I want to buy a 140mm fan or two for my CM690/780i build. (as seen here)

The quieter = the better. 600~800 RPM maybe? Up to ~1200 is OK as long as the fan is good quality since I could always use a rheostat.

lopri... im using 3 of the 140mm yates from jab and the are quite. I can't hear them at full speed. I did cut out the fan grills on my 690 though so that might make a difference so ymmv.

Ya know, 140mm Yate Loons are what I never got from my order with Nexfan, which is why I'm disputing the charge with my credit card company. I never did try ordering more from another company. Maybe I will.

lopri i have two on my cm690 and there great quiet fans. Only problem, you definitely need a 140mm fan mount hole.
