Silent Fans

TskTsk

I'm looking to replace the 80mm fans in an Antec Fusion 350 Remote case with a more silent alternative. Can anyone recommend some, and where to source them from?

Just got some Noctua NF-R8's and with the UNLA adaptor can't hear a thing.

Looks good, thanks.

Do you know anything about these, they seem very quiet?

Also looking for a recommendation for a low profile CPU fan for an Antec Fusion 350 case. The quieter the better

No, sorry, I just go with the recommendations of others. The Noctua are quiet (i know more expensive), I have a 90mm in a cage, 90MM on the CPU and 2 x 80mm added to the back. It was only when I added the 2 x 80mm to the back using the ULNA adaptors provided, that things became quiet, my sky box is louder.

You could email them and asked for their opinion based on your set-up. They are responsive and helpful.

I got three NF-R8's too, they're very impressive. Also bought a Zalman CNPS7000C-CU, which turned out to be a perfect fit for the Antec Fusion 350 case and is almost silent when running at reduced speed.

Thanks for the advice.

Just be aware that thewse silent fans only push a small amount of the air that a traditional noisy fan would blow.....
