    got a need for a couple of 120mm bluelit fans, looking around though the akasa'a dont seem to push much air, the antec's only have 3 led's and other dont really give specs!
    wot fans would you recommend for a good cfm to noise ratio? (they will be through a fanbus so noise not that important coz mostly they'll be running 7v)

    you input appreciated, sick of bouncing from site to site looking!
    :D

    Crazy PC has a 4 LED blue 120mm fan.

    SVC also has a 4 LED blue fan at a lower price but it is out of stock for now - you can try to get an ETA on it though.

    If the antec fans are powerful enough, buy thouse and put your 4 of you own LED's in :)


    No it's a place in the UK :duh:

    the antec ones are weak.

    i've got these in my case:

    36cfm, 34db

    their "sweet spot" is around 9v, still pushes alot of air, but a heck of alot quieter than the full 12v.

    edit: opps they are 80mm :blush:
