has been edited by e-jump: Sep 26 2006, 07:38 PM

AFAIK the vizo comes with 3 pin and a 3pin-molex converter just like the CM and vantec.

ianho bought the vizo 120mm and it came with the 3-pin

hmm, vizo looks geng
60+cfm for 120mm
juz wondering the price.
damn no energy to go lowyat these days
*they dont come in 92mm size

This post has been edited by e-jump: Sep 26 2006, 07:43 PM

price for 120mm is RM35 in ALL IT if i remember correctly which is the same as the vantecs....specs oso same... didnt see much difference in the specs.

as for the 92mm size.. i did see quite a few the other day but i cant remember whether they were vantec or vizo coz both their packaging looks so alike

hi, if u want good design and nice custom made fans, go look for AllnGap. he got a lot of designs. i just got two fans from him. very powerful and good looking.

ohhh
all it for RM35....
hmmm....
my friend going threre...
will ask him...
btw...all IT which floor ar?
the fella quite noob in window shopping..
and i ... have no inkling as to which level already...
anyone?

its on 3rd flr. its pretty big for him too miss it =__="
oh well, i'll give acRyan fans a try (if i manage to get it)
looks like at the same price as vizo, i get to disable led, 70+cfm n sleeved extra

AcRyan, yerp, it's good, but hard to find here...
There's someone here bulking it right?

Vizo...
Can someone put the picture of that fan here?

Never seen em...

tu ha e-jump dah letak kat atas tu... gi tengok betul2

and ive also put a link to their webbie

Eh eh, tak nampak la...
huhuhuhu

.......
anwyays.....
getting my fan tmrw.

Huh?
What kind of fan?

Don't u wanna tell us the model of the fan you're buying?

shawty... read on top laa
i getting Vizo. late ady... go sleep

i get a china brand uv led fan frm lyp, rm25... 80++ cfm... 120mm

how noisy?

just like medium speed panaflo, silent than tt smart case fan...

Mind to let us know is tat fan noisy or not? TQ

guys the panaflows are the best bet for value / performance/noise...
or can always get the uv fans that uglyvamp carry ..beter airflow than cm's and more silent... i got one selling..so pm me if anyone wants...

Hey miraged, mind sharing us some information about you're vizo fan?

How was it?

bougth fr ALL IT.
Rm35.
bought UV LED one. 12 cm . it's not as noisy as .... zalman fan, or powerlogic atrix 500T fans turned at max.
but it has more airflow than those stock aerocool masstige 12cm fans.
performance... errr... hard to say la... how to tell u all?

Just got myself this...

http://www.silverstonetek.com/products-fm122.htm

Its surprisingly quite versatile..being able to go from 800rpm to 2400rpm.

Also it's 32mm thick so there's a bit more oomph there.

Now I got no money...else I'll change all my fans to this

The pre-requisite pimp shot

what are u pointing at?
the fan on the CPU HS?

Yup..ini benda.


Attached thumbnail(s)

That's a lianli case right bro sniper?

Anyway...
That fan...

Silverstone, cost a bomb...
But, it's nice, beautiful, and performs really really nice...

Just check the link that u gave, when on maximum speed, it's 40++DB...

Do u utilize that fan on maximum speed 24/7?

ahlian case... aikzzz i wished for one few years ago.. still wishing!
anwyyas....mine not high end PC, so i guess this vizo is way better than CM and thermatake

i'm happy

Miraged, try to use all the fan at the lowest speed available...
Trust me, now, u dah biasa guna at maximum speed and maximum noise...

I was like that in the older days...

But once i did run my pc in the lowest noise, i fell in love with it...

U should try it too...

Trust me, you'll fall in love with a silent setup...

It's like u're in heaven...

eh.... but ur powerlogic 500T buzzing like crazy.. u said u put it on full... that's the NOISIEST fan in my setup! idiotic fan!! grrrr!

http://www.aerocool.com.tw/case/masstige/masstige.html

check out the fans in this. the first variation. the one with one side fan and front fan.

and then, check vizo 12cm (31dB and about 63CFM.)
honestly, aerocool's fans, when i put it near my face, the breeze isn't as strong as vizo. aerocool bluffing ppl! grrrr!

shawty! yup! silent setup rocks! however, my ceiling fan noiser than all those fans put together! ahhahaha! so if i wanna have silent setup, must on a/c 24/7 ! throw the ceiling fan away!

For Silverstone price, check here

Silverstone price list

hahah..yeah... thanks...
those casings look like my allowance for a month!

nope...that is NOT a lian-li

actually thats the YCC 61F1 case.... which is the OEM for the Akasa Eclipse-62 (go read the reviews... alot of reviews LOVE this case)

my dream case!!! gonna be flying to US on wednesday morning... hope can find one there. US abit hard to find... but in UK friggin everywhere!

and in case u guys are wondering how much itll cost to order from UK and ship it here.. i asked a few sites already.. and itll come up to a total of RM1.4k shipped to my doorstep

wow.....
what about if i buy it from the UK?

dude.....the one i posted above is about buying i from the UK la....

the akasa eclipse-62 is very very rare in US

hey madman, since you'll be flying to U.S. i bet you're going to get a lot of nice stuff from there huh?

Consider getting a Thermochill Freezer Cooler?

How about this, dream machine 2006

That is beautifuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuullllllllllllll
