Which is the best out of these three for being very quiet at low speed for normal usage and the best for High speed air movement when gaming?
I've heard the Apache are louder than the Tri-Cool at low, but better at moving air at both high and low? And where do the Ambers fit in with all of this?
See my mini reiew here http://forums.hexus.net/chassis-syst...ache-fans.html
The apache is the best PWM fan I've ever used, however if youjust want a case fan that's going to be run at 12v then look for a lower rpm fan.
Be aware though that the lower the rpm not only makes a fan quieter it also reduces air flow.
a 1400rpm fan is always (well as long as it's half decent) going to move more air and be louder than a 1000rpm fan
A very good and reasonable cost quiet fan atm is the fractal 1000rpm 120mm
