    Question Case Fans

    Which would be better out of these 4 120mm case fans?



    120mm Akasa Amber Case Fan

    120mm Silverstone FN121
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=292216

    120mm Xclio 16 Blade Quiet Cooling Fan
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=375877

    120mm Zalman ZM-F3
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=396304

    Noise isnt an issue for me as i just dont care

    Which would give the maximum thermal cooling in my akasa-eclipse 62 case?

    The akasa have an airflow rating of 44.8 cfm
    The Silverstone have an airflow rating of 53.24 cfm
    The Xclio have an airflow rating of 80 cfm
    The airflow information was not available for the zalman.

    As such if you wanted the best cooling, then the xclio fans would be the obvious choice.

    They should be around the 11 pounds + VAT mark.

    These were due a week ago but as yet they've not arrived.

    I've been trying to ring our Corsair contact but it's sounds like he could be overseas (the ringtones slightly bizarre) and he's not answering as he could be asleep

    As soon as I hear anything I'll pop a quick edit in here

    Bear in mind that if you buy a case fan that can do 80cfm, it's likely to be a little on the loud side...now you say thats fine, fair enough, but with fans, you can buy a fan controller and limit the volts supplied to the fan to slow it down, reduce noise and reduce the cfm. you may or may not want to do this, but the high cfm fan at least gives you this choice.
