Hey guys, I am putting together my first build soon and I wanted to know what some good case fans are that I can get for around $15. I am going to have a NZXT S340 case and I want the fans for the front so I can get good airflow for my 290x. Any suggestions?

Hands down GELID Silent 12.

Thanks! The two will run me for $40 bucks but I think they will be well worth it :)

yeah ive been searching for the best 140mm fans for several months now, and its harder to find a good 140mm fan than 120mm cause there are a lot less

 

this is the only 140mm PWM fan that has a static pressure over 1mm H2O while also having good airlfow at sub-20dba noise levels

noctua does have other 140mm redux fans such as 1500rpm or non-PWM, which might be cheaper, but they are all worth it

Quick question, do you know if the power leads on the fans would be long enough to reach my mobo for PWM control?
