I've got the noiseblocker, what can I tell you about them?
I freaking love them, they're so good!
They're so quiet, I can hardly hear them, they provide good cooling, looks good, they got push/pill pins which makes it easy to install/remove the fans.
@synthaxx im thinking about scythe but wasnt sure on noise and honestly they are always out of stock lol
@inux94 do u use them as case fans or rad fans?
my case is a mountainmod with 7+ fans and prolly doing a push as the noise blockers are 30 bucks a pop and scythe i havnt priced lately but are a lot as well and well as my other threads have shown this build is already starting to hurt the wallet and piss off the wife =p
I use them as case fans, as I don't have rads.
My country doesn't f***ing sell PC parts, the last retailer closed and shutdown, I'm moving to Denmark this summer so I can enjoy my gaming.
If your wife goes mad everytime you spend something on parts, tell her to spend less on make up/something she buys often, except food, always works for me
Noiseblockers and Gentle Typhoons are going to perform about the same under 1000 RPM...most fans are. GTs come into their own from 1000-1700RPM and have the best static pressure of any 120mm fan. A lot of people just use Yate Loons D12SLs for <1000 RPM operation since they're about $5 each and push decent amounts of air at low speeds. They do slow down a bit when positioned horizontally, but bearing wear at such low speeds should be minimal.
