Looking for cheap 120mm fans that are not too loud and move a good amt of air, whatever that balance may be. Could also go with 80mm fans but would prefer 120mm ones. Would like to spend no more than $10 bucks including shipping, I know newegg has a lot of 80mm 99cents w free ship when you buy ten, but couldn't find any for 120mm ones. They must be black with no leds, not using these in a computer actually but a side project. If I don't end up buying 120mm ones, which of the 10 for 99cent w/ free shipping 80mm fans would you guys recommend from the egg?
 
lol, they do look pretty good may end up getting them, seems I can get 6 of them for the price of 1 w/ shipping. Anyone know good prices on VAC 80mm/120mm Fans? Radioshack wants 20bucks a pop for them :(
 
In my personal opinion I'd stay under 30db. As for Radioshack, their fans are insanely overpriced.
 
Well these are for a project outside of a computer. So it would be easier to use AC versus DC, as I can wire AC ones directly to an outlet without a powersupply/converter. It seems AC Fans are extremely pricey compared to DC.
 
go to svc.com. they have these great coolermaster 120's that are around 7.00. they are very quiet 22dba, move alot of air and you cannot beat the price. if you dont mind uv. i have one of them, but in a closed non-windowed case color matters not.

Check out the Thunderblades
Some ppl are questioning the noise rating (21dba) but any 1 of my 80mm case fans are alot louder than 2 of these on my hsf.
