Well, after a full week of intense 4k gaming (assassin creed origins using up to 250-270w with 99% gpu load...ok far away from Mass Effect Andromeda with its 320-330w..:)), my last Cerberus-x setup is working like a charm.

Very quiet (near silent) with idle or low charge.

Quiet while gaming (hearing wind sound mostly)

Even under heavy load, gentle typhoon spinning at 1600rpm are fairly quiet (by 1700+ rpm, it’s becoming noisy)


I’m still looking to fin true heir of my gentle typhoon but i’ve failed to find them yet.

Here is my current contender list :

  • Noctua new upcoming nf-a12 : well a lot to know about them...as they are not released
  • Fractal design hp-12 : motor is becoming noisy a bit too quickly
  • Ek vardar 2200 evo : well, only 50k hours lifespan, not confident about their noise level...but as great as gentle typhoon on pull position on radiator
  • Corsait ml pro 120 : not confident about motor noise. Blades are not fully optimised for radiator

Do you have any quality pwm 120 fans advices ?
