Ok. im fed up of my fans on my case, there so loud. i used to think my old PC was really loud, but when i switched back to it today i couldnt even here couse my new one is so loud.

I need 4 80mm blue fans that are prety much silent. Anybody know of any that are recomended?

Thanks :)
 
well silent is subjective but when you're running an 80mm, it takes a faster spinning fan to flow enough air than say a 120mm fan. so the faster the fan is running, the louder. if you can, try upgrade them to 120mm fans.
 
nah i cant use 120mm. i just want the quitest fans around, dosnt have to be blue thinking about it ill just get some £5 neons

cheers
 
get a fan controller and hook them all up to one channel... that way it splits however many watts per channel between however many fans. funny, when i want to make my case quieter i just hook up another fan and it slows the others down a bit. lol
of course now all i can really hear is my cpu fan when temps get high (its temp controlled) and my power supply fans.
 
Lol, this is why i didnt but an ebuyer case... the fans are crap.

I would get thermaltake fans, I dont knwo if you can get 80mm versions of my 120mm fans, but they are 21dB, and they are really quiet. Nice performance too.
 
Silentmaxx has some pretty translucent blue fans, but don't have anything in the way, 'cuase they get really noisy if there is significant airflow obstruction.
