212 evo fan

[HouzerUK]

Hi guys,

 

The fan on my cm 212 evo is not sounding very healthy anymore so i wish to replace it before it decides to fail and would like to know what you think would be a good replacement for it. I have heard good things about noctua however i dont really like the asthetics of them. Preferably im after somthing like the original and was considering a corsair sp120 what to you guys think is there anything better?(will be purchasing from amazon as i have a few other things to get anyway)

Sp120s will do fine

Get Schythe Gentle typhoons. They are as good as noctuas but black.

Do you care about noise? Budget?

[HouzerUK]

budget is not really an issue unless its crazy amounts, as for noise should be about the same as the original or better at 36 dBA.

SP 120s are good fans. Scythe Gentle Typhoons like @Swegly said are basically the best fans on the market however they are not that easy to find anymore.

Silverstone AP, Bequiet Silent Wings2, Gentle Typhoons, NB-eLoops

Eloops if you can (push only), also cougar vortexes are good if you don't mind the ugly colors

Sp120s will do fine

Thank you for all the replies will be going with the sp120 like Tmh85 and Osmium said as Gentle Typhoons do seem to be harder to find.
