Inexpensive/Good quality are kind of an oxymoron for case fans. I guess the Arctic P12 are decent. You really want T30s or A12s though

Fans don't have to be expensive. They didn't used to be and then the fan industry got greedy. Fan tech is ancient - there is no reason to charge as much as some companies do.

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

well good fans back in the day cost about $20-25. so add inflation and its not that bad. just the rgb fans addeds alot more and thoe chromex fans...

the 140mm are more nesh so cost a bit more most of the time.

 

but i mean if people buy it then cant really falt them i guess. i mean there are $300 cpu water blocks and $600 gpu water blocks... 🤷‍♂️

 

hi end cases was around the $350 for aluminum. thow there were some good case that were cheap at one point like the corsair 900d i think was like $150? if i remember...

 

thow a water cooling kit with d5 240 rad res and hybrid cpu/gpu nb sb blocks were $150...
