I have been using this: http://us.hardware.info/reviews/5770/103-12cm-case-fans-review%C2'> to make my decision on three case fans to cool a fractal design node 605 htpc case with a r9 390 inside and a 120 mm coolermaster seidon all in one on the exhaust. i believe i have narrowed the choice to the cougar vortex, the nff12's or the enermax twister pressure and i was wondering if there was a definite winner among those three or if there is another option i havent considered yet.

There's no link on "this"

generally stock case fans are just fine unless you have problems with noise

That roundup doesn't use the best testing method and should be taken with a grain of salt.

The NF-F12 is the best of the three.

Have you tried lowering fan speeds?
