Recommend a case fan?

[ncasolo]

I have a Cooler Master HAF 912 case which is setup for any number of different sized fans at the top of the case. I'd like to exhaust air out of the top. Can someone recommend a fan based on size and how quiet it is?

In addition to that I'll be looking to add one to the side panel as an intake. I believe that is a more "standard" size fan. Pretty sure that is an 80mm size. It is the same size as whatever is in front of the HDD bay. Maybe it is 120mm. Anyhow it would be nice to have a recommendation on that as well.

Thanks in advance

Comes in blue too!


Side intake is 120mm, a good case fan would be the blademaster:

The side panel will take a 140mm fan and this one will give you a good air flow at 87 cfm and only 18 dba.

This fan will move air at a rate of 110 cfm and will be quiet about it at 19 dba.

I use these fans, they work very well and come at a great price on amazon!

For high static pressure, you can always try these:

These have 4000RPM, but I've never personally tried these ones:

Always need to take grains of salt with those "free-air" ratings. As soon as you add any obstructions such as fan grilles, filters, ducts and other case structures, those figures go out the window.
