u must have been using either the 80mm or 92mm fan... the 120mm is actually quite alright
no hardware RPM control...but there is RPM monitoring. u can control the RPM thru software. depending on whether or not ur software can support
the Vizo 120mm UV LED fans currently has the best ratio in my book.

thx..edited as misread the answer...anyway would be ideal if can get a fan running at 60-65cfm running at below 28dBa, can just leave it running full blast.

Hmm... I don't think there is any Fan that have this spec, high CFM & low dBa.
  The spec near this requirement will be Panaflo. Try checkout the bulk thread:
    http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=345848
  However found Thermaltake Silent Cat 92mm has 52.24 CFM @ 21 dBa, but I think it cheats. It is actually not as quiet as 21 dBa (from other forum users).

you're right, theres none or maybe i havent found it yet lol, btw i tried the panaflo medium bx fan whihc is 38mm thick...it was a little too loud for me n def more vibration, but some users here found it ok.

it is known that thermaltake has a tendency of bullshitting with their cfm/dba rates.

dont quote me onn this, but iinm i read somewhere that they measure dba frm like 10 feet away, if thats true, even the the delta's will sound acceptable

of course i did.... im using it in my HTPC. and used to run it in my main rig oso. its good enough to keep my S64 2500+ and A64 2800+ cool.

noise wise... as typical as a stock AMD cooler lor

EDIT: wait a minute...something just occured to me....is the s754 & s939 AMD cooler fans 60mm or 70mm? if im not mistaken theyre 70mm right? if theyre 70mm then most likely the 60mm cablesguy posted never used before laugh.gif
*
np laugh.gif ...would be good if someone tried that...anyway some info for those looking for silent fans, managed to test 2 different type of 120mm fans, the Scythe S-Flex F and the Yate Loon D12SM-12

Attached Image Attached Image

The scythe feels very solid and heavy for a 25mm thick fan whereas the yate loons are very light, but both pushed a decent amount of air, listening less than a feet away +-, unless my ear are playing tricks, abt the only sound i hear are the air being pushed

As i am falling more and more to dead silent setup, i'm starting to feel that all 5 vantec spectrum 120mm uvled fans are kinda "noisy" well, not really noisy, it's just that i'm slowly starting to feel that i can't stand the noise anymore. sweat.gif

All these started when i switch my casing from the 3D Aurora 570 to this Lian Li PC-G7. sweat.gif

I'm thinking of swapping all 120mm fan to these:

Aerocool 120MM Silver Lightning Fan
It's not the most silent, but it's better than this Vantec Spectrum UV Led Fans laugh.gif

Love the white led.
Yeah, i know coolermaster also have those fans with white led's, but, it's just too slow at 1200RPM. sweat.gif

While the Aerocool Silver Lightning is at 1500RPM which is quite okay too me.
Not too fast, not too slow. laugh.gif

Thinking of buying five units of 120MM Aerocool Silver Lightning and one unit of 80MM Aerocool Silver Lightning.

What do you guys think about this fan? blink.gif

im currently using the 140mm ones to cool my hdd....not too bad....very silent
