Default If it hovers, even better

Ok, everything is set for me returning to benching. However, I want to maybe purchase some fans. Some fans that will force me to tie my rig down or it'll run away from me.

Any recommendations? Only thing is I have to be able to power it with my PSU, I don't want to have to get a Meanwell PSU or something just for the fans LOL

Check out local tech shops.... ask if they have any dell case fans from dead dell computers... Those are almost always Delta fans, and if you hook them up to a molex w/o control they will hover easily...

Most places will just give them to you, or at least charge very little for a used fan.

Let me see if I have a spare 12V industrial PSU flying around. You can have it for free if I find one.

If you dont mind noise the 3K ultra kaze cost about 6-7 bucks gota search for that price thoough.
However even turned down they are loud. (one of mine clicks when under volted, others may too I usually just through the rad outside though and not bother listening to it at all )

High FPI? Go with a 38mm otherwise the yate loons are fine. the HS are pretty noisy at high speed but dead silent at lower speeds. But you are not going to have the pressure the 38mm can give you.
