im getting the slk3700 and was wondering if these were good. i know tehy are a bit loud, but i wil use a rheobus (or something similiar). so i ask, is it really <30 dba @ full speed? isit worth it to get a rheobus on it? will i lose alot of performance before i get quiet? also, if i shouldnt get this, what should iget? (2x120 mm for case, 1x92 mm for slk-900) for teh hs, ive been looking at this . again, is it good, blah blah blah, anyone have one, and is it really 20 dba pushing 38 cfm? seems to good to be true but i hope not.

The 120mm aluminum fans are nice. its actually pretty quiet. and it moves a ton of air.
I also just got a 92mm zalman, and its really quiet too. I can't tell you the actual cfm, but both of these fans push a good amount of air for their noise level.
I'm going to use a rheobus on the 120mm, because i'm going for a silent case, but its way more than acceptable for a normal system.
