I had to resuscitate the topic, so it turns out that now I have:


1. Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM 120.
2. Noctua NF-A14 PWM 140.

What do you think, 120 for the back and also buy 2 140 for the front.
Are these good coolers for the case?
 

Yes

You'll have a somewhat positive pressure, that ain't bad, but if exhaust is a bit too weak you can up the 120 speed (say if the 140 run at 700rpm, run the 120 around 1200rpm - fans tend to make significantly more noise at certain speed thresholds, so test it)

 

Hi!

 

Please advise what "propellers" 🙂 to put in the case Deepcool CC560.
I want not too noisy, the only source of heat will be 7900xtx, the cooling on the processor 7800x3d Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE.

1. Is it worth changing coolers on Thermalright cooler?
2. The first choice is Noctua NF-A12x25 (2 in front and 1 in the back and top 2), are they worth their money?

 

Thanks!

It's all good, but imo Noctuas are too expensive as case fans, that don't run fast anyway so are never really noisy 

Arctic P12 are 4 times cheaper and will do the same job, a 5 pack is $30

And the top ones arent really necessary with an aircooler, even saw tests where they made temps worse as the cooling fans can better draw cool air from the top without

oh, that's interesting about the top fans. 
I'll try to do that on my new PC and see if I can compare.

Thanks!

 

Is it better to take 120 or 140 fans?

140 if you can they move more air at same noise level

Yes

You'll have a somewhat positive pressure, that ain't bad, but if exhaust is a bit too weak you can up the 120 speed (say if the 140 run at 700rpm, run the 120 around 1200rpm - fans tend to make significantly more noise at certain speed thresholds, so test it)
