What size? I like the Vantec Stealth fans myself; good flow and very quiet

iono.. I just need a fan 'cause the one I have is insanely noisy, and is rattling and stuff.. or maybe that isn't my fan? o_O
Either way I should probably get a fan anyways 'cause I've never changed it before...

I need a new one too... one that makes the CPU really cool but a very low dBA. LOL, my fan right now is like 35dBA and it's reaalllyyy annoying.

Maybe SilenX has something you're looking for

Their 120mm fans are awesome looking for the dba/cfm ratio... too bad I can't fit them in my case though.
