Noctua NF A14 IndustrialPPC IP67 or BeQuiet Silent 2

Metro

Hello

 

Noctua NF A14 IndustrialPPC IP67 or BeQuiet Silent 2, they are the 140mm version and I will run both at 1000RPM, I need it for case fans, I would like them to be quiet but also have good performance, I am not sure what they are like in cases.

 

Also money is not a problem with it.

 

Thanks

intel stock coolers are best ;) jokes aside, i've never heard anything bad about noctua - everyone seems to love them for performance / nosie so I guess you can't go wrong with them.

There's little point getting iPPC fans if you don't need the extra durability. 

It would help to list your specs and describe where you're using them.

Go with SW2's. NF-A14's on the rads would perform better but you could run slow SW2's in push pull instead for consistency.

I have 2 of the NF A14s on the front of my case and they are whisper quiet till about 1500RPM, maybe a bit less. I'm really happy with them.

Note: I got the IPPC ones cause they're black and it matched my build.

Do they start up quiet or are they really loud, also what RPM are you using for them

They start up at full speed but quiet down after you get past your initial boot.

Anywhere between barely turning to about 1400 RPM

They go to full blast at 70C on the MoBo VRM.

I think I will get 7 of them and run them at 1000RPM, thanks for your help
