    LOL, yeah the fans are way too loud and inefficient.
    Like I said in my build log I will see how it goes with some different fans - Scythe Ultra Quiet 1600RPM (3 Pin) that I have laying around.

    Scythe Ultra Quiet
    Fan Speed: 1600RPM
    Fan airflow: 68CFM
    Fan dBA: 28 dBA

    With that spec it should be much better all round. Fingers crossed.
    I may get time to do it tomorrow, if not over the weekend.

    The spec says 22db and 93,4 m³/h what's that in CFM lol
    So the Noctua's are quieter but they're still brown.

    Looking at these corsair fans http://www.dabs.com/products/corsair...87J.html?src=3 reckon they are a tad quiter than the Noctua. and 2 for the price of one Noctua.

    Then theres the performance ones at the same price http://www.dabs.com/products/corsair...S2.html?src=12

    hmm decisions?.....which ones Lloyd old bean?

    Yeah but those are AF (Air flow) fans which are for cases.....you have to have SP (static pressure) fans for rads and coolers.....it also tells you in the description m8.


    Air Series AF fan models perform best in unrestricted spaces with at least 3cm of clearance, and they’re ideal for mounting at the rear or top of your PC case as exhaust fans for your PC’s motherboard and CPU, graphics accelerators, and other components that fill the case with heat. They work equally well as unrestricted intake fans for areas like side panels or bottom intakes.

    For high restriction areas like hard drive cages or in other tight spaces where there’s less air volume, check out our Air Series SP models of high static pressure fans.

    they do 2 types of the SP fans one is the high performance

    Airflow 62.74 CFM
    Static Pressure 3.1 mm/H20
    Sound Level 35 dBA
    Speed 2350 RPM


    And the normal quiet edition

    Airflow 37.85 CFM
    Static Pressure 1.29 mm/H20
    Sound Level 23 dBA
    Speed 1450 RPM
    Power Draw 0.08 A


    am i correct in thinking the high performance is the same at 1450rpm but then can reach higher speeds and airflow when ramped up?

    Yeah that's right.
    It doesn't say if they are PWM or not?

    what is pwm?....something to do with voltage?.....my fan controller has only 3 connectors where as the corsair fans have 4, i had to cut the connectors to fit the 3 on them.

    PWM = Pulse Width Modulation IIRC, yeah here you go..

    EDIT: I have found the Corsair PWM versions
