Reddit mentions of Cooler Master Sleeve Bearing 120mm Silent Fan for Computer Cases, CPU Coolers, and Radiators (Value 4-Pack)

Same price on Amazon right now as well.

EDIT: Heres the link if it helps: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000O8I474/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_s-iYBb93KSHKP

link. looks like it's up a few bucks since i ordered for $8.99 on mar 7 but i'm pretty sure i saw it somewhere else too. newegg? idk.

edit: yeah found it here, originally.

I just got this 4 pack of 120 mm fans and am waiting for it to get here. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8I474/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Edit: It was $12 when I bought and now is $15.

Try making a better light fixture with those lights, if you could get them all facing down towards the plant and in good spacing that would help a ton.

Get a piece of plywood or something to attach them to and hang it above the plants with these attached to the board with some eyelet screws.

Also using a few cheap pc fans would save a lot of room compared to that fan.

These Cooler Masters are great on a budget. Very quiet and provide good air flow. They also come in a 140mm variation that I use as well. Great fans!

For 20$ you should get a cooler master hyper 212+, it has a bigger fan (120mm vs. 92) and will easily allow you to reach the max "on air" overclock of that chip. The stock heatsink will easily allow 3.4 GHZ, possibly more. throw in a coolermaster 4 pack of 120mm case fans, put one on the other side of the hyper 212+, and three in the case. all your cooling needs taken care of for 30$ shipped

for 30$ you might as well get 2x4GB ram. these ones are great

the case and psu are good quality, though you can get the antec bp550w, which is modular, for 10$ more.

170$ for that video card seems pretty standard, with 140$ being even better if you get the rebate to come through.

Reading reviews of that mobo, it seems that the compatible ram list is pretty small, and ram issues seem to happen a lot to that board. in the 100$ range there are several am3+ mobo's which would fit your needs. I suggest going with one that has 2 pci-e x16 slots and runs them at (x16, x8) in crossfire or sli. the one you currently have is x16,x4 which will give less performance if you sli/crossfire down the road. if you don't think you'll crossfire, don't worry about that.

These fans are an awesome deal. However, they don't come with 3-pin to molex converters so you would want to get something like this to plug them in.

Okay I will download MSI Afterburner this evening. Also, I ordered a 4 piece fan system. My case has room for two more fans up top and two on the front. From what I read I can go into Bios and set them as auto depending on CPU temp, correct? I'd like the fans to run when system is under a load and cut back when not. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8I474/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Those look pretty black to me O.o...the rubber ends are to minimize vibration noise. I use Cooler Master ones which are pretty quiet, but not Noctua quiet lol

For stock cooler, you might try a CPU water cooler. Cooler and vastly more quiet. I have H80i which is a decent entry point.

Good luck tho hope you find some!

I too just got started doing my own flavors last week. After I got in everything it dawned on me I would need some sort of mixing or steeping process as I am to impatient. I opted to go for the DIY magnetic mixing table for my needs. Now mine won't have heat like the nice single units on amazon and such do, but it will allow me to mix up to 8 different flavors simultaneously.

Simplest video I could find showing basic principles

Parts I had to buy:

4 port PC Fan Controller (X2)

Magnetic Stir Bars


Parts I already had:

4 Pack PC Fans (X2) I had already bought these for my PC builds earlier and bought what I consider to be nicer fans and went with Cooler Master. If I were buying new for this project, I would probably just go with Rosewill brand.

Neodymium Magnets for the fans (X2) I already had some of these as well in the form of magnets I salvaged from old Hard Drives. If I didn't have those to tear apart, I would buy these instead.

So as you can see for me the mixing table only took an investment of around $30 because of what I had access to. However if you have any friends that do IT work it is hard to believe they wouldn't have old PC fans and busted IDE hard drives they wouldn't just give you. Also you could cut it down to 4 or even 1 fan to start with, and extrapolate from there.

Drop the thermal paste, the nh d14 already comes with it, get this value pack from cooler master, its a 4 in 1 for $12, similar quality to those fans you selected, and the lg ips monitor is at 1080p, the dell one is at 1200p

These fans are good. They come as a 4 pack for cheap! If you want to change the turbo from 4.1Ghz to 4.5Ghz, you'd have to test to make sure the CPU is stable at those speeds. To up the turbo frequency, you could either up the turbo multiplier (sometimes this doesn't work) or up the FSB frequency from 200mhz to 220mhz, which will up your CPU from 3.5/4.1 GHz to 3.85/4.5 Ghz. Again, be sure to stress test!

here is the rosewill variant

Here is the Cooler master variant

I ended up going with the Cooler Master fans, cheap, quiet, get the job done.

If you don't want your buds to molds or smell like hay, you should try to create some air exchange in that box. You want air to be moving around the buds constantly, but not too fast. A couple of computer fans like this should do the trick: http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Computer-Radiators/dp/B000O8I474/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1397338984&sr=8-6&keywords=pc+box+fan. Buds are looking supreme, by the way! I love harvesting, but waiting for my bud to dry and cure in some ways is the worst part of growing.

ditto. I just bought a 4 pack of case fans from amazon. Does around 45 CFM at 2 Watts. I also have a squire cage exhaust fan I want to try out.

Check these out, probably the best deal you'll find, and they have great reviews.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000O8I474/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?tag=pcpapi-20

EDIT: It looks like your case's bottom fan will not perform well due to how low the case sits, so I would leave that one out. One of these 4-packs should be enough (2 in front, 2 in top)

I bought this in 2012:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8I474/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

That's four fans for $13.

I run two on the top of my case, one on the back and one on the side (and a blue one blowing in from the front).

I just put in some loud suckers today as well.


Cooler Master is apparently the brand to go with if you want quiet. Amazon has a nice 4-pack of 120mm.


https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000O8I474/ref=sxl1?ie=UTF8&qid=1467417262&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65

Do you live near by a Microcenter? If so, check out their bundles for AMD.

As for dust filters, I bought two of these. One for my 212 Evo, and the other for side and One pack comes with two. I got one on top of my case and one on front. Those filters are magnetic. You don't need to screw them in, just put it outside the case. I screwed it on 212 Evo because it was plastic. Make sure to screw all 4 otherwise it'll rattle when doing 100% power.

As for the fans, I bought these because it was my first setup and I didn't know about fans. They are very cheap, powerful, and can adjust the speed. They are 2pin, I believe, but it can fit into my 3pin motherboard.

Regarding where to put the fans, you generally want to bring in cool air from the front and push it back.

They are these fans, I believe 3 pins (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O8I474/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) So I basically need 4 pin fans huh? I'm looking to get probably between 4 to 8 fans. I would need 6 120 MM and then 1 larger one i think 140MM. I do not know my budget, how much do good fans typically cost?

Corsair SP120s are pretty decent. Right now I'm using Cooler Master Value fans and they work great for the price.

So does this look good then? Again, thanks for the help.

Also, why do you suggest the Cooler Master HAF ATX over the Rosewill one I had earlier?

Should I just stay with the power supply I have... It's not really expensive at all, compared to some I've seen.

If you're ok with going with a 4-pack and you don't need 3-pin to molex adapters these should work fine for 12 bucks

Edit: this fan looks pretty good too if you want a pwm fan

Also, I couldn't find the exact fans or PSU unit on PCPartPicker, so here are the links for them: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151107 and http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-120mm-Silent-Value/dp/B000O8I474/ref=sr_sp-atf_title_1_2?m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1377652900&sr=1-2

Thanks again!

SSD is not required, but after using a computer with one, I will never go back to a mechanical drive.

I usually pick up a pack of these fans and fill up all the empty fan spots in the case with them.

OK thank you, Ill take a look at those. Would something like this work as I need 3? https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Computer-Radiators/dp/B000O8I474

For cheap and quiet I found these are great, get 2, of course if you want top quality you could look into some phantek or noctua fans.

Cooler Master Sleeve Bearing 120mm Silent Fan for Computer Cases, CPU Coolers, and Radiators (Value 4-Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000O8I474/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5JgNyb559KEB5

Cooler Master Sleeve Bearing 140mm Silent Fan for Computer Cases and Radiators https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00314J422/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_rLgNybEMJ2WM4

If you are just looking for basic 120mm fans you can always grab a 4 pack of cooler masters

Yep, I have this case and it can fit full size video cards and all. 5 of my fans died so I replaced all of the 120mm ones with Cooler Masters (http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Computer-Radiators/dp/B000O8I474). It holds a shit load of HDDs, but not hot swap, so if you want hot swap get something with 5.25" bays and get some converters (or a case with them built in but they get really expensive). Aside from the fans and the HDD thing it's a great case, particularly for the price.

My old one had this value pack which isn't that efficient.

My current one had the case fans that came along with it, that I replaced with Corsair LL120 (RGB) and the old CM fans I mentioned.

If you want the best quiet fans, Noctua has been recommended most of the time in this subreddit.

I bought this Coolermaster 4 fan pack but they are 3pin. I have a fan controller so they were fine for my use.

You could buy the fan controller linked here though i wouldn't run 4 fans off one header.

Well your GPU isn't a world beater you're not going to need to overclock so that throws water cooling out the window.


To put it in perspective, my case came with 2 120mm case fans and I bought another 2-pack on Amazon for like $12. So at the moment I have a total of 4 fans air-cooling my tower and I am running totally normal temps in a normal bed room.


Your stock CPU cooler is going to be just fine for the 1200. If your case does not come with fans and if you are on a budget, I recommend the Cooler Master 120mm 4-pack for $12.95


And just remember the general rule of thumb, you want 2 Intake fans and 2 Exhaust fans. The intake fans usually go on the front of the case blowing inside. The Exhaust fans go on the back and top blowing outside.

Cooler Master Silent Series

https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Computer-Radiators/dp/B000O8I474/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=cooler+master+silent+fan&qid=1563907387&s=gateway&sr=8-3

Used these before. They're shit. Get a 4-pack of Cooler Master fans instead.

I figure some people will reccomend more expensive options, but I have been totally pleased with my Cooler Master fans that I picked up.

Here is the Amazon link (They come in 4-packs)

When I did research on fans to replace the stock ones in the Fractal R4, these ones seemed to present the best price / performance.

I am running 2 120mm and 1 140mm and, with a Scythe Gentle Typhoon on my H60 with a GTX 780 and my case is very very quiet.

I'm not overclocking or anything so I didn't need them to push tons of air, just to be efficient and quiet.

I don't think that particular fan is serviceable. You can get a four pack of Cooler Master 120MM fans for $13 here Or, you could go to a local shop and they might sell you a single fan for a couple of dollars. Heck you may get lucky and they'll give you one. Another option is to check around and see if someone you know may have a spare laying around. A last option, is to use the fan off of the back of the case.

i go for ~150 cfm 120 mm oem system pull fans

like: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dell-Nidec-BETA-V-TA450DC-B35502-35-120mm-x-38mm-Fan-Y4574-/201045054277?pt=US_CPU_Fans_Heatsinks&hash=item2ecf381345

generally, most 120mm nidec beta v, foxconn, delta system pull fans will push around 150 cfm at .7A to 1.6A

alternatively, these: http://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-Bearing-Computer-Radiators/dp/B000O8I474/ref=sr_1_6?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1395092274&sr=1-6&keywords=cm+120mm are price friendly but lower cfm

Cooler Master Sleeve Bearing 120mm Silent Fan for Computer Cases, CPU Coolers, and Radiators (Value 4-Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000O8I474/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_ZCqSAbJY4PTD8

I got a pack of these. They are super quiet.

Definitely stick with PC fans. I'd go with 120mm because the larger fan moves more air while moving slower, so it can stay quieter but still cool your box.

I bought this pack of 4 on amazon, they're almost silent, but you will need 2 or more to cool the cfls. I use 2 of these in my veg cabinet, with some duct on the back of them to lightproof it, to cool 3-4 cfls at the moment, but I don't have to worry about smell from the veg cabinet.

You need to figure out what you are going to do if smell will be a problem. If you need zero smell, then you need to think about a DIY carbon filter and how you will move air through it (more powerful fans would be needed).

For a no-wiring-splicing-needed solution, you can get molex (one type of connector pc fans use) power adapters like this one, and use splitters and adapters, etc to power however many fans you need, or even buy a pc fan speed controller like this one and plug it right in.

note: pc fans have two different kinds of connectors typically, larger molex 4 pins (like I mentioned earlier) and some have smaller 3 pin connector. The ac adapter I linked has a 4 pin molex, and so does that fan controller for power in, but it has the 3 pin for power out to each fan that it controls, and the fans I linked also have small 3 pin connectors. Just something to keep an eye out for if you decide to get more powerful fans than I linked, for example.

To wire mine up, I grabbed a 12v AC-DC adapter (a wall-wart, like a plug for an old router, it says the voltage on the label) and cut the plug on the end off, and cut the connectors on the fans off, then it's one wire to red, one wire to black, if it doesn't work switch them. Some adapters have a white stripe on one of the two wires, that one goes to red. (although I think for most fans it would spin them backwards, arrows on the edges of the fan usually point direction of airflow). Heatshrink it all together (or just electrical tape it really securely) and plug it in.

4 fans for $12

it's just a DC motor with a bearing and plastic turbine and housing. Unless you want the super quiet/long lasting bearing design, then double the price... But idgas about that.

Now, this is it, chief
