Here is what I have come up with from my expert research (lol jk) and my 8 years in the computer game :

Evercool EC8015HH12BP (80X15) (38.9dba @ 6000rpm)
Evercool EC8010M12CA (80X10)

Leaning on the EC8015HH12BP right now..
Don't tell me SilenX because I've tried and they aren't all that great. Neither is Silverstone. And I am not buying the Noiseblocker. Other than that, open to all suggestions! Thanks!
 
What's wrong with the noiseblocker? That's the best thing I ever did to my ST45SF-G :D
 
I've had some evercool fans in my Thermaltake Armor A30 case, not exact same model number and I think they were 60MM? I just sold them to someone on my FS thread but anyways, they were loud at full speed but turn them down even to 80% and it was quiet and they moved a ton of air for their size, just a friendly opinion on small evercool fans.

good luck

Yes, I have heard good things about these ones (EC8015(L|M|H)12CA) as well. But I am assuming that EC8015HH12BP I listed might be a newer revision? It is double bearing while those are single.

Really expensive, questionable brandname that is new on the market, ive read reviews that the bearings are whiny and the design rattly. Not willing to blow $20 to experiment with this one, but thank you for the input.

Good to know. Yes, this fan will be regulated. I doubt it will be running > 50% at all honestly. But this is a good to know and a testament to Evercool's build quality..thanks!
