Has anyone tried out the corsair air series on different fpi radiators with any success? i'm putting together a mostly corsair build and would love to use their fans if they're quiet and can get me good temps when setting up my water cooling system. How would they compare to Noctuas Scythes or other top name quiet fans?

I don't know why is GT 2200RPM so rear.
It's best fan probably for H100.
