-----------------question #1-------------------------​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
is that going to be any good?​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
is it gonna block the fan so that the heat are harder to get out of the case??​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
or it's gonna help the heats getting out for the whole case ??​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
and also since my main purpose are getting a nearly quiet as possible configuration​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
my thought is the whole H100 set it on "First level - quiet mode"​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
is this for the even the original fan come with H100 going to be loud?​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
and i will have to get another 2 fan for the H100 in order to do the push and pull​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]
do i have to make all of them the same fan??​
[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

[/font]
fan like​
[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

[/font]


[font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif, Helvetica]

welcome to the forum,

for a non-production use, non-gaming use PC, thats got a lotta horsepower for the

minimal amount of work. unless you are just a power junkie and like chest-beating

numbers or what... questions:

1. you would use the push/pull when using the H100, the 200mm would have to go..

2. again, unless you plan to be running 4.8 1.45 vcore OC 24/7 youll wanna find

some quiet 12v fans that move a lot of air forcefully. but if there isnt a need for the

overvolt, the H100 fans in the first position will suffice and fairly quiet. check out

Tom's video on noctua NF-F12 review H100.

3. ok, heres where the you have to make a real decision, if you intend on having

liquid cooling or an air cooled rig. filling a cabinet with fans does not always equate

to a cooled case. finding the proper balance of flow, pressure and flow-path are the

elements about fan usage and control.

4. it can, that is optional fan placement.

5. thats gunna depend on question 3

6. researching here on OC3D you'll find a pile of reviews from members on different

choices of fans, setups and noise opinions. some may have a softer ear that can

here mice fart.. some have headphones on and really dont hear the ruckus. so

it'll sound differetn to you than others. choices are:

noctua nf-f12 pm for focus and air pressure and quiet

bit fenix pro for quiet and LED/non-LED

cooler master blade master for air pressure and flow

gentle typhoon ap15 for pressure and sound

artic cooling ap12 pm for quiet and flow

cougar, swiftech helix, entermax, guild, phantechs,silverstone.....

easiest is to work with what you have and if it can not suit the work, then question

you have x and it is y, what can z offer?....

hope this didnt muddy the water...

airdeano

Thanks for the help,

so basic question

which 120mm quiet fan you recommend me
 
I agree with what airdeano is saying. Just plan out the airflow in the case well and you should have a quiet rig. the nf-f12s are great radiator fans as for case fans the noctua nf-p12s or the NF-S12Bs are both very quiet and perform well. I think airdeano did a good job at covering everything and i dont really have anything else to add.
 
Nf-f12s are expensive (in the fan world) but they're pretty much unbeatable at their job. Just depends if you can get past their colour scheme
 
The gentle typhoons (AP-15) are very similar performing to the Noctuas, and at a few pound cheaper.

This forum unanimously argues that the NF-F12s are better where as American forums and testing seems to show the Scythes out on top.

There's next to nothing in it IMO, and because of that, I'd rather just save the money and buy the scythe
