I just finished upgrading my PC, and it's running like a beauty. Then I started thinking about upgrading (or at least replacing) my old case fans. I have an Antec Super Lanboy, which holds two 120mm case fans, a blue LED clear fan in the lower front, and a rear clear fan in the upper rear. They have served me well, and I can't complain about the noise (though I wouldn't mind it to be even quiter!!!). I'm looking to replace them with something close to appearance, just better cooling and lower noise volume. Can anyone recommend any good brands or specific fan models that I should look at?
 
If you want real cooling then get Scythe Ultra Kaze fans, 133 CFM and 45DBA. If you want a fan thats not as loud, cools decently, and has blue lights go for the Aerocool Turbine Extreme.
 
The Cougar Vortex has rubber fan mounts to prevent noise from vibrations, doesn't use bearings but uses hydraulic oil to lubricate, and has a streamlined centre shaft to maximise air flow.
