Hello, which one of these fans will be the best for a good oc (4.5GHz) on the intel 2500k.
The case I will be using is the cooler master elite 430.
My cpu cooler will the coolermaster hyper 212+.
I plan to put these fans on the rear, 2 on the top, one on the side and 2 to replace the fans on the cooler.

How would it compare to the Scythe Gentle Typhoon 1850 RPM?
Debating whether to go LED fans or not, for me performance is all that matters.
 
The Zalman fan is the most balanced of the three.
Personally own 6 tri-cools which are very good btw but loud on any setting other then low.
I also have a SickleFlow and it's good but nowhere near the 19db CM claims.
Here's proof.

I like quiet fans personally.
So i would buy some FDB fans from Scythe or Thermalright.= no led
Scythe S-Flex F or Thermalright FDB-1600's would be nice and quiet too.
