I don't know the sound levels of noise. So any way of telling me how loud this fan is. It will be for the rear of the case. I might have two 92mm intake fans. So I was thinking of this fan for the rear. It will be the only outlet for air.

Air Flow 80.16 CFM
Power 10.8 W
Fan Speed 5700 RPM
Size 80x80x38 MM
Connector 3pin
Sound Level 52.5 db
Bearing Type Dual Ball Bearing

If it's a Delta, and it looks like it is, it is <b>incredibly</b> loud, and also has a high pitched whine that is much more noticable than other fans of similiar decible levels.

Yes, it is a Delta and that is what they clam. It is mean and loud. I just wanted a confirm on that. Sounds to loud for me.
Thanks.

It depends on if you're hearing is bad or if you like earplugs :) 

I'm running dual Deltas and they are very loud.

Delta's work great but sound like a leaf blower.

Thanks all for your responses. I'm building a Koolance PC. And was concerned about cooling the case, I found out a fan won't even make a difference. So I'm just going to use a normal 80 mm fan for the heck of it. Thanks again.
