Coolermaster nepton 280L replacing the cm jetflo fans

I've done some research and have found out that the fans that come with the nepton are very loud, what's a good, not too expensive replacement? I was thinking about the noctua nf-p14s 140mm pwm redux edition 1500rpm, is it good enough? Is it at least better than the cm jetflo fans that come with the nepton, in terms of airflow and temperature improvements? Or is it worse than the jetflo? I'm thinking about overclocking a fx8350 to at least around 5.0ghz with this cooler.

after looking at it why not set the Jetflos to 1500 Rpm and you will still have better airflow and static pressure ratings than the noctuas, why not get the noctuas and have a push/pull with the pull exhausting out your case

IMO the redux versions of the Noctua fans aren't worth it, no anti-vibration mounts, no LNA or Y-splitter cable included etc. The Nepton 280L + 2 Noctua NF-A14 is the perfect combination.

I already have 2 140mm fans on top of my case ATM, a silverstone and a corsair. I haven't exactly bought the nepton yet, so I guess I might just keep saving up for the a14s. I should always use the motherboard fan headers for my radiator fans right? I believe the nepton comes with a y splitter. Does the noctua a14 come with y splitters? What about this fan? http://www.mwave.com.au/product/noctua-140mm-nfa14-industrial-ppc-ip52-3000rpm-pwm-fan-ab55447#detailTabs=tabSpecifications does it come with splitters as well? i definitely need some, because even as of now i've occupied every single fan header on my motherboard already.

Your pump needs to be in CPU_Fan, fans in CPU_OPT or in the Nepton it self if that's an option. Each NF-A14 comes with a L.N.A cable and Y-splitter. The fan you linked is the IPPC version, aside from being black and having higher RPM it costs more and has some industrial grade stuff that most users won't need. It doesn't come with the adapters and cables the standard version comes with..

Fan controllers mitigate that problem., their not too expensive either.

Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,.. Gigabyte GTX970 G1-Gaming @ 1550Mhz

great....... looks like im gonna have to invest in a fan controller, i can't find splitters anywhere.. besides ebay. I mainly buy from mwave.com.au, can you guys suggest any fans from that site? and if i really need any fan controllers as well? I don't really want to spend any more than 90 bucks all up on fans.. and not anymore than 50 for a fan controller.

The Nepton comes with a PWM fan splitter iirc.
