Posted March 7, 2014 Hello all! I'm working on some water cooling plans (wrong sub forum eh? ) I need fans for my Radiator [Fans make this the right sub forum right?], and aesthetics aren't an issue (HAF Stacker means they're hidden). What are the best Static Pressure fans (If it's not a solid answer, what are my options?) I was looking at Gelid Wings for the case fans, and I wasn't sure about the rad fans. (Using Monsta 80mm thick Radiators) Please and thank you for all help!

Posted March 7, 2014 Author Scythe Gentle Typhoons or Noctua NF-F12s So, I really like the Typhoons, but all of the listing on Amazon (US) say "Case fan". Is that Amazon being non-techy, or are there different ones? Holy crap! NF-F12's are 25 bucks PER! When you need 18... That adds up lol... http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=a9_sc_1?rh=i%3Aaps%2Ck%3Agentle+typhoon&keywords=gentle+typhoon&ie=UTF8&qid=1394160983 Thats the Amazon link for a search of Gentile Typhoon. All say Case fan (and one thats 4k RPM [Noisssyyyy]) Case: Lian Li PC011-D - CPU: 3900x - GPU: 2080ti Reference - Mobo: Gigabyte - Ram: Corsair 4x16gb 3200MHz - SSD: 2TB Samsung Evo NVME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 7, 2014 Wait for the Noctua Black essence fans btw you want eighteen fans is that for a push pull configuration?also if you have only half the amount + in pull it would reduce the dust build up and hassle of cleaning & lower rpm for somewhat greater overall pressure Please become a member of the Linus Tech Tips forum, keep writing smug remarks & let us love you.

Posted March 7, 2014 Author Wait for the Noctua Black essence fans One, looks don't matter ;P Two, if they price the same as the NF-F12's, they're 25 bucks per (400+dollars for my needs) Case: Lian Li PC011-D - CPU: 3900x - GPU: 2080ti Reference - Mobo: Gigabyte - Ram: Corsair 4x16gb 3200MHz - SSD: 2TB Samsung Evo NVME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 7, 2014 Author that is why i updated it and said buy half the quantity The reason for Push/pull is the radiators are 2-3 times thicker than a normal rad. It's an 80mm thick radiator. Are the Gentle Typhoons listed on Amazon Case fans, or are they the right ones? -snip- Around 20 bucks a fan at max.

Posted March 7, 2014 Are the Gentle Typhoons listed on Amazon Case fans, or are they the right ones? when theyre 120mm you can mount them to either a cse or a rad. All fans can be categorized "case fans", so yeah, they are the right ones Personal Build Project "Rained-On" helped building up the CPU Overclocking Database and GPU Overclocking Database, check them out ;) #KilledMyWife #MakeBombs #LinusIsNotFunny || Please, dont use non-default grey font colors.

Posted March 7, 2014 even though your radiator is that thick doesnt require so many fanstake a look at Tiny Tom Logan"s Video playist under Orca on Youtube + i think that it is ridiculous to have eighteen fans in an entire system even for watercooling Please become a member of the Linus Tech Tips forum, keep writing smug remarks & let us love you.

Posted March 7, 2014 Author even though your radiator is that thick doesnt require so many fans take a look at Tiny Tom Logan"s Video playist under Orca on Youtube + i think that it is ridiculous to have eighteen fans in an entire system even for watercooling I've seen Orca. I want to be able to crank them down. I agree with your statement, I'm not trying to argue... It's part for the overkill, and part for noise. I'm going to go with the Typhoons Thanks all.
