Small point about bearings. How to distinct a good or bad one. Almost impossible at home. It ain't only about lubrication, but how within specs they are. Often bad and written off batches venture back into black market and got mixed. So despite getting SKF or NKE ones(I am not even talking about china ones), you or your seller might got be scammed with a out of spec unit. At some loads due to size imperfections they start to whine... and that's life, just roll in an another one.
@ValantarReally? I don't hear that at all and I set them at 2.3 to 3.3 Volts (+/- 300 to 540 rpm) when browsing and such.
Hmm, this is a repost. I swear this this was posted last month.
As for fans I've used a few Sanyo Denki ball bearing fans back in the Athlon X2 days that are super smooth and and just as quiet as hybrid type bearings Noctua and others are using.
I only have the GT15's (1850rpm 3-pin)If they sold them a bit cheaper sure. Still waiting for the black versions..and ThermalFake will NOT be an option.
GTs historically were never cheap, so I don't see why that would be different now... And honestly if you want cheaper fans Arctic P12s are almost neck and neck with A12x25s for a quarter of the price, I very much doubt these will compete in that range... The P12s also have a 140mm variant, and the bearings (so far in my experience at least) are better than GTs.
Say what you want about maintenance and user serviceability, I don't want to have to open up my fans every 1-2 years to lube them. I'll gladly pay Noctua the extra $5 and go on with my day.
