what are the best, quiet, cost/performance 80mm fans?

[kevman]

I've ben shopping for some new fans, and I'm confused. I want something that's not too lud, but I want it to be effective as well as inexpensive. Can anyone recceomend any thing?

I've been looking at the ones here, but I'm not sure whcih if any are good dfor my needs. I would like to eventually have an AMD chip in my setup, so I'd want something effective. Thanks all!

sunons are pretty good for the most part
panaflos are usually cheap (<10) and efficient and very quiet
also try the enermax adj speed fans for around 10 bucks they can be set manually 1000k-3000k rpms

I vote for the enermax. You can check Crazy PC I just got mine and they are very cool! To start, they are purple with clear blades. Plus, they do as advertised. I have been "fine tuning" them and have the quietest, best cooling set up now. I am running 2 of them at half speed, 1 at 1/4 speed and had NO temp increase, but it decreased the sound a ton!

Papst, or panaflo

Hey MoFunk, how does the fan control work? Is it just a knob? And do you happen to know how many CFM's they're rated for? Thanks

best, quiet, cost ?

You can have only 2 of them . I personaly like the Papst, but i never owned an Panaflo... Papast are a little pricey.
Cheers,
