Hello all, I'm looking for four blue LED fans in total. Two that are 120mm in size but only 18mm thick to go on top of a Corsair H100i water cooler radiator, and two that are 120mm in size but any width to go in my Rosewill Blackhawk case to optimize airflow. Price is not a total issue, but I'd like to keep it under $15 per fan. However, I am willing to sacrifice a bit more money for performance. I'd like the fans to be very good coolers while being fairly quiet at the same time. Thanks for looking and replying! :)

What I would do, is purchase Corsair AF120 Blue LED fans. And Get The blue Silverstone AP123's for your radiator due to the great performance (and great acoustics) when it comes to radiators (they look great).

Silverstone AP123 $17.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835220059

Corsair AF120 Blue LED fan $14.99 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181046&cm_re=af120_blue_LED-_-35-181-046-_-Product

You can get two Corsair AF120 Blue LED fans in a twin pack for $23.99 on Corsair's website. http://www.corsair.com/en-us/air-series-af120-led-blue-quiet-edition-high-airflow-120mm-fan-twin-pack

My only problem with either of those fans is that both are 25mm thick, and I need two 18mm thick ones for it to fit in my case :p The Blackhawk barely has enough room in it's top to hold two 120mm x 18mm fans, but unfortunately the default Corsair fans are 25mm thick, and I would have to heavily mod the case for it and it would still bow out the top :(

Hi CrucialMove
You have some choices here

Bitfenix spectre pro 120mm 56.22 CFM @ 18.9dba
Corsair AF quiet edition 52.19 CFM @ 25.2dba
Aerocool DS 54.8 CFM @ 15.8dba
The aerocool DS are a nice quiet fan but do not have the same CFM and are expensive

For the price the spectre pro's are the same as the corsair AF but lots cheaper than the aerocool DS
in the 140mm range is where the spectre pro's really start to leap ahead in CFM

The coolermaster jetflo LED 120mm have the highest cfm @ 95 CFM
but at 36dba at 12v they sound like a leaf blower
even with a voltage reducer at 7v they are still a noisy 28 dba

EDIT : my apologies i see you want thin fans , will see what i can do

I like these, but do they (or one like it) come in blue LED? Lol :p I know I'm being picky but my entire setup is themed blue LED and I'd like to keep the trend going. If there isn't though, I feel like these would be the way to go.

i have never seen a blue led fan that thin , thats not to say there aren't any , i have just never come across any , just put blue led strip in your case below them or a blue led laser pointer if you want a blue effect or even blue cold cathodes or neons

Hmm, I hadn't thought of that. How much would an LED strip or something similar cost? I always thought they were fairly expensive (brother had some for his car and they cost $100+)
