Looking to replace my stock fans as they're pretty noisy at higher speeds.

Looking for something efficient but less audible! I wanted a pair of 1800rpm Gentle Typhoons but they're hard to find at a good price.
I was thinking of these : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=35-233-035&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&Pagesize=10&PurchaseMark=&SelectedRating=-1&VideoOnlyMark=False&VendorMark=&IsFeedbackTab=true&Page=2#scrollFullInfo

Would these be alright? I think it would match with my 600tse case too. I'd go with Noctua's but I can't stand their color scheme.

I was wondering about this too!
I was going to suggest Gentle Typhoons, but as you said already they're hard to find

I tried Noctua's too, but I REALLY do not like the colour... I guess one could paint them? *shrug*
Also they didn't seem to have enough static pressure.

I'm going to try an AP-121 from Silverstone as a pull, and see how a Gelid wing as a push to see how it sounds/cools.

If not I'm just sticking slightly slower Gentle Typhoons on it (1450rpm instead of the 1850).

I'm not too sure on the Xiggy's you've got linked there, perhaps someone with more experience can lend a hand.

If you don't want to shell out for Gentle Typhoons, pickup a few Swiftech Helixs. They're $8 ea. from Sidewinder Computers

My vote is for these as well. They are like cheaper Gentle Typhoons.
