00:00GPU Fan vs Case Fan, which quiets your rig voiceover script
00:04Everyone argues about this, and honestly, both sides are wrong.
00:09Your case fan pushes air through a box.
00:12Your GPU fan fights for its life against a heatsink with almost no room.
00:16Different jobs, different fans, so I went and found 5 that actually fix noise instead of just moving it around.
00:23Cheap ones too.
00:25Let's get into the best deals for GPU Fan vs Case Fan, which quiets your rig.
00:30First up, the one I'd buy if I only had one shot.
00:34This 80, 90, and 120mm quiet fan comes in basically every size you'd need,
00:40so it works as a case exhaust, a CPU cooler swap, or a radiator fan, and it's 556.
00:464,300 sales and a 4.8 rating, that's not luck, that's people buying 4 of them and coming back
00:52for more.
00:53If you're replacing one loud stock fan in a rig that's starting to sound like a hairdryer, start here.
00:59Second one is basically the same deal from LDPC SJ555, 8, 9, and 12cm, 4.7 stars, still pushing 3
01:07,000 units.
01:09Here's the honest truth, at this price the difference between these two is noise profile and how the bearing holds
01:14up after a year, not airflow specs on a box.
01:17Buy whichever size you need and whichever is in stock.
01:21If you're doing a full case cleanout and want matching fans, grab a set of these and stay under 20
01:26bucks.
01:27Now this is the interesting one.
01:29This 95mm PLD10010B12HH is an actual RTX 3060 Ventus 2X replacement fan, $4.80, and it's got a perfect 5
01:39-star rating across 1,700 sales.
01:42That's the whole point of this video.
01:45When one GPU fan starts rattling, most people think new card.
01:49You don't need a new card.
01:52You need this.
01:53Pop the shroud, swap the fan, and your Ventus is quiet again for less than a coffee.
01:59Just match your card model before you order.
02:02Number 4 is the odd one out, and I like it for that.
02:06This CL8028L11 is a centrifugal blower 80mm, 12V, 260mA, built for projectors and printers, 719.
02:16Blowers aren't case fans.
02:18They shove air out one direction under pressure, which is exactly what a tight GPU shroud or a cramped vented
02:24enclosure needs.
02:25If your noise problem is air trapped in a small space, this is the shape of the answer.
02:30High speed, so modded with something soft between it and the panel.
02:35Skipped, on-screen text slash b-roll cues, add when editing pass starts.
