I have an NH-D14, and want to replace the fans with silent-ish PWM ones. I'll be moving into an R4 later (from my current CM690 II). I was looking as an extensive but year old test done on OCN by a guy who tested several fans in various configurations on his NH-D14, and came to the conclusion that I should replace the 140mm fan with a Thermalright TY-140 and the 120mm one with an Arctic Cooling F12. I'm pretty sure the F12 is still a good fan, but has anything replaced the TY-140? Or are there any choices you guys would recommend?

just replaced my stock LL fans with 3x 120 and 1x 140 Rosewill PWM fans. Cheap, work so far!

TY-140 still best.

Things really only equal it, without being better than it.

Awesome. From what I can tell on Thermalright's site, the TY-141 and TY-147 are the same fan in terms of performance? Except the 141 is 2 ball bearing instead of "Enhanced Hyper-Flow Bearing" of the 140 and 147, does that make a big difference?

The TY-140 is a Fluid Dynamic Bearing, which is quieter.
