hi there, i'm looking for some really quiet fans to go with my quiet system, and i figured some of you would have quiet HTPCs.

I bought a 120mm Silenx 14dBA fan previously, but it was so loud even at 7volts that i returned it. An absolute rip-off at 20 quid!!

anyone had any experience of acoustifan, scythe etc?

the fan needs reasonable airflow because i have some hot components (look at my signature)

I will be fitting a thermaltake schooner fanless heatsink to the x800gto, so I need good quiet fans.

Thanks in advance

YOu might want to check out HardwareCooling.com they have some Scythe S-Flex 120mm fans that is really quiet. I picked up a few of them and I could barely hear them. It must got to be one of the quiest fans I've bought.
