i just purchased a dark knight II cooler and is really impressed with its performance, but i'm looking for a quiet  replacement pwm fan. the stock fan works well but it becomes loud when rpm's reach 1900- 2200rpm.

 any recommendations on what fan to get? thanks

Ah...the DK2.  Great cooler with great looks as well....make sure you pick up some more mounting posts.  I used Akasa Apache's on mine and was happy :D  Included a link for the mounts as they are hard to find....

Can you score these from Newegg.....they are similar to the Akasa Apache and about 4.00 dollars cheaper US....have not used them, but have heard other LTT members talk.

If not, good luck and happy cooling with those JetFlos......

I put on a 120 Silent 12 from Gelid. Cools well enough and is real quiet, even for my i5 2500k at 4.6ghz
