Hey i'm looking for some good fans for my NZXT switch 810 case. The stock fans are a bit loud and wanted something quieter but still has that performance needed to push air in my case.

 

Brands and exact models would be great if you can post please.

 

Thanks!

I use three Silverstone AP123s, but they are quite loud at 12v (1500rpm). They are okay at 9v, and silent at 7v, and still move decent amount of air.

My vote goes for the Scythe GTs as well, but I'm curious as to how well the Fractal Silent Series R2 fans do!

Corsair and Noctua make some pretty quite fans.
