Sorry if i should have had this info in the original post, still new to posting in forums. Noise not really an issue except at low RPM. gonna probably stick with with the stock wraith prism cooler, looking at these in particular Because its a very highly reviewed brand, there available here in New Zealand for a reasonable price and they aren't RGB. and yes I am open to other options but i do like the overall look of these.

If you like the aesthetic of these fans in particular and aren't aiming for very low noise, you might as well get the High-Speed ones or whichever is cheaper.

They're pretty well priced too so I'm not seeing anything with substantially better value.

The case comes with 2 stock case fans so I recommend trying them out rear / top exhaust along with a pair of 140mm PW2's for front intake first. If you think they're too noisy, you can replace them with 120mm PW2's later on. If you're doing it primarily for the fan aesthetic, you could just get all PW2's now. 

Hello, new forum member here ?,

I'm, looking to replace my 8 1/2 year old system this coming black Friday/cyber Monday with a Ryzen 7 3700X (not planning to overclock),  ASUS ROG STRIX X570-F based system with either a EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Black, or if the sale is good enough a ROG Strix GeForce RTX 2080 Ti in a http://www.phanteks.com/Eclipse-P350X.html . Now my query regarding the cooling. I'm thinking of possibly having 2 be quiet! Pure Wings 2 140mm PWM https://www.bequiet.com/en/casefans/616 for intake, and 2 Pure Wings 2 120mm PWM https://www.bequiet.com/en/casefans/617  , or would it be better to go for the high speed versions, or do i need to look for something with more even more punch?

 

Thank-you for any advice and have a nice day ?

Are you prioritizing low noise more or airflow? What cpu cooler are you using?

Why are you looking at these fans in particular? Are you open to other fan alternatives?
