Cooling a H440

Go to solution Solved by tomas710,

Hi everyone

I would like a quiet system and I have a NZXT X41 in push pull in the rear and don't know what fans to use or where and if you could recommend a cooling setup and what fans to use and what fans where?

You could do push pull with better aftermarket fans, the noctua nf-p14 redux are very high quality and not as expensive as other noctua fans. In the top i would put 3 nf-p12s, they are a balance between static pressure and airflow, and not that expensive. The fans that come for front intake are pretty good quality, i would keep those.

Silent wings 2 would be a more premium but silent oriented option for the top. CM silencio FP fans would be great at the top too, they are VERY quiet and pretty cheap, phanteks makes good fans too, you could use them both for the rad and the top, they are very versatile and come in 120 and 140mm

Those front fans are loud.

Well, you can replace them too, depends on your budget, AP123s, nf-p12, silent wings 2, phanteks PH-F120MP, bitfenix specter pro, cooler master silencio FP, all good options
