Case fans...

[ArBiTaL 24]

Just ordered a LL60 (silver) from xoxide.com (HERE).

But i want to replace the 5 standard 80mm fans and 1 standard 120mm with very high CFM ones. Noise isn't too much a concern. I've heard delta's are good but they "screech" (it this true? and how loud?).

Thanks, ArBiTaL24.

My buddy had 1 delta on his hsf and the thing was unbearable!

if u dont care about noise get a vantec tornado. they have like 55dba. but they will cool ur comp very good. and 5 of them will make it sound like ur running an airport.

 

[ArBiTaL 24]

LOL No, i don't want it FOR THE sound, i said sound doesn't matter.

Differance.

Also, can i have CFM's please? THX

If sound doesn't matter at all, then you would typically go for the loudest fan, because that's the one that will blow the most air. The 80mm Tornado blows at 84cfm

 

[Army_Of_1]

80mm Tornados are 84.1CFM.
120MM Deltas are 130CFM, that's the highest one anyway.
TT SmartFan 2 pushes 75CFM at only 49dB big dif. compared to tornado and basically the same airflow.

OOHH nice! It doesn't screech though, does it?
Any links??
THX, ArBTaL24.

Edit: i Army_of_1 posted b4 i could drop this. So, links to those as well?

this will give you a good idea what a delta screamer sounds like

here is a 80mm Stealth, Adda, and Tornado compared. (bad audio though on tornado just a bunch of rushing air it does seem less high pitched though)

Thanx for the links. That thing is LOUD!
Are there fans that have high CFM, and maybe the sound of a lot of air rushing through, without sounding like a hairdryer on full speed?

 

[Cheezboy]

hehe your on the border of a large office and normal speech in terms of dBA

LOL
Did you see what they wrote about it?

Well, you must be hardcore. OK, how about crazy? You must be if you're looking at this fan. We've had several requests for these, so here they are. 190 cubic feet of wholesome goodness. It sure "feels" like it too. The FFB1212EHE has "Server Use Only" written all over it. If you do decide to strap this jet engine in a desktop PC, be sure to apply a second sheet of Dynomat to save your ears.

lol!

 

[ArBiTaL 24]

The funny thing is, the case has 5 fans and a 120mm, so i'd have 5x that plus THIS!, because i would like to keep them all the same

 

[Cheezboy]

you might just be the first person to have your pc literally take "flight"

you'll come in one day and see your PC hovering like a harrier jet

 

[crion]

haha yeah that thingy can heart your little ears
buy a smart fan 75cfm and only 50db i think.

 

[ArBiTaL 24]

LOL
actually, i might get quiater ones. I put my volume up half way and put that noise on repeat- i had to turn it off after 10mins .

 

[ArBiTaL 24]

If sound doesn't matter at all, then you would typically go for the loudest fan, because that's the one that will blow the most air. The 80mm Tornado blows at 84cfm

LOL i just listened to that thing on that "listning room". Sounds like a rocket taking off!!

 

[ArBiTaL 24]

I've heard that panaflo's are quite quiet- but whats their CFM's?

 

[cullam3n]

120MM Deltas are 130CFM, that's the highest one anyway.

That isn't true. Some of them do over 200cfm.
