Fans?

[NaveDrahcir]

Im putting together a brand new computer (Athlon64 + Asus K8V Se Deluxe) in an Enermax Case (Model "CS-EN5171LBFS-B"). It only came with one 80mm fan (with blue LEDs) on the side window...

So I would just appreciate any recommendations for good and quiet fans
2 x 80mm (rear)
1 x 120mm (front)

Blue LED's to match the side fan would be a plus, but not critical if they offer less performance for some reason...

Anyway, never put together a computer before so no past expirience. Any info/brand suggestions would be appreciated.........Thank you!

There are so many fan choices out there, it will make your head spin.
Enermax has a cheap fan for $6 on Newegg that is adjustable.
Antec has the lighted ones since they claim they had it first.

what's the quietest fan that is still efficient that can be purchased on newegg. I'm using an antec 1080awg case. And Newegg rules!

Function over form: Panaflo!

Form over function (but still a decent fan): CoolerMaster! The Coolermaster fans will be slightly louder than the Panaflos, and are much more expensive.

or performance over form and quiet: Volcano!

And yes, I am illiterate.

airflow or quiet most important? (i.e. overclocking heavily or not?)

NMB or Panaflo L1A for quiet, tornado or Delta if you're deaf, panaflo and er loads of others for the midrange.
