Kinda pricey but well worth it...
You can never have enough fans to test, right?
I like this sorts of threads very much

Any eta's on new fan shipments to test?

I know I'm a lazy git but is there any way to compare the your review results without looking at the post for each fan?

Thanks

Thanks, I know there will be. Was just trying to compare them as it is now and it's a right mare... and I'm too lazy to make my own ledger of all your fine work.

Understand how that goes. Whenever you get a round tu-it is when it will be. And that's fine. There's a lot of fans and a lot of work ready done. Searching within thread and/or skimming to each test is not near as much work as you did gathering and testing them all.

Are there any good fans with an FDB bearing at around $10 these days? Thermalright's FDB seems to be eol, Scythe's Kama flow 2 seems to be sitting at $15 thanks to the US supply issues. What other comparable fans are there? Corsair's SP and AF series when they're on sale?

Zalman ZM-F3-FDB or Zalman ZM-SF3 when you can get them on sale. I've seen them around $10-12 on Newegg sale prices.

Cougar Vortex HDB's are not a bad option at $12 right now.

GeLID FN-SX12-10 or FN-PX12-15 fans can be had for ~$10-12 as well. Don't let the 50k/hrs MTBF fool you, as that's at 40*C. I also have one and it's a Hydro Wave bearing (Panaflo's FDB essentially.)

These guys are probably my favorites just due to the normally low price & good balanced performance.
