    Need help with case fan!

    I'm like either going to get the NZXT Lexa or the Thermaltake Armor. I need you guys to recommended some low-to-medium noise fans with a high CFM output. So far Antec, Thermaltake, and Silverstone have caught my eye. Also, any fans that meet the previous stated criteria and have a nice blue LED glow to it would be nice as well. Tell me what you guys think.

    ac ryan blackfire fans. if used with a fan controller thay can be very quiet and still push some air, on full whack they alledgedly push 75cfm. which is nice. they are clear blue and have got bright uv leds and light up well. about 8 quid each from kustompcs.

    You just dont get fans that are quiet whilst pushing air

    I've got some 120mm nexus fans (Regarded as some of the quietest my spcr forums) which cool OK at 12v and are near silent at 5V

    The silverstone's are pretty good - I've got one of the 120mm and about to order my second & a 92mm one. On their lowest setting they are pretty quiet, but on full they push a lotta air, and arent so quiet
