I'm trying to decide whether or not to use the Sunon 50 CFM 40dBa fan in conjunction with a new ALX-800. If the Sunon is louder, then I may want to use a different fan, because I'm trying to queit my case down a bit. Any suggestions for a high CFM, low dBa fan for an ALX-800?

Get a zalman 7000cu

They are way quiet and cool very well!

And yes a 40db fan is louder than a retail cooler.

Thanks, but it's too late for me to get a Zalman, becuase I already have the Thermalright sitting at home waiting for a fan. Since that Sunon is way too loud, looks like I'm going to need another Panaflo.
