Hi!

Can anyone recommend me a good fan filter? Where can I get them?

Thanks!

Lolz..dun wan DIY..

I've seen fan filters by Termaltake, Nexus and other brands..
I also found that ppl recommend buying fan filters from uglyvamp at http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=837743&hl=

No one here uses fan filters??

I do not have this product, but using the 90CFM fan should reduce the temp by a few degrees.

I recently installed 3 90CFM Cooler Master fans, 1 intake and 2 exhaust, my core temps reduced by 5C - 8C!!

Yea..Its not exactly 90CFM, thats what I heard too but I installed 3 of them, running at full speed, the sound level is surprisingly low as I was expecting a louder noise since I installed 3 of them. And they really push alot of air!

I installed one of them at the top part of my Cooler Master 590 casing and when I put my hand 5cm from the fan, I can feel the air! I can still feel it when my hand is about 15cm away from the fan!

However I can't feel the air being pushed from my back exhaust fan. Maybe coz there are more holes for the air to go through at the top compared to the back..

But after consulting members from Hardwarezone.com.sg, they say that its worth it coz it pushed alot of air and its cheap! Of course most ppl will recommend brands like Yate Loon and Scythe but Scythe is very expensive..one of the forumers here is selling for RM80 per fan and I'm not sure about Yate Loon.

So, for a RM30 fan like this Cooler Master 90CFM fan, its really reasonable. I've heard that the LEDs tend to die very fast but I do not care about LEDs anyway.

There's a thread about this fan, you can read it at: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/696093

So how often do you clean the inside of your comp?

Cooler below RM100?? Never heard of it before lolz..

Spend a lil more and get a better one

Just now..I removed one of my Cooler Master 90CFM fans to replace the screws with rubber screws, and I realized that the fan is kinda oily/greasy..

Any idea why is it greasy??

Btw, the rubber screws didn't work..I can feel my casing vibrating due to the fan's speed lolz!

I'm just afraid of the damn pushpins..I have terrible experiences with the Intel stock cooler..now I'm running my Q6600 with stock cooler, 50C at idle

Nope, my PC is at the living room.

The blades and the frame of the fan are greasy. I suspect that its the grease which is used to lubricate the motor..

You only need to use the screw when removing the HSF. I've got no problems with removing..only problems with fixing it..

Maybe I've already fixed it correctly..but somehow my temps are still at 50C at idle!!

I have read lots of threads regarding this matter and most ppl say that 50C is high at idle. Most of them get below 40C

First core is always higher than the rest. Temp at 47C at load is good!! I wish I could have that..my Q6600 goes above 85C at 100% load -.-

What HSF are you using??

How high is it compared to the rest? is it alot of difference or just 1-3C difference?

Maybe he didn't install it properly, push pins are very troublesome

Do you guys know any good fan controller? I wanna control the speed on my CM 90CFM fans, slow during night and fast during the day or when playing games..

Btw, I just got my CCF, but I dunno how to install the fan controller ><
Cna someone guide me?

Thanks!

I guess I prefer the Sunbeam Rheobus Fan Controller, so far good reviews

My question:
Your answer:
Wa..means you suggest me to turn my speakers louder during the night??
Dah la I dun like the noise by the fans..summore wan me turn on speakers louder LOL

My parent's room is near my PC, so they can hear the noise produced by the fans. Although they dun mind but still its disturbing lolz..

yea..I googled it just now and found the solution
The CCF fans aren't that loud actually

Now finding a good fan controller to control my CM fans

Not really if you have 3 or 4 in our casing
I'm having 1 for intake and 2 for exhaust now..and 1 more unopened..not sure where to fix it lolz..

Icic..so you fixed it onto your HSF..your temps reduced after installing that 90CFM fan?

I love these fans, my temps dropped by 5C after installing 3 of these fans when I was using Intel stock cooler

Lol..I'm having the same problem with iBenQ too..using CM690 + CM 90CFM fans..

I don't understand what you meant by 'raise the fan from the filter' ><

EDIT:
Err..do you mean you fix the fan far from the filter?
