Default yate loons compare to coolermaster 690 stock fans

Hi all

I'm looking into getting some yate loons from petra's to replace the stock fans in my cm690. My only concern is noise. Are the YL's (either l/m/h) louder than my current fans?

The stock CM690 fans are quiet, but they don't push a lot of air. The L-model Yates are the most directly comparable, but I think the M-model Yates would be your best bet for replacing the CM fans, if you want comparable noise (maybe a bit more) but much better airflow.

Unless you have a fan controller (or plan on getting one in the near future), in which case you should get the H-model. That's what I did, pretty satisfied with it. The best budget fans out there.

I do have a fan controller, so I guess it's not a huge problem, I can just throttle the fans back if they're annoying me

That is exactly what you should do.

Just get a high speed fan (trust me you dont know when you really need it) and use the fan controller to turn it down.
