I always said the more the better. I have nearly 200cfm pumping in and a little over 100 going out but ..... My computer sounds like a jet engine when it starts up. If noise doesnt matter go with more if its a problem research and find the best cfm to decible ratio.

krnbk2,
Thanks for the links to the Panaflo L1A's. How come the ones on BG Micro are so cheap, $2.49 compared to about $12 on the other sites? Is there anything different about them or the other sites just rip you off because the fans are so popular?

BG micro is a wholesaler not a retailer. they are exaclty the same fans as what the retailers are selling them for. if you buy 10 of them, they are only $1.99 (thats what i did)Originally posted by DraculaOC
