I have an older model antec preformance plus 1080 case with 3 - 80mm single speed case fans. I have room for 2 more fans one in the side panel and one in the front panel sucking inward. They don't seem to move enough air with my new build of a core duo E8500 with a Sapphire HD4850 GPU card.

I checked Newegg and the sheer number of case fans and types is mind boggling. I don't need leds just a couple good fans with mobo speed control capability. Can someone suggest a decent fan that is not mind numbing noisy?

in newegg, there is an option that will let you choose the amount of noise the fan your looking for is givng off. another thing to look for is the maximum rated CFM ( cubic feet per minute) try to choose something in the middle while ajusting other options. this should get you down to about five to ten options, much more managable and much more particular to what your looking for.
