I get tired of everyone jumping on the Noctua bandwagon, most evident on these forums, perhaps the experience is less than the other main forums, not sure?

 

I honestly don't understand why people continue to support a company that refuses to listen to their customers, boggles my mind.

Sure they make some excellent fans, but they are not the be all end all of fans, plenty of other fans are superior at their own respective tasks.

 

Seems like the majority will recommend Noctua just for the sake of following the pack.

 

I'll just list a just a few excellent choices.
