waklaka what a expression biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif  anyway whats the meaning of califragilistically??  tongue.gif
rm55 consider cheap ke? hmm if compare cm led silent with this silverstone, i think it`s cheaper than cm one.

wait a minute. i`m still confuse about airflow. isit good or not for having 3 intake fan with just only 1 exhaust? rclxub.gif

how much is the CM LED silent?

by the way, what's the best fan controller? must have black aluminum faceplate.

It would cost RM30 in most LYP shop.... nice but prefer UV fan as it is even more silence ...i dont particularly concern so much of the airflow ..
*
according to the coolermaster website, both the LED and UV 12cm fans are rated 22DdB. but u say UV one is more silent. why? CM spec is wrong?

I compare both of it on the spot ... somehow ... UV spin lower than LED version ... which also lead to lower CFM and ultimately lower noise ....

spec is always spec ..it has never 100% correct .. just like handphone as well

if u try from different store .. u will notice the LCD screen color and keypad touch is slightly different ...
*
LCD screen can calibrate mahh. maybe the keypad has been pressed too many times by people like us laugh.gif

Dude, just get a fan speed controller, a good reputable one because some of them allow for over-voltage control meaning you can supply your fans with more than 12V without going through the hassle of cutting through your fan wires and then soldering them with the PSU wires.
*
can give an example of good reputable one?

Too bad hard to get silent fans in local market .....

5V mean runningin what RPM ????
*
don't know. it's a 120mm fan. if run at full 12v, it is 2200rpm (stated on the box of the fan) smile.gif damn noisy. 40db as stated on the box. i don't have SPL meter.
at 12v, it's 80cfm. lots of airflow.
at 5v, airflow too little, hardly feel the air blowing my hand. but damn quiet. thumbup.gif

And not to mention, the LL case came together with fan filters. Would these filters be blocking the air flow of the case?
*
make sure u change the rear fan mesh filter to those ring type ones. air can flow easier. the front filter is up to u. i changed mine to uglyvamps's filter. the default LL filter has holes that are just to big to be a filter. if u ditch the filter, u get better airflow. but dust.............

1. how to lubricate/put oil to cooler master rifle bearing fan? my 80mm fan is getting noisier. when i peel off the sticker, the construction is different from a typical sleeve/ball bearing. so i dunno whether can put oil on it.

2. how to remove AMD sempron stock fan from it's heatsink? is it by the 4 clips? the 4 clips are really hard to bend in order to remove the fan. do i have to really apply a great force to bend the 4 clips? cos i wanna lubricate the fan also. it's squeking. noisy!!

The thread only discuss on 120mm fans, neither 80mm nor 92mm fans.

that's the thread for all fans. but u may see a lot of 120mm fans cos it's big, pushes a lot of air, and silence.

And not sure what you mean by connect it directly to PSU. I thought the molex can only connect to PSU?
*
if your fan has molex, just connect straight to PSU.
if your fan has the small 3pin connector, u need to connect it to adaptor so that it becomes molex. this step is only needed if your PSU has no 3pin conncetor
