Cooler master sickle flow, is it worth it?

[TomProx]

Awesome, do you know if they can be fan controlled? just incase im downloading or what not while sleeping?

all of my case fans are hooked up to a fan controller.

my link didnt work, but i am using the nxzt? "sentry fan controller"


i like this one, its touch screen, looks cool. some of the reviews said it had fan compatibility issues. My cooler master fans, and my no name after market fans all work just fine. lowering the juice to a fan to slow it down it lowering the juice.. dont really know what these "compatibility" issues were all about.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Ive been reluctant to buy the NZXT sentry 2 because of all the negative compatability issues.

Im definatly going to buy it because by the looks of it, its a great fan controller and i like the look of it and its pretty low in cost

cheers!

Do they give good airflow btw?
do they keep the temps low?

 

[Mrthorp]

which ones? the CM or the after market? the CM fans at 100% do not seem to move as much as these after market fans. at the time though, i was looking for the cheapest , highest CFM fans w/ free shipping i could find, lol... im cheap, cant lie.

having now looked up this fan again, it runs at 39dba, no wonder the CM fans seem so much more quiet! if i run these fans on 60-70% i cant really hear them, if i run them at 100%, they hum and whine like no other. but, you can feel the air just bellowing out.

just as long as 3 CM fans and a 140mm top fan ( deciding which to get ) can keep my case cool ill be happy

I don't know how some guys here say the typhoons are the best. Them suckers are loud. To me loud sucks. I don't want to hear the fans period. Get a Noctua or the Coolermaster sickle fans (if you turn them down, full speed they are loud). Loud does not equate to Better.
