Phanteks Enthoo Luxe Front Fan

Go to solution Solved by Enderman,

2x140mm move much more air than a 200mm will.
The noctua industrial NF-A14 are very good.

Hey,

 

Should I change the Front 200mm stock fan with dual 140mm Noctua Industrial fans or should I just keep the stock Fan ?

Or should I change the stock fan with a BitFenix Spectre Pro 200mm Red LED fan for extra aesthetics ?

 

Thanks for all the help.

Getting a "better" front fan for your Luxe will help the airflow to the GPU area. However, if you already have good temps and don't mind how noisy the stock fan is, I don't see why getting a different fan.

If the fan is the same as in the Enthoo Pro it is not loud even at 75% speed.

Phanteks also makes pretty good fans

iirc the fan in the luxe is the 200mm version of their sp series, and those a specced well for both static pressure and airflow; so it is probably good enough to keep your components cool.... You'll probably only want to replace it if you want to install a radiator

I totally agree with you. I think th 200mm front fan with rubber grommets is pretty silent for how much air it moves. However, some people tend to think Phanteks' fans suck dick, probably because they lack knowledge or are just fanboys of other brands.

Agreed.
