Re: The Nano! #11

Thanks guys!

After a very good conversation on tomshw.it with a guy about H80i's fans, I will change my NoiseBlocker. The main reason is because the one in pull makes everytime @ every speed super weird noise. Noise is actually boring :/

It is not faulty, is just a design problem. Some years ago I wasn't so crazy about noise, but now I want a super quiet system

The noise you're talking about, it sounds like the fans "are sawing the air"?

Could be, you have the same fans I guess. It is a continuous noise that you have only at low speeds. Since I keep them the most of the time around 4-500 rpm, it is annoying

For what I have seen on Google, is a common problem in push/pull or only push or pull with some specific radiators. It is just a "buzz" and yes I tried even with spacers but the noise is always there

Ah ok, in this case it's a buzz noise ... I have the same here and I actually want to switch to high-pressure/low-rpm fans from Corsair.

Yes but I have a question: there is a true (and big) difference between a fan for radiator and one for case? I mean ok, one is with high static pressure and the other with high CFM, but there is a significant difference in terms of performance?

I see your point, I guess you are looking for SP120-PWM Quiet Edition but the static pressure is around 1,29 mmH20. If you take a look about Noctua S-12B (Redux) you will see that the pressure is barely the same but S-12B are "not suitable" for radiators.

I should really check fans for high static pressure or 1,3 mmH20 is good enough?
