Any good thermally controlled quiet 92mm fans?

92mm fans seem to be hard to come by. Anyone know of a good and quiet thermally controlled 92mm fan?

If I can't find one, I'll just opt to use the 80mm Arctic Cooling Pro 2L TC...
 
Not thermally controlled, but Thermaltake makes a god 92mm fan called the Cat. It has vents along the sides of the same as well as the main hole. Something like 54cfm at 21dba. Costs about 8 bucks too. Too good to be true? We'll see.

Yeah, expect it?s not a good fan. Those "vents" are useless and the specs are way off.

To the topic thermally controlled fans don't work very well. If you want the fan to react to system or CPU temps get a normal 3 pin fan and control it with SpeedFan.
 
You should be able to get either a Panaflo H1, L1 or M1 or Enermax fan that can be controlled by your mobo's CPU header... That way it spins up as needed, and probably faster than the thermal sensor would detect. It would also allow you tighter control. Of course, unless you just connected a speed control unit to it.
 
jab-tech has just what you need grab the XP-90 a Panflo H1 or M1 like Akira34 mentioned get a Zalman fanmate to dial in the perfect performance/noise setting and you will not be dissapointed. Arctic cooling does make good quiet coolers but the setup above can give you just as much silence, with the option of better cooling/performance by simply turning up the fanmate.

Why mess with a fanmate when you can control the fan through software?
