Go to solution Solved by Garuger,

Is the Gentle typhoon 1850 RPM good? How about slipstream? And compared them to ap121 or cm scythe

Go here https://www.youtube.com/user/CoolingTechnique/videos and he has a huge amount of fans both for sound and review in the deescription .Second best fan is Grand Flex 2400 rpm pwm then first is Gentle Typhoon 5000+ rpm anything else is lower than those  two. Just search his channel and read his reviews which are very picky and points lots of details , imagine grand flex can defeat the Corsair Static pressure and air flow series because it provides arouns 118 CFM with 3.6 Static Pressure which is much higher than corsair (especially airflow which is almost doubled) but static pressure is just 0.3 more to Scythe . However the price difrence in my country is around 5 euros wich is kinda big difrence

What can you say about these fans:

Which one is better

Corsair AF120 Performance Dual Pack -$26.81

Thermaltake Luna 120mm - $10.50

Coolermaster Sickleflow - $8.94

Noctua fans are expensive for me cause the Nf-f12 is almost the price of corsair dual pack

Im from Philippines and converted the price to USD so you guys can comment about the performance and also the price.

I dont really need it now cause still using Pentium G3240 but ill be adding a 760/960 hopefully a 970 or soon. Ill be upgrading to i5 4690k. My current case is Aerocool Strike-X One.

Thanks everyone

Cooler Master Blade Master 120's are excellent all-purpose fans for ~$10 each.

I dont know if we have ap122s here but I found l

AP121 for $13.38 and AP121-BL for $16.73

Are they the same in terms of performance and is it worth the price?

In that case get the AP121's they are much better than the other 3 you listed.

ap121 have better static pressure and ate generally better than ap122

Ap123 is best
