    120mm LED fans that are quiet?

    Any pointers for quiet 120mm fans with LEDs? I picked up some cheap coolermasters when I ordered my antec 300 but they are annoying me already, I have them running through a fan controller but at low revs they have a ratterly hummm.

    Preferance is some that can be had in blue, will match my NZXT fan controller.

    Cheers

    Enermax Everest twister

    Or the new apollish for lots of led's
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/120mm...hermal-Control

    Both are thermal controlled so you probably don't want them on a fan controller

    Always the old sharkoon golfball led version

    For cheap try the Yate Loon (but it might not be much better than your current cm fan)

    Cheers for those, will have a look at them. THink the biggest problem is that the case fans sit a ear level, and quiet close to my head. I deally I would change my desk but that aint gonna happen any time soon.

    Umm how about cutting your ears off then?
    Or if you're that close some delta's? noisey at first but after a couple of week you'll not notice it or any other sounds.
