 |
|
| I bought a Zalman fan that was supposed to be ultra quiet. It wasn't and the rheostat that was connected to it quickly broke, leaving it on full blast, 24/7. Pieceacrap. I think it also fried my motherboard, which Intel kindly replaced, recently. I want to buy a good, cheap, quiet fan on Gmarket. What should I get? |

Case fan or heatsink fan?
Zalman case fans are rubbish.
I like Enermax and Coolermaster.
There are better, like Silverstone, Scythe, and Noctua. But hard to get in Korea and/or expensive. |

The one that cools the cpu. I guess that's the heatsink. Thanks, I will look at those brands.

| If it is the cpu cooler you are looking at, I would look at something by Arctic Cooling, becoming quite a bit more common in Korea, good quality hardware. |
