12L and L1A

[Gamingphreek]

Im looking ot buy a fan and a new heatsink for my system. Im already buying a SLK-947U at SVC but i want to get a panaflo fan. They are out of the L1A's but it says that the 12L is the exact same, except maybe a 3pin connector instead of a 2 pin. Are they really the same. Reply ASAP plz, i wanna order tonight 🙂

They are the same model. Just see if they are Japanese or Chinese manufacture since the Chinese fans have a sort of clicking noise. 🙁

Oh yeah, the 12L will work in the SLK947U right?

God i hope so!

[calam63]

yes

Would it have been better for me to get the biggest fan it supports? Like a 90mm or a 120mm, i dont know which one is the biggest it supports.

Sry bout hat was talking in MIRC. Are there any fans that come close to the Panaflos in terms of volume. I want to order them but case-mod.com is fresh out. Kinda wanted to get them from zipzoomfly.com or newegg.com so I would get them at the same time as my other components.

Wish I would have jumped on that case-mod.com deal ThermalRight hs and panaflo fan for 30 bucks. Sent them an email asking when they would have the fans back it so should have an answer tommorow.

Ok what did you say?

I think you asked "would it still be quiet". The answer I believe is that yes it still will be.

BTW: I have a 92mm 12M Panaflo fan on my SLK974 and it is inaudible from under my desk. I do however hear the Panaflo rear fan (120mm 12M at 86CFM and 35dba) and the stock Antec 120mm which I moved to the front.
