Noctua Fan

[CHEESYnachoMAN4]

I recently ordered Noctua redux fans but I was thinking about returning them and getting the industrialppc ones?

Should i return the other ones and get the other ones?

For the color maybe, but they all work good.

Plus I ordered anti vibration mounts for the redux and just found out they wont work with it. So do you think i should just return the redux fans and get the other ones?

the industrialPPC ones arent really meant for *normal* scenarios, at max speed they have something like double the static pressure of *your average PC fan*

So should i just keep the redux fans?

I do prefer the black a little more than the gray redux ones but it doesn't bother me.

or should i just get the normal ugly one?

well, i guess you can if you want to spend an extra 10 bucks per fan, it's not like they're gonna be "so epic its not gonna work", it's just more than you probably need.

So i'm probably better of just keeping the redux fan right?

Just return the anti-vibration fan mounts, right?

Also will the NA-SAV2 chromax.red work with the redux fans? Are they worth it too?

Thanks

the anti-vibration mounts and the rubber corner things are not really needed on Noctua fans as they do not vibrate enough to make any noise.

Are the rubber corner things worth it tho i already ordered them should i keep them or no?

Also should i keep the redux fans or return them and get better ones?

redux are fine, just as good as the brown ones. corner things are not required

is it pwm? check its rpm. I have all my fans connected to the CPU header and i cant hear them over the rain outside but normally the rear one is louder, but thats due to my case having a silencing front panel. possible your front fan is louder because its exposed

you should be able to tune it to be 300 to 350rpm at idle. that is the quietest you can get it
