120mm Fans

I'm looking at 120mm fans to go with a Thermalright XP-120. I want high performance but not at the cost of my ear drums :p.

Any surgestions?

I like the AC Ryan UV Blackfire ones as sold at kustom pcs :) pretty quiet and look dead nice :) get em on fan controller give em 9v and their silent but still shoft some air

For 120MM fans i wouldn't accept nothing less than a Panaflo. Their noise to CFM ratio is impeckable.

Panaflo are highly rated. I reckon I shall get a pair for my radiator.

Papst fans are the daddy.

I have a pair on my radiator and one on my intake and the are brilliant, quiet but shift plenty of air.

i had 6 papst 120 mm fans in my case , 4 on the 120.2 radiator an 2 on the bix rad and on a fan controller turned down it was hardly audible atall up full i would hardly call it very noisy !

Silent X are nice, but pricey! :p

SilenX 120mm @ 14dBA moves 58 CFM! :)

Yeah, but SilenX will require modding to attach to the XP-120 since they revised it :(

Im using a delta 120mm 199cfm fan coupled with a thermaltake fan controller. On the lowest setting its fairly quiet but on full? Well you have to hear it to believe it really.
Still 28C idle temps are nice :)

mate just bought a vantec stelth fan, was very very impressed with it, miles quieter than the supplied fan with the silverstond case he bought....

Yeah, but he's recommending them for another reason......

yeah, another pimp for the focussed flow 120mm ones :)
