Tiltentei06 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 Hi people. I am thinking about replacing the lian li fans in my chassis, because i want it to be more silent. I know the noctua 120mm is very good and silent http://www.noctua.at/main.php?show=product...d=25&lng=en So i think it will be either that one, or this one http://www.silenx.com/ixtremaprofans.asp?sku=ixp-76-18 I got a fan control. What do you guys suggest i purchase? the iXtrema has same dba as the noctua, but the iXtrema has higher rpm (1400) and pushes alot more air, 153m Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilya_hhjj Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I wouldnt trust SilenX specs, AFAIK they are notorious for making up their own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdy284 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 my vote goes to the noctua's I have a 120mm and 140mm on my CPU cooler. right now i have my mobo running outside my case, so the only fans going are on the CPU cooler and i've walked in my room and thought my rig was off before, until i get closer and can finally hear it's running Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiltentei06 Posted March 5, 2010 Posted March 5, 2010 I wouldnt trust SilenX specs, AFAIK they are notorious for making up their own. I got the specs from the store who sells the product, so i hope they have tested them. ive already ordered 4 x fans now (SilenX), and i think im going to test them first om max speed before i do any cable extension and see if i am happy with sound. Il just return them if they are to loud.. If they are awesome i will order 5 more for my antec 1200. Sucks that expencive chassises comes with crap fans. Payed over 400$ on the lian li chassis Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
