    I don't have that particular one, but I do have a NorthQ 120mm NCB Black fan. I believe it's rated around 17dba.

    It's the quietest fan I own (at 12v), compared to Nexus, Coolermaster, SilenX, Antec, Aerocool, GlobalWin (all 120mm fans). I would seriously consider purchasing another if I didn't have a few spare 120mm fans.

    I'm more than happy with the Coolermaster 120mm LED fans I have in mine, I honestly do not hear them at all (though admitedly I do have them on rubber screws)

    I've got one currently sitting in an Eclipse case. I agree they're quite but IMO not in the same league as the NorthQ I have as the Coolermaster has slight bearing noise.

    Also very impressed with the 80mm Coolermaster Blue LED fan, was happy with the first so bought another one.
