What fans should i use for my pc

jet224presents

Im confused on which fans i want for my system currently i have 2 Af120's in the back and top and then i have the stock sp fans on my h100i in pull config

Im looking to have a quiet rig but still have great cooling 

my first setup possibility would be 2 noctua nf-f12 ippc 2000 in pull on the rad and in the back have a Be Quiet pure wings 2 120m and on top have a 140mm fan sadly the 120mm does not have a PWM fan header or should i just use silent wings 3 in back/top

2nd possibility would be 2 silentwings 3 highspeed on the RAD then have pure wings 2 on back and top in same config. 

please help me decide what would be the best setup  Thanks!!

You get what you pay for , if you want something that is most effective then maybe spending a few more $ would be a good investment rather than buying a cheap one and regretting it later on because the fan turns out to be shit .

All silent wings if you can afford and want to invest in your PC
2 Silent + 2 Pure if you don't mind mixing the fans and still want to maintain your budget 
All pure wings if you want everything to be the same + affordable 

 

Personally I would go for all silent wings

High-speed SW3's are great if you don't want to sacrifice as much performance at the higher end for the rads. 

If you ever need help with a build, read the following before posting: http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/3061-build-plan-thread-recommendations-please-read-before-posting/
