CPU Fans

Bruno_A

Hey guys, I have a really crappy PSU that makes a lot of noise. Now, I'm getting two new 120mm case fans for my DeepCool Gammaxx 400 and I'll be using its current fan to replace the PSU fan. I'm getting the fans from https://www.aria.co.uk/, which ones should I get? I was thinking about the Arctic 120mm PWM, but then I saw the BeQuiet Pure Wings 2, which ones should I go with? The Arctic fans have better airflow than the BeQuiet and also cheaper. Also, can I power two CPU fans out of the same CPU_fan header on my motherboard?

 

Many thanks, Bruno.

My personal opinion, Corsair ML120 Pro, quiet, excellent lighting style... it's a maglev fan for crying out loud.

Yes, you can power 2 fans from 1 header with a fan header splitter.

£18 would be my max budget for the 2 fans xD As for the fan header, I know I can use a splitter, but, would that be safe? As far as I know, fan headers can only draw so much.
