They also lack static pressure. A low RPM S-Flex would be better.

i remember how big heatsinks just suddenly lose contact because of its mass and gravity.

if a 120x38mm fan will fit on the Noct, I'd suggest getting a Panaflo. I'm using an M1BX on my Mega and love it. 87 cfm, good static pressure, about 36 decibels (I can't even hear it 99% of the time with my comp 4 feet away.) San Aces are slightly better, but hard to find. There are a couple different Panaflo options, some are 2 pin connectors (the cheaper versions) while the [letter denoting speed]1BX series uses a 3 pin.

A 120x38mm will fit on the noctua with the stock clips just fine. A low speed panaflo might not be a bad idea actually.

I can, but i would preffer to run the pc constantly, as i have some applications running on background.

Which fans would you recommend? Not too noisy tho, max ~20dBa. Price doesnt matter. No Leds

@KLK93 -
Ambient temp is about 24-26 degrees C.

I still think that those temps have something to do with my MB. NB is running VERY hot and overall the cooling solution on this board are non existent. Should i get a new mobo?

was looking at that case again online and noticed that there's a faceplate covering the front 230mm fan. Have you tried removing it to improve the airflow into the case?
