Where can I get hold of these fans in the UK?
They're supposed to be the quietest power fans available - I did find their web site ages ago but for some reason I've lost it.
If they live up to the hype I'll probably replace every fan in my PC with them- even my dual fans on my Silverado.

Thanks

I'm sorry I don't know of a place where you can get them in the UK, however I did pull two old 120mm ones out of old server cases from the 80's and they have good airflow and are very quiet (and these fans are as old as I am).

BTW- try this website- http://www.ebm.com/search.asp

Pabst sells their products to OEMs through Newark Electronics (www.newark.com) but they cost a bit cuz it's an OEM supplier. Other than this I've only seen them in surplus outlets. Comair-Rotron also makes excellent quality fans....I think even better.

I can't get anywhere with that link - searching for "80mm fan" turns up 836 results and pabst turns up zippo...

Sorry bro, I wasn't sure cuz I've got their paper catalog here and I just tried using their website....it's pretty retarded...I know they'll send you a catalog if you want, but I know that's not a great substitute.....maybe herbach and rademan would have them (http://www.herbach.com/) surplus. They sell good stuff. Hope this helps...
