120 mm fan suggestion

[hofinder23]

what's a good fan to put on my sonata as an exhaust with these features:

1. quiet
2. pushes at least 70 cfm
3. has a blue led

thanks.

70.5cfm, Yate Loon, the same brand of fans rebadged as the Nexus fans. AND it's blue led like you want.

For some reason they list the CFM specs on this page: http://tekgems.com/reviews/yate-loon-120-12-25mm-roundup.htm , but it's exactly what you are looking for.

You'll hve to check the exact airflow, but take a look at the Antec TriCool series. It has a speed adjustment switch so you can be as quiet as you want and it comes in all the normal LED varieties.

I use two of these in my P180, as well as a couple Antecs that came with my case. I like the Thermalrights because they have blue LEDs, each has a PCI slot controller knob and can either be very quiet or very loud, depending on how much air you want to push.

thanks for the help! i read your post and did some research. tweaknews says that the knob works like a switch giving you only low and high and really no option to pick variable speeds. do you find this the case for your fans?

If you need to control the speeds of your fans you have a few choices....

Vantec NXP-201-BK Nexus Fan Controller (Black)

or

ZALMAN ZM-MFC1 Fan Controller Panel

Poop, my Quote function isn't working.

Anywho, hofinder, no, I disagree. While there is a small dead zone near the lowest and highest part of the knob, you have complete control over the speed.
