I have a full tower and want to get two 120mm fans. one blowing in at the bottom and one blowing out at the top. right now i have 2 80mm plus the PSU fan. My question is what is the best way to balance the 2 120s and the PSU? i have read i the forum that positive air flow is best and i am going to put a filter on the bottom intake which will limit air flow in. will this allow to much negative airflow? i dont want to use the 80mm's because thay are old and loud.
Also i was looking at these fans at 2cooltek:
Panaflo 120mm L1A 68.9 cfm - 30.0 dBa
Sunon Quiet 120mm by 25mm Fan, 4 pin 69 CFM - 35.5 dba
Sunon 120mm 3 Pin Fan 84 cfm - 35 dba
Sunon 120mm 4 Pin Fan 108 cfm - 42 decibels
YS Tech 120mm 3 Pin Fan 131.5cfm - 45.0decibels
Panaflo seems to be what most here on the forum prefer. but how much lowder will the 84cfm sunon be? does 5dba make a big differance for 15 more cfm(will that make a noticable differance). as usual i am probably over analising everything. i just want a good deal on a lot of cfm with little noise. I would appreciate any input. thanks
