These fans are just not cutting it here temps go way to high with them. What would you all here reccomend for a replacment also my sabertooth p67 mobo controlls the fan speeds for the fans. And that is setup correctly even at 100% there not cutting it
 
Even though the V10 is mediocre for what it is, you shouldn't really have cooling problems on Sandy Bridge - they're not all that hot and the TEC bit in the V10 should be fine.

What are your temps? Are you overclocking?

I'd check to see that the V10 is mounted correctly, you've done your thermal paste properly and that fan control is OK before you switch anything out.

Personally though I'd just get rid of the V10 and get something better, like a Venomous-X, and strap some Gentle Typhoons to it.
 
Well, they're case fans so I doubt they'd have sufficient static pressure to work well with the V10 two fin clusters.

If you want PWM control, you could look at Akasa Apache or Noctuas (the shroud of the V10 will hide the horrific beige colour), or maybe some Gentle Typhoons.

Before you do anything though I'd check the mounting of the V10 properly - you shouldn't be having issues.
 
Ive allready replaced them once the real question is can you controll the rpms of any fans with a fan controller? i have a 5 fan nzxt sensey controller i could control the fans with that instead of mobo also can you send me a link to some fans you reccomend for the v10 off newegg
