Hi all, I recently got into case modding and using UV light, and now I can see my LEDs are really going to effect the UV coming from them.
My fans are all Xigmatek XLFs, they're very nice looking fans but according to Xbit labs they don't actually fair too well.
I will be and have dropped my case fans significantly, although I love LED fans I now only want bare minimum, power consumption + noise.
I have two top fans and two front fans. PWM may be a nice addition but I have voltage control so not exactly essential.
I am looking to sell all my XLFs to have some good fans that'll do well at a low RPM and spin up under load to produce a good CFM rate. My XLF for my heatsink is a higher RPM and CFM fan, so anything to replace that too.
XLF - 61cfm ~ 63cfm
Xbit tells me they hit 25cfm
I want to replace dual top fans for 120mm ones, preferably coloured blade or if anyone can suggest cheap pain I can use to modify them?
Front fans 140mm~150mm fans, again I will want to paint these if it's easy.
CPU fan, 120mm unless a 140mm fan can attach to it, something with umf.
What I have seen so far, no idea about them.
Xilence Red Wing/2 Component fans
Coolermaster Sickleflow (LEDs are very dim I used them before)
Akasa Viper
Cheap fans are a must here, I need 5 nice fans, but can't spend £50 on just fans, so <£10. Preferably £5.
Thanks all
unless it's best to stay with mine
NOTE: Forgot to mention, there is now no way for air to come through the sides, it has to come through the front, top or rear, I have sealed everything else off. (Acrylic window)
