    Thanks for these videos! I want to get a MO-RA3 with those fans as well, but I‘m trying to get it as quiet as possible. Do you think putting fans on both sides (so 8 in total) and running them at lower rpm) will be quieter than only using 4 fans? Thanks in advance!

      Hey there sorry for late reply. In all honesty these radiators still performs well with 4 fans at their lowest RPM. Even on full chat the noise is still very much minimal! I hope this helps 👍🏻

    I used one to keep my cable modem/router cool as they are extremely quiet when used with a resistor.

      They are great fans. Even at full speed the noise level is very low!

    what speed were you running them at here? Edit: nevermind, I found the part where you said full speed which is 800 RPM, correct?

      Yep that’s right the fans were full chat at 800rpm 👍🏻

    Would you recommend a NF-A20 to replace 2x Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-14 PWM 140mm case fans as front intake fan behind a dust filter and case mesh?

      It would not be exactly necessarily, but I am a Noctua shill so the answer is yes 😂

      It not a bad idea. I like the 200 mm fans because you can run them slower and the the same MAF. That makes them less noisy.

    Anyone tried with CM HAF 500 TG case? I want to change original 200mm with these ones. Fits?

    i onc ehad corsair LL140 fans they were really quiet... are these even quieter?

    • @ROWDY.404
      @ROWDY.404  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hey, yeah the Noctuas are quieter but, bare in mind there is a fair size difference between the LL140 and the A20 so RPM will play a part in this 👍🏻

    • @AB-80X

      What difference there is will be affected by how much mesh etc. the air goes through. Some cases are very noisy by design.

  • @AB-80X

    I honestly think these tests are a bit misleading. The fans usually gets somewhat louder once they have to draw in air through mech and grilles.

      Hi, I think for you to call what I did a “test” is abit of an over reach, as all I did was take them out the box and switch them on full load. This was just to give the viewer an idea of what to expect. As the title stats it’s an overview not a review. Due to all mentioned above I have to disagree I don’t feel like I have mislead anyone at all. Thank you

      I will agree with you. I am looking into fans right now so I have watched a bunch of videos. Some are demos while others are tests. I guess after watching a bunch of test stuff, your vid kind of fell into that category as well because that was where my head was.
      But you are right. This is more just a demonstration. I do still wish that people do these would touch upon the fact that a case might have an impact on the sound. Very few do that.
      But apologies for unfairly calling you out. It’s a good video in general, I was just caught up in a specific train of thought I guess. Mea culpa.

      I appreciate your honest response. I understand what your saying and it is very easy to assume after taking in a lot of content 😂 I agree people should touch on the fact that there may be a difference in the noise based on how restrictive the chassis may be. I will remember this point for any further vids on the topic! 👍🏻

      The 140mm fans on my AIO and my gpu's fans are ridiculously louder than the 4 200/230mm fans on my case.
