For the fan you currently use, these are its specifications...


Pretty much any 25mm thick fan worth its salt can outperform that fan. Do you have the room to use a thicker fan?

I have been using Scythe 120mm's for years and they are great...they have some of the highest CFM (24-96) for they're class type.....and the ones I use are quiet. Plus they have what I would defend is the BEST customer support I have EVER come across....I had one fan die, and they sent Me TWO....new ones...but they took the liberty of upgrading the replacement fans to they're best model's...all with one simple E-mail on My part...and a single reply from them.

Thats My two cents..The "Grand Flex is what they sent Me for replacement's...and they are REALLY quiet, and also have variable speed through My motherboards built in fan controller software.....this is a link to the ones I am Currently using..
http://www.scytheus.com/product/grand-flex-pwm/

Connector Type......4 Pin
Noise levels......13.5 ~ 34.5 dBA
Air Flow......24.2 ~ 96.8 CFM / 41.1 ~ 164.4 m³/h
Fan Speed.......600 ± 250 rpm ~ 2,400 rpm ± 10%
MTBF of 120,000 Hours, which isn't bad @ all, they are a Bit expensive though...$25USD on newegg, BUT as I said they REALLY stand behind they're products with FANTASTIC support.

P.S.>>>(and they come with Molex adapter's , and Rubber stand off's for Vibration concious buyers)


EDIT::::: Sorry I didn't realize You needed 200mm....My bad.

Not unless he posted the wrong link, either a 120, 140,or 200 mm fan.
Second on the Scythe fan's. Very long lasting, even if you need to re oil them every few years !
BTW, there was some really nice Gield fan's here TPU for sale hmmmm...............

yes i do have space for thicker fan, and no its not 200mm fan its like the picture above say it is 140mm
.....and now i realise that i posted 120mm fan from corsair
EDIT:what about this one ..,if its all about numbers this one is most impresive(maybe they lie???)

Too expensive. What you want is right in the Thermalright line. TY-140, TY-141, TY-143, TY-147. All are perfect for the job. You can pay twice as much for a Noctua NF-A14 or NF-A15 and get only a little bit better fan.
