I’m building a new rig , 8700k and I’ll OC to 5ghz.

Using my current ID cooling 240, the fan is really noisy.

So I’ll like to replace them as well as get new case fans, quietness is key, RGB is secondary.

What would you guys suggest for replacement radiator fans as well as case fans with quietness being key and still push decent air

The GT AP 15 is high static pressure, best for radiators right? As case fans is it still suitable? Also,which shop carries em ah

Keen to know which local shop carry GT.

Placed an order for the GT at Lazada the other day but it was cancelled, cited OOS.

Some recommended Corsair ML but it doesn’t has the 80mm.

The most balanced fan. Airflow is okay, static pressure is good too. No problem whatsoever. If you have a restricted intake (like NZXT S340 or Phanteks P300/P400), static pressure do a better job to bring air in.

I typically get them from Doraemon (t258jgn is his forum name) from Carousell.

You can try ask him see if he still have stock. He's a legit seller, quite well known here.

This so much.

Noctuas are good, but they don't undervolt as gracefully as GTs. Plus, undervolted GTs not only push MUCH more air than Noctuas, they are much more pleasant to ears as well.

Linus's love/hype for the NF-F12s are totally overrated. The only thing that could justify a Noctua purchase is the 6yr warranty and accessories that come with it.

Noctua is just too noisy lah. Doubt their new fan range are any better than just changing the blades.

GTs are the better options there over noctua.

I personally like this, Fractal Design Venturi HP 12 PWM Fan. Quiet and yet I feel it cools pretty well.
