Hey guys, I need some general pointers on how I should be looking for 140mm case fans. I can navigate through newegg with filters but just wanted some general guidance from more experienced members.
they will be used for : 2x top exhaust fans (horizontal?)
what types of fan bearings is optimal for this use and position? i know sleeve and 2-ball is bad for this.
my budget is: trying to aim for $15 shipped per fan (unless you can sell me on better/expensive-r)
currently with my requirements filtered on newegg = click here newgg link
-non-blacks fans have priority over black fans, but not a deal-breaker in any way
P.S
round-framed fans - do they fit in 140mm mounting holes like normal?
what can you guys recommend me ?
**the rosewill hyperborea really sticks out; that cfm to noise level seems awesome
