be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm vs Corsair AF Silent Edition

[IMPERIUS]

Hi!

 

I'm looking into buying new fans for summer.

 

I want them to be quiet and effective (silent operation preferred, my system isn't getting hot as is now)

 

I really like both the be quiet silent wings 2 and corsair af silent edition fans.

 

Which one would you choose? What are some pros and cons of both models?

 

Thanks!

HANDS DOWN Silent Wings 2. There is no competition here.

why

Quieter 

Better airflow

More static pressure

More smooth and reliable Fluid Dynamic Bearing

Looks nicer and not mainstream af

 

Better in pretty much every aspect of a fan

why

just overall better fan.

Corsair fans are for the looks mostly.

You can't turn off the leds in the corsair fans, can you?

Not even. Mostly for the Corsair brand name.

Nope. At least you can with certain fans like Bitfenix's. Again, only paying for the Corsair brand name, and getting a subpar product

There is no competition here. I recently installed four be quiet! Silent Wings 2 140mm fans into my main rig and I'd argue they makes the best case fans money can buy.
