anti vibration fan mounts???

Go to solution Solved by MYSTICmayonaise,

I am actually using both kinds in my system, the little rubber "screw replacements" are great for all the case fans and what not, and the rubber gasket looking ones are great for mounting fans to radiators.

 

if you have a rad, get a gasket for fan mounting, for case fans use the little grommet things.

 

P.S. make sure you get a few more grommets than you need, I ripped a couple on accident while installing fans, i recommend using a pair of pliers to pull them through the fans and case, makes it way easier.

Could just DIY something and save some cash.. cut up some sponge or an old tshirt?

Bit of Blu Tac does an alright job. Otherwise chop up some old rubber-soled shoes?
