My case is louder than I'd like and I'm looking for a good mix between silence and airflow since I'm looking to replace all of my fans in my case. Preferably no LED.

My Fractal Design HF12 is louder than I thought it'd be, but it moves a lot of air for its size without getting overly loud. At full speed, it's just louder than the pump in my AIO, but with a 70% power limiter, it's inaudible.

Fuck yourself you neckbearded nigger. If >>>/v/ was even remotely useful, I'd go there

Nocuta is the best

But I use these as they came with my case. Bought 1 extra so now I have 2 in front, 1 back.

They are loud at max voltage but I ruin them at low/medium setting on a fan controller

Cougar Turbine, cant beat that price

Will just any fan controller do or is there a good one to look for? I only have 5 fans in my case right now

My fucking ass. I wish there was an actual standard to rate the loudness of fans, and that each fan came with an airflow chart showing how much air it can move at specific RPMs.

That's why I came to ask /g/ because there is no good way to look at specs and get a good idea of what a product will do
>>
>>53396071
There's a guy on youtube that tests almost every single case fan in existence for decibels. I don't think it covers CFM, but that number isn't important unless case pressure is an absolute necessity (which it isn't 99.9% of the time)
