I'm considering adding a front fan to my new Fractal Design R4 cabinet but I the Noctua and Noiseblocker case fans I have experience with do not fit.

Can anybody help with some suggestions?
Must be incredible low noise as I'm sensitive to noise.

Thanks!

These would be the top three I would look at, in no order. There are others but these three brands I have found to hold up the most over continue use.


I have one case that runs 20 corsair fans in a push pull on my rads that have been running for over a year without shutting down the computer. Another that runs 4 enermax fans, that ones been running for almost a year with no issues.

There are other brands out there that are cheaper and will get the job done, but its always the question of how long will they run. Ive had some cheap fans...
