The Delta 220 CFM fan is like $30, but it's 60db. That's vacuum-cleaner loud.

The Left 4 Dead demo has surpassed my already ridiculously high expectations. It will be my favorite game of 2008, with no doubt in my mind.

The best:

Pushing 220CFM at 65dB (now THAT's noisy)

And here is the whole list of the Delta fans... the performance ones are on the bottom.

Otherwise, that Silverstone is the best out there.. How'd you kill it?

As i stated in another thread, I use electrical tape to keep my wiresd out of the way , well I didnt have a fan grill on the Silverstone and some of the elec tape came of the side of the case and a molex connecter hit a fan blade and since i ran the silverstone @ max rpm ( no fan controller) the molex got stuck and a fan balde cracked off *cries* now im running @ stock and have idle temps of 35c and Load of 43c. Not bad for passive coolling, granted to be safe Im alsoi running @ stock.

LOL That's the Silverstone he just wrecked

I'd think one Silverstone should work just fine... I did not give you good results before?
