I currently have this beast of a cooler and its hands down one of the best air coolers you can buy. Can you replace the stock fan with something else? I was thinking about replacing it with another fan model (more for aesthetic purposes because I am going for a mostly black w/ red accents theme).
I assume you can just use the fan clips on any 140mm fan, but what about buying a separate set of clips and adding an additional fan?
The included fan is actually a great fan:
Thermalright 147B
Rated Speed: 300 - 1300 RPM
Noise Level: 14 - 20dBA
Airflow: 16.9 - 73.6 CFM
They make a black version that has identical specs (which I guess I could get, but it looks pretty simple). I was possibly thinking about replacing it with a be Quiet! Silent Wings 3 140mm High-Speed and adjusting the speed for the ideal noise and airflow rating, but I am not sure what I would have to set it at.
Any thoughts?
