My antec super lanboy front case fan doenst seem to be pushing much air anymore, and makes a whine when the PC first starts up, any recommendations for fans?
From what i read that could possibly affect ur cooling, hey i could b wrong to ya know?.. and theres a metric ton of dust built up in the front that I need to blow out
Wow you cpu is lower temp than you system temp. To me that says thatOriginally posted by: Crusader
My problem is my system components are to hot.
ATM nv monitor is telling me my GPU is sitting at 71C, System@45C and CPU@39C (currently at 1volt/1.2ghz..)

I've been looking round at fans and found the Xilence Red Wing listed on e-bay. I'm not sure of how accurate these numbers are or if I am missing something, they just seem stupidly good.
dimensions:
120x120x25
voltage:
12 VDC
start voltage:
6 VDC
power consumption:
< 1,2 W
rated current:
< 0,10 A
fan speed:
1.400 rpm +/- 10%
bearing type:
hydro bearing
max. air flow:
68 CFM
air pressure: 2,3 mmAq
noise level:
21,2 dB
weight:
140 g
68CFM for only 21.2db.... can that be right?

I did think those particular stats seemed a little ridiculous!
I've been looking round for something a little more believable I'm considering getting the Akasa Amber Series.
- 44.8CFM
- 1400 RPM
- 18dBA
The problem with all this is that by the time Ive spent all this money I would have done better to just get a watercooled system!

How you gonna move air through the radiator? All PC cases need some active air flow, a 120 in the PSU and/or an exhaust/intake fan.
The Akasa series are rated in the real world not fantesy.
The fan you spoke of is 25mm thick, moves more air and is rated quieter than the 38mm thick Arctic fan I linked.
Yate Loons are a cheap way out. If I needed fans, the Arctics would be near the top of a very short list.
