Hey guys so I've got an Antec P180 case and an i5 2500k. I also have an SLI setup with 2 GTX 460 1GB so case is pretty full. Anyways I've been looking at 3 different coolers, the Noctua NH-D14, the Antec Kuhler 920 and the Corsair H80. The H100 is out of the question since it won't fit inside my case, but taking into consideration that noise is probably my most important factor, what would you guys advise me to go on? I understand that the H80 and the 920 both seem to beat the D14 in tests but I'm wondering how they'd compare when the fans are at their lowest temperature. Also, do either the H80 or 920 have the ability to be controlled through my NZXT Sentry 2 fan controller? The D14 would fit fine by the way in my case and would not interfere with my RAM I already made sure of that. I was just hoping to get the quietest computer possible without sacrificing too much performance.
 
Oh and I forgot to mention the D14 is 89.99, H80 is 89.99 and the 920 is 70.99 after MIR.
