I noticed my equipment is getting a little hot during this summer weather, could anyone recommend some pretty silent case fans?
I currently use a big typhoon as my only fan (for CPU of course) so anything blowing at that level or just under would be fine. Even if they dont push much air, a little is far better than nothing. Thanks

Some Noctuas maybe?
I have 3, they do me fine. They are a little pricey though, i think, still.

I like the Noctuas as well. They are dead silent, move a sufficient amount of air, and are a high quality build. On the other hand, they are the ugliest fans on the market and are quite pricey. I just removed 2 from my case recently because, I have been wanting to try the clear door/led fans approach to my rig and I have been pleasantly surprised by the Coolermaster R4 120mm LED fans. They give a nice low tone glow and move a lot of air but, they do produce slightly more sound than the Noctuas yet I like the CMs more.
Good luck.

120mm model - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835214001
80mm model - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835214006 I own three of the 120 version and two of the 80's and they are simply amazing. They are whisper quiet and push quite a bit of air. After I bought all of them and replaced all of my other fans my case airflow is just rockin now. For what it is worth I don't notice any temperature differences with the side panel on or off. Most people see temp drops when they take the side panel off with the rush of fresh air going inside the case.

Well the only fans I managed to find that was recommended here that was on a english site were the fans Fossil recommended (Enermax Magma 120mm Fan with Batwing blades), pretty pricey but im sure they will do my case justice
