120mm yate loons ($3.70 a piece - discounts on 5+)

80mm yate loons ($2.49 a piece - discounts on 5+)

Sunbeam Rheobus Fan controller ($12.95)
<-- these are awesome fan controllers. Can support 20w (a crapload of fans) on each channel and is amazingly priced

i just got the fans and controller in.......VERY impressed.


the 80's are silent beside the air moving and the 120s are quiet at about 75% but blow a lot of air at 100%

i couldnt have asked for a cheaper solution that turned out this good. +rep for the info.

the only bad is the LED's on the controller are F@CKING bright. i had to cover them, i wish i had a door on the front of my case.

Glad to hear you like them! They are definitely great bang for the buck fans... as for the fan controller, yeah - those LEDs are like freaking spotlights. Aside from that though, it's awesome, cheap and provides support for a TON of fans
