Good fans for Corsair H100.

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
I was planning on buying some fans for Corsair H100, but I want blue led fans, since I have a blue-themed build.
Would the COOLER MASTER SICKLEFLOW 120MM 2000 RPM be any good?

Would the Thermaltake Thunderblade be any good?

Any other fans with blue leds that would be better?

I don't really care too much about noise.

Input would be much appreciated. Thanks guys.

if you don't care about noise then get some deltas or san ace fans. If you want the best bang for your buck, get some yate loons.

You can try the Silverstone Air Penetrators. They are pretty decent.

Silverstone APs are good as case fans, but not radiator fans. They're actually quite lackluster in that regard.

CerN, your best option would be (in general) either Akasa Vipers or Scythe GentleTyphoons. Cougar Vortex fans are also well regarded, though the GentleTyphoons are the go to and most preferred radiator fan. They have an excellent static pressure to noise ratio.

I don't know too much about this, but the Silverstones I see the specs are 35,4 kfm. While the Sickleflows are up in 60-70kfm?

Good case fans do not always translate into good radiator fans.

Air flow does not equal static pressure, there is an extremely distinct difference.

I never said airflow equals static pressure eh-smiley.gif I'm sure these fans would work excellent for a radiator......

Sadly I can't order from Newegg as I am from Norway, and I can't see to find these anywhere else. Thanks for the recommendation though.

Do you guys know if these would make good radiator fans?

or these?

EDIT
I just stumbled over these http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gelid-Wing-Pl-Blue-Pwm-Pc-/dp/B003LM0F2C/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1336227583&sr=1-1
They seem really good? Pressure is at 2.66, and pretty high CFM too.
If you guys think that these will be good, then I will buy them.
