och Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I absolutely hate how noisy the stock fans are on this unit. My two noctua 120mm case fans are pretty much silent at 900rpm, but the Corsairs at the same RPM make quite a bit of annoying noise. I ordered some Noctuas to replace them. They are 140mm 4pin PWM fans, so I'm hoping I won't have any issues. I will update this thread once they arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-attack Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 The A14 industrial pwm will work just fine. However, Noctua does not mince words and industrial means just that. They won't be as quiet as the standard brown & latte A14. They are effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used a Noctua 120mm Noctua industrial fan on my previous CPU cooler - Corsair H50 and it worked great. It wasn't silent but far better than stock fan.

och Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 Wow, replaced the stock fans with Noctuas, and its so much better!!! Almost silent at idle and even at high RPMs ridiculously quieter than stock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 I've got 2 of the brown fans waiing to go onto my H110iGT (already replaced the 3 front 120 mm fans with them) but I saw the video about the new Corsair ML fans and thought that I'd wait a while longer.

IcEWoLF Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 We can all agree that Corsair should ship out their AIO coolers with better fans because the ones they include are total junk to be frank. I replaced mine with the Thermaltake Riing fans, not only they look cool, but they are quiet and no vibration noises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper69 Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 I'm not sure that I'd agree that they are total junk. I've been using the stock fans since I got the cooler and they have been good. The fact that I bought Noctua fans to replace them but I haven't done so yet says something for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
och Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 I junked the old Corsair fans right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
