when, in a review, the writer mentions a lack of "threads" on the fan, what is he talking about? also, damn newegg has so much damn selection i can't decide on fan, if anybody has any suggestions as to which brand i should look at, or specific models, it would be appreciated

thanks all

Threads? Never heard about threads on fans, but then again I don't pay too much attention to fans. Maybe post here where you saw the reveiwer use it. (i.e. the exact link)

If you want lots of air moving through and you don't mind the noise - Vantec's Tornados work well or Delta I'm told makes some good ones. If you want quiet, I'm told Panaflo are good. Or if you want really quiet and expensice Pabst are suppose to do the trick.
