Need help choosing case fans
Hello! I am trying to find a 120mm/140mm fan with a good compromise between looks and silence. Can anyone recommend me a good case fan?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Noctua fans will always get a recommendation, the NF-A12 and NF-A14 are both excellent. It looks like we only carry the brown/tan versions, but Noctua does sell versions of these fans in black that you can find on their website and online. If you're looking for a combination of good performance AND being quiet, Noctua is pretty much the way to go.
The Corsair ML120 and ML140 fans are good as well, but they can get pretty loud at higher RPMs. If you keep them at lower RPM they're still fairly quiet, though not as quiet as the Noctuas from what I've read. -
It really depends, on the case and what your ultimate desire for the fans purpose. Noctua as TSTonyV said:Noctua fans will always get a recommendation, the NF-A12 and NF-A14 are both excellent.
