    can anyone recommend any good 80mm case fans at a decent price, <$20 CDN (£8.25)?

    These are excellent for exhaust fans, very quiet too...

    These are equally good for an intake fan, get a grill so it dosnt turn your case into a vacuum cleaner however...

    To err is human. To really foul things up ... you need a computer.

    I'd recommend panaflos from dorothy over the Antec fans - quieter, and cheaper.

    how quiet are these Panaflow fans? I'm looking to silence my case, are these the best things to get? i'm not looking to spend much.

    I got some that run at 18dBa and they are completely inaudible - and I'm VERY fussy about noise.

    the 21dBa ones should be good too, I'd guess.

    Another Vote for Panaflo or YS-Tech (not the silent one's as they dont push any air)
