man if this review was out when i bought my 620, i wouldn't have bought it. the stock fan is so loud. i love silent PCs.

i bought couple of Coolermaster Blademaster fans for the 620, not to run at full speed, but to run them at a reasonably quiet speed but get better results that the stock fan. when running them at 1200RPM, i can hardly hear them, BUT i would like to have better cooling performance at same noise level. blademaster is rated at 600~2000 @ 13dB~32dB so 1200RM must be around 21dB.

i need fans that perform better than blademasters @1200, but around 21dB. CM R4's say that they run @ 19dB @ 2000RPM which should be better than Blademasters @ 1200, right? any recommendations?

the review should have compared against the Scythe Big Shuri

It mentions the Kuhler is useful is small HTPC cases where clearance is limited, then mentions the GD05 which needs the Big Shuriken and the table doesn't include test results for the Big Shuriken :-P
