For mounting the Nexus 120mm fan which would be more suitable, the FM35 or the FM44?

Hello:

Quick question (and please excuse my ignorance), but what are the FM35 and FM44?

Well before this can be answered:
What are FM35 and FM44
Where have you seen them

I tried Google, but that didn't give anything usefull.

Apologies for the cryptic lack of detail.

To answer your question bluntly, neither. That's because the nexus fan has a solid core fan screw hole where other fans are open.
You need to cut the plastic between the two edges of each fan hole (front to back) to look like a normal fan.
Once this is done, you can use FM44.
FM35 was designed for thicker 38mm fans like the 120mm panaflo.

These fan mounts are otherwise known as "elastomer fan mounts" and are available from Mcmaster.com (and other places) for about $10 USD for a pack of 20.

Hope this answered your question.
