120mm fan recomendations

Where do you guys buy your Yate Loon fans?

Silencio_777. I believe you get a 10% discount if you mention silentpcreview. I haven't tried this as I ordered when the fans were discounted.

I'm currently testing one of the Coolermaster 120mm Blue LED fans I bought from Scan against a Akasa Amber 120mm bought from Furton on these forums.

Using a Fanmate 1 with a 3pin fan splitter, with both fans undervolted to the lowest setting (5v I believe) the Coolermaster is quieter but doesn't push much air. The Akasa pushes more air but is a touch louder.

Haven't tested them in a case but at this moment in time I would recommend the Akasa.

Hope to test against Yate Loon 120mm Blue LED (M speed) and Black (S speed) fans.

I'd recommend rubber fan mounts whichever fans you get (the mounting terminal type, not the lame gasket type), they really do help.

Technique I saw on SPCR (by Bluefront) use some cable ties to mount the fan with some rubber between fan and the case.

I use some blutack between the fan and the case as I think it does a good a job if not better.
