Hi guys,
I'm trying to build a small, quiet system for my next build and I'm going to be using the Thermaltake Core V1. I'm considering replacing the front 200mm fan with a Noctua NF-A20 - would this be a wise move?
 
Solution
Looks like the fan in the Core V1 is 800rpm, 13dBA.

The Noctua:
800 RPM Acoustical Noise 18,1 dB(A)
550 RPM Acoustical Noise with L.N.A. 10,7 dB(A)

So if you are wanting things as silent as possible, the Noctua (with the Low Noise Adapter) is the way to go.
