Best fan for SLK-900a

[N1vek215]

Hey all. I have a SLK-900a, it's been lapped and I have some no name 80mmfan on a voodoomelon duct mod. The thing is I'm seeing the same temps and I can't get this damned thing below 40C idle for my life. I'm guessing I need a fan that provides better airflow.

The thing is I want a GOOD fan with GOOD airflow, and pretty quiet. I have 4 panaflo L1A's in my case, so you pretty much know what my noise tolerence is.

Any recommendations are gratefully welcome!

would you consider a blower?

whata re the benefits? and will it fit my slk900a?

with a little bit of modding, it should fit. Blowers are usually quieter then fans.

You will want to consider this blower:

If you don't mind the noise (not too much when all the way down) a Tornado isn't too bad.

yea whats the best 80mm case fan that would be in the range of 30-37 ish dba.

Hmmm, a Tornado eh? I just had a Volcano 7+ always on low setting which states that it's 24 dba, it was also 70MM

So pretty much anythign up to 30dba or so is fine. I was thinkinga bout Panaflo H1A, are they good for a cpu?

trying to overclock my 2400+ past 2.15 and cooling lower than 40C
