Good Cheap Fan

Go to solution Solved by SuperPug,

Ok, hi friends :)

 

I am in need of a good fan, airflow wise, for under 10$. Ive been looking at the Noctua NF S12B but those are 13$ :( Any ideas? Thanks

 

The NZXT ones are pretty decent and fairly cheap aswell: http://www.amazon.com/NZXT-Technologies-Performance-Cooling-RF-FN122-RB/dp/B00KJGYNW6/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1428782198&sr=8-1&keywords=nzxt+120mm+fan

Rosewill Hyperborea are sometimes <$10. They are really good as far as air movement goes, but have a rotten DOA history

Ill check it out

 

stupid ass recommendation ;)

Its not about saving 10$ for a fan. its about saving a bit here and there, to get the overall cost down. lets just say its not just one fan
