Quiet Case Fans

Honestly you can't go wrong with either, my personal preference is Panaflow.

HeroOfPellinor Whats the story with Nexus, who makes their fans?
 
Oh the only reason why, its able to go quieter the nexus fans is that they spin at a considerablely less rpm only 1500.
 
You might want to consider going with a 120 fan setup. It can run alot slower, thus alot quieter, without comprimising air flow.
 
Yeah the only problem is that i can only fit 2 80mm fans for the rear, i guess i forgot to say that i was using for the rear of my case. I even modded my case to allow two rear exhuast rather than one 80mm that used to be there.

Or should i got for a better, case but i was thinking antec sonata, i heard that they are really quiet but i dont want to put down 100 on a new case unless i really like it or its really good

I believe the 80mm fans are Dynatron. The 120mm are Yate Loon....not sure about the 92mm, but I have one of each and nothing compares that I've tested. Ask around and check silentpcreview and other reviews.

Hmm.... Dynatron isn't too hard to come by, but I've never heard of Yate Loon before.
 
I use lots of Panaflo L1A + a couple Vantec Stealth (Nidec). Both are quiet but the noise from the Vantecs sounds more like motor hum while the noise from the Panaflos sounds more like air flowing.
 
Just get a couple of Zalman fan mates and lower the RPMs on your fans. It basically does the same thing. Even better, because if you need the extra RPMS you simply adjust them. Enermax also makes decent front panel fan controllers.
