Quiet fans

French Oméga
Go to solution Solved by loccilucas,

You don't need to fill every slot, it's not like you are cooling water in rads, you are just moving air. The difference in temps between having 7 fans at 500rpm and 3 fans at 500rpm is barely noticeable. Just buy 3 or 4 expensive extreemly good fans and run them at very low voltages for the lowest volume. Fans I reccomend in order of best -----> least beat

Noctua anything/noiseblocker E-loops

Hey!

 

I am like linus a silence freak and because of a strict budget, I couldn't afford after market fans.

I have refernce NZXT H440 fans a NH U14S and a EVGA 770 with ACX. the gpu and cpu are kinda quiet but the others are a bit noisy

since they are not PWM.

 

Correct me if I'm wrong but I'll like to load up every fan slot and reduce the RPM of the fans sor silence or use NF S12 ULN but they're a bit expensive since I'll need 7 of them

and that will cost around 140€. Or maybe some Be Quiet fans I have noooo idea.

 

Thank you,

 

The (only?) french dude on this forum.

if you have deep pockets just buy them, if not you will have to sacrifice loudness

No mention of phanteks? I hear they're great in terms of performance and noise, if a bit expensive...

Thanks man. If I can find them somewhere, I'll go with gentle typhoon. Else I'll go with the Aerocool's one or the Silent Wings and I'll try to grab a good 3'5 inch fan controller

Thanks to everyone
