Hey Guys :D,

 

i want to make my computer more quiet. SO i need new Fans and i'm not sure which.

I need 140mm or 120mm Fans and i don't want to spend more than 20 Bucks per fan.

I really want them to be quiet and run at low rpm, around 800-1000 or even less.

 

Silent Wings 2, Noctua, eLoop? I have no idea.

The Pun is that they either suck air in or push air in, depending on your point of reference.

 

I have the Noctua NF-S12A FLX with Ultra Low noise adapters. The fans are inaudible (technically not but they are very quiet). The 140s will be even quieter.

 

Undervolting (like with the ULN Adapters or the LN Adapters (LN = Low Noise)) reduces fan speed and noise but also airflow.

It would help to list your specs.

The s12a is noctua's quietest fan.
