Hi Yall'...Is anyone running Scythe fans?? I read somewhere that they were really performance oriented AND quiet...I'm currently using Panasonic Panaflo fans on all my cases...They move some air no doubt!! But they are loud...

It's OK..I'm use to it...I'll definatly keep them from a performance standpoint...But if the Scythe Fans are of a similar performance and quieter to boot...I would consider a switch...It would be nice to loose some of the noise if possiable...

I'd definatly love to hear from any one who is running the Scythe fans...But if you've had a Panaflo fan also it would be great to hear a comparison from a noise/performance standpoint...

Thanks..

If you're interested in quiet fans that still move some air, check out Silent PC Review. The Panaflos generally get top marks, depending on which model you have for quietness.

While you're looking around, have you considered any of the Vantech products? Not bad from what I've heard.
