Corsair Air series vs Akasa APACHE

[Jacob.xray]

i was looking at both these fans for a 20fpi rad and didn't know which one to choose. i like the corsair ones better but was wondering if they are going to be a bit loud

Akasa Apache without any doubt.The corsair is running 2350rpm and the apache 1300rpm and achieve nearly the same static pressure and cfm.

Notice that the apache is 4pin pwm.

Just got myself five of the corsair fans, i have to say they are amazing fans. They shift a lot of air but are a bit loud i did buy the performance fans. I got a fan controller and dropped the volts down to the quit setting and you can’t hear them at all. Very good fans in my opinion.

I have two of them blowing over a H-100

Apache 100%, the corsair fans seem over priced compared to a fair few other fans on the market at the moment.
