    Fans!

    Anyone used either of or both of the following: Silverstone FN91 92mm http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=292215 or Akasa 9cm Amber Case Fan http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=268277

    Just wanted to know which was the quieter of the 2!

    Cheers!
    E8500 - DFI P45 - 4Gb Corsair DHX - 4850 crossfire - X-Fi - water cooled and nice and quiet

    I put in both 80mm and 90mm and i can say the 80 is better than the 90. In terms noise.. they're not loud. Might be getting another 2 to replace remaining.

    I used the Asaka fans (9 and 12) to quieten down the hurricane sound generated from the case fan of my X-QPack. They do make a huge difference to sound levels, although you may then start chasing the noise around the various components in your system (was the HD caddy fans next for me!)
