noctua fans are great. Ugly in color but work excellent. Dust with spray can if need to change color of them
Maximus XI Formula, I9-9900k, Phantex Evolove X, Seasonic Titanium 850W, Custom loop PE360+SE360 Rad, G.Skill Trident Z F4-3200C14 32g, Nvidia Reference RTX 2080 TI, Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1Tb, Windows 11

ill give them a look colour no problem

Honestly, I use the Corsair AF 140 Quiet Edition, on my H110i GT. Out of boredom, I added the Fractal Design case fans in a push/pull config. The Corsair fans came with a voltage step-down adapter that I used to daisy chain two into one header. I was considering the Noctua's, but they are so damn ugly...lol The step-down adapter allows them to run at 200rpm less than their maximum and they are quiet.

Good luck deciding!

NF-A14 without a doubt! Very popular for the H110. Quiet, with a nice sound quality and cool great. I love the Noctua colors to be honest.

Under load, I will hit 71c using RealBench w/ 1.390v @4.8Ghz. My mem is currently operating at 1.355v/3200Mhz. In hindsight, I probably could have gone with 2400 or 2666Mhz DDR4, but I'm happy with my selection. There's a bit more tidying up I can do with cable management, though it doesn't bother me too much either. I wanted air to flow easily through the case and eventually over/out of my vidcard. My system is virtually silent in operating. I'm very pleased with my overall build.

chino just ordered some of those chromax silicone fan holders 4.95 for 20 thanks for that mate and your instructions are working wonderfully
