Firstly, not sure if this is the right place, but seems to fit to me.

Im looking to replace my current set of [rather noisy] case fans which are a mix of 80mm and 120mm ones.

So far I have come up with two options:

Xilence Red Wing: Computer Supplies and PC Components from Novatech
Enermax Magma: |Specialtech.co.uk

If anyone has experience of either make, Id be happy to hear what you think of them. Noise level is the prime criteria rather than leds etc.

here's a few ''near silent'' chassis fans you may want to look at....


1... ''Noctua NF-s12b flex'' are great fans, 57CFM Low static pressure

2... ''Sharkoon Silent Eagle SE'', 1000RPM and comes with resistor wires to further lower RPM and noise if you wish, excellent performer too.

3...''Noiseblocker NB-BlackSilentFan XL1'', 1000rpm / 41CFM @ 13db....
