Hey all,
I recently bought a Noctua 140mm fan for the rear exhaust of my new build, now, I bought it because I felt the price was quite reasonable, and the color scheme is easier on the eyes (I have part of the side panel clear, and from where I'll be sitting, I'll see the exhaust fan).
Now, I only realised that while the performance is very similar (Similar noise and CFM), P14s was shipped with only 'essentials' (IE fan and screws only), without the low noise adapter or the anti-vibration pads. I can live without the low noise (should be able to limit it with the mobo), but the missing anti-vibration pads concern me a little.
Do these make a big difference to the noise/performance of the fan?
Thanks
