What brand of fans do you have in your case?

Okay, so I'm trying to decide what brand of fans to go with for my build and I'm having some trouble on deciding. So, what I've done is added a poll to see which fan brands you guys generally go with. Commenting is not required as I can just get my answer from the poll. But if you would like to comment, by all means go right ahead. It may help in some aspect to that as well.

Thanks in advance for voting and the brands listed are the only ones that are available to me. :D

(Just found out that you can only have a max of 20 choices in a single poll :()

EDIT: Guys, I just realised that the fan brands that are listed in the poll are the ONLY brands that are available to me. I'm quite sure there are a gazillion other brands but we seemed to be a tad limited here in Australia. :(

Unfortunately you can only do a max of 20 choices in a single poll. :(

this needs to be multi-option 

 

I have only Phanteks and Fractal, but I'm sure many others have multiple types too.

Dang it! I thought I selected the multi thingamabob. Guess I didn't. Oh well. It's fixed now anyway.

Maybe you need to Be Quiet for me to put it up there. :P

EDIT: Read my first/original post, you'll see that they aren't available to me.

In the case that you're trying to decide on what fans to get, get what is appropriate and not necessarily what is popular.

Scythe gentle typhoons.  They're by far the most quiet best performers I've ever tried, (previously used nf-f12's and sp120s)   In terms of volume they run circles around nf-f12's.  

 

 

There's no option @Geekazoid :(

Stuff:  i7 7700k @ (dat nibba succ) | ASRock Z170M OC Formula | G.Skill TridentZ 3600 c16 | EKWB 1080 @ 2100 mhz  |  Acer X34 Predator | R4 | EVGA 1000 P2 | 1080mm Radiator Custom Loop | HD800 + Audio-GD NFB-11 | 850 Evo 1TB | 840 Pro 256GB | 3TB WD Blue | 2TB Barracuda
