Quiet (relatively) Good Airflow Good Static Pressure Rubber mounting Reliable (2+ Years so far) Look Good 4-Pin PWM (change RPM without affecting brightness)

Price 4-Pin PWM (brightness of LEDs will change if your motherboard does not implement PWM correctly for the case fans)

These are basically the best fans I have ever used. You may find fans that have higher static pressure, or higher air flow, or maybe even are quieter, but you won't find one with all of these things in good order. These fans move a lot of air, so they are loud at full RPM (but no one runs them like that). Run the software that hopefully comes with your motherboard and allow it to tune your fans RPM. You will be very pleased with the performance you get when they are at low RPM, along with how quiet they are under about 1,200 RPM. I used four of these in my 760T for over 2 years, and they still work like new.

-Magnetic bearing. -anti-vibration rubber dampers corners (guess they are replaceable). -400 to 2000 rpm range is fantastic. -4-pin PWM -possibly the new go to fan for gamers still using air to cool. -LED looks great -LED get brighter as the RPM's increase

- at 2000 rpm these are 37 dBA . (Great by standards, but id go to a lower RPM fan if you cant adjust speed and plan to just run at 100% power.) - LED cannot be manually adjusted. ( not a big deal ) - LED cannot be turned off (again, not a big deal to most. id have gone with Corsairs RGB triple LED kit if i cared about lighting more then quiet) As you can see, i'm nit picking , not a lot i can complain about

As someone who values quiet as much as cooling for my gaming cases i have been a Noctua fan user for years now . They have been generally excepted as one of the best at that . . not any more, , i've already replaced every Noctua fan in my gaming case, 3 x 140mm , 1 x 120mm with the ML Blue LED's and its noticeably quieter and temps # are showing its cooler. just be warned, at 2000 rpms this thing hums like a jet engine and moves air like one. 100% worth every penny
