Hey! Within the next couple of months i will have setup my water loop in an NZXT Switch 810! I'm really excited but i cant seem to find some good fans. Do you guys know of any fans that are good when it comes to radiator cooling, have some kind of led lighting, and are QUITE? All help would be really appreciated! Thanks!

BetFenix Fans are ok, not the best for RAD:

But honestly, if you are going water cooling - you want performance versus "bling". :) Maybe some Corsair SP fans with the Red rings, and then use red LED fans elsewhere on your rig...

There is also the CM Sickle Flow that come with red LED...

The best fans will be noctua nf-f12's, Silverstone air penetrators (you have to make sure you get the right ones) or scythe gentle typhoons.

I hope this helps you out!

Have fun with the build!

I would recommend getting performance fans for your rad and then maybe an LED lighting kit to supplement it for the lighting you want. You will get better lighting and better cooling overall.

Alright here we go, there are tons of good radiator fans. LED not so much, but there are some. Regardless most let you pop in leds (of your choice) and LEDs are pretty cheep and just run off molex.

You got the;

NF-F12s

GT AP 13s, 14s, 15s

Karma Flow 2

SP120

Cougar Vortex

Noiseblocker Blacksilent Pro

Spectre Pro

Yate Loons
