I just wanted to ask if anyone can recommend a really quiet 80mmx80mm power supply fan?

Dom sent me some info in an email, whihc was appreciated, but its all in German, and I could not really ascertain a price...

I was speaking to some techs out here, and they confirmed what I suspected that getting "quiet" in an 80mm fan is tough because of the revolutions it needs.....

But even if I can get a 30% reduction would be good.

The other thought I had was removing the fan from the inside of the case and mounting an external larger fan, but that makes it difficult to put into the road-case

So I am stuck with an 80mm internal I think...

Any suggestions anyone?

here the best one: http://www.alternate.de/html/product/Gehaeuse_Luefter/Coolink/SWiF2-800_80x80x25/357828/?tn=HARDWARE&l1=Geh%C3%A4use&l2=L%C3%BCfter
only 9.5dB

LOL, thanks Dom...and thats a great looking fan and low noise...But its ALL in German!!

And I cannot tell if they ship international either...I cannot find that model of fan out here, so I am happy to buy from Europe, but the shop needs some English I think.

You can always rely on Ebay LOL!!

Found that exact fan at an Italian Ebay store

So thanks Dom...I will buy that one...
