MORE HELP GUYS!!

ok continuing on from the topic of cpu cooling, i need some fans! im looking for a a good solid fan that is quiet (doesnt have to be ULTRA quiet, but the more silent the better), while still being really good at cooling.

120mm is the size im after.

heres the catch though... given i live in a third world country, the range of fans avaliable here are lacking, so whichever fan you guys suggest would have to be avaliable at one of these 2 sites. dont mind the prices, they arent in USD, its NZD.

http://www.computerlounge.co.nz/components/componentlist.asp?parttypeid=40&t=3

http://www.ascent.co.nz/Category.aspx?majorcatID=13&minorCatID=162

to be honest, id love an illuminated fan, but if it comes at the cost of quality, id rather do without the pretty lights, so please take that into account,

and also one final thing - ive read the specs and looked at the noise levels and airflow specs of plenty of fans, and assumed from that info i could make a choice, but after looking at some reviews, ive found that the specs provided by the companies arent always so honest, so some opinions based on personal experience or trustworthy reviews would be appreciated.

thanks for all your help, guys.

Yeah..it's expensive but you know you will spend your money on a quality product.
When it's expensive it means something Smile

our internet is second only to mexico's

we have a woman leader

our mighty government has declared hdtv evil

we get all the latest technology... 5 or 6 years after everyone else.. and it still costs way too much

and lots of other stuff that frustrate me greatly.

about the only GOOD thing i can say about this country, is that nothing bad happens here... seriously, we dont have natural disasters, and in every movie ive ever seen, nz is the only country that doesnt get nuked, invaded, sink beneath the waves, infected, or otherwise destroyed.... shit i dont even think were on any american maps, so if they ever wanted to invade us, theyd probably end up in australia.


back to the fans, plz keep suggestions coming!
