I am looking for some high CFM low DBA, 3 pin, LED relatively cheap? The only thing I have really found is the aerocool turbines but I have heard bad reviews from them. What are you guys using?

Antec Tricools...but only if you can get them at a decent price. They are usually around $15-20. But I paid like $5.99 each, at Microcenter.

He said low dBA and high CFM, not the other way around lol.
There's really no great LED fans that push a lot of air quietly. I think yate loon makes some decent quality blue LED fans, but they probably aren't the quietest fans out there, but if you want high CFM, noise is a given.

High CFM =/= Low DBA.
If you want lower DBA: Zalman F3 If you want higher CFM: Antec Tricools or Yate Loons (remember, LED Yates are in no way on par with normal Yates.)

I would have said Zalman F3 but they're not exactly cheap.

Antec Tri Cools, I like them, fairly quiet (at least for my standards) and push a good amount of air.

The plastic on LED fans creates a lot of vibration and tends to crap up the dBA. Why not just get some normal case fans and a Dual 12'' CCFL kit?

Surprised nobody suggested these bad boys (edit: Nevermind - just noticed that Marin mentioned them):
http://www.jab-tech.com/YATE-LOON-12...d-pr-3824.html Cheap (under $5 each if you buy 3 or more), no weird sounds except for whooshing air when they're at full speed, and throttle back nicely with a fan controller for nearly silent operation. I have 4 in my case and love 'em. I also have a blue LED Antec Tricool and it's noticebly louder than my Yates dialed to 1000 RPM while on the "low" setting.
