I'm a little late to this discussion but which are these new GTs that are being discussed? I'd love to check out as I am a huge fan of the originals!

I just did a quick Google search. Are these new GTs the Servo Gentle Typhoon fans?

Here you go

Finally got time to dig out my NZXT Sentry Mix 2 - Gonna start hooking everything up and also switch back to the GTs soon. be nice to have all my fans be able to switch to from wind tunnel mode and back to barely audible at the flick of a few switches again.

gonna look real sweet at night with this white glow.

So minor changes are also needed. one of the LED strips has a few dead LEDs, that one will get switched for one that wasnt plugged in

my 480mm rads are now cooled by SP120 QEs and Thermaltake Riing fans, and my 280mm rad is cooled by noctua redux fans. the only thing i hear from my case now are my stupid 3x 4TB seagate hard drives. now i just have to wait for SSDs to fall in price some more...

Ignore the me in this (was years ago), but none of the fans mentioned will ever touch these for static pressure on radiators.

Sure, that is great if all you want is performance. I really liked how you used one of those fans to cool both the cpu and gpu in a mini itx system. That was a pretty epic little system.

Thanks I miss it. They are pwm fans power them via the psu and use a fan header to control it.
