2 dead fans, advice for replacements.
Posted: Mon Nov 05, 2012 7:41 pm
I had two fans. A yate loon DS12 was mounted vertically on a Scythe Mugen. I also had a Scythe SY1225SL12LM-P mounted horizontally to the top of an Antec 180. Both are dead.
A second Yate Loon is still running on the Mugen, as well as a Nexus DS12 on the back out of the case. What would you recommend I replace the dead ones with? I'm afraid to invest again in either of these models seeing these dead ones here.
Noise isn't exactly as huge a concern for me anymore due to a new apartment. I also am running up against my overclocked 4.2Ghz i5-750 heat wise. Any general recommends? I'd like to keep price down as much as possible, as these fans appear to die. I may be reponsible for their death. I don't know whether the DS12 can be mounted vertically. Also, the Scythe had accumulated quite a bit of dust as it sat on top of the case.
Thanks!
