I'm looking at buying an A8N-E and have only read of people putting on Zalmans ZM-NB47J (blue), The place I am ordering from only has the ZM-NB32J (gold). Does anyone use this version, is one better than the other? I don't really want to have to pay extra shipping from another website if the ZM-NB32J will be just as good.
Thanks

Without a doubt get the NB47J. Standard part of my builds--I NEVER use an active HS fan on the MCP, unless there is no choice in the matter like on some SLI boards.

I know a passive one will be better than an active and will fit the A8N-E, I'm just wondering if it would be ok to use a ZM-NB32J over the 47 as they are both passive and both fit.
