Help me pick a sixty BY TEN mm fan...
I know a 60mm fan can't be quiet but I'd like to get the best for a reasonable price. I'm not paying $13-14 for one of those SilentX. It needs to be thin, 10mm is preferable but I could probably squeeze in a 15mm one if need be. I've looked and can't find any of those JMC Panther ones anywhere.
Anyway, I've found two I'd like to ask for opinions on. This one at 3dcool and this one at Directron. The reason I chose those 2 is because I can also get the 40mm fan I need for my video card there and save on shipping. Probably either would be better than the 50mm Coolermaster(rated at 37db) on there right now.[/url]

I just ordered a couple of deltas
I ordered from here: http://store.yahoo.com/coolbidnow/de60ulqucafa1.html
I'll get them some time this week, so I will let you know how they are. I'm not sure if the specs are right but the rpms were slower than other 60x10 fans I saw.

Thank you for unlocking this thread
Actually this post is about thin 10mm fans. Not all of us have the luxury of space, and the other thread is about 60mm threads in general. I cannot fit a 60x25, and if you search for 60x10 in these forums, you will see how little there is. That said, it is true that people tend not to search the forums before posting, and we should all get better at that. Thanks again for unlocking this thread. When I get my fans, I would like to post my results.
First of all I did do a search both for the Evercool and the Sunon. I think I found one post about the 60mm Sunon(although not that particular model) and nothing about the Evercool. I always search before posting otherwise I'd also be asking about 40mm fans.
Secondly, I stated in my very first sentence that I knew a 60mm fan couldn't be quiet. I was just asking which of those 2 were the quietest.
Thirdly, I saw that other post about 60mm fans but I felt that my question was different enough to warrant another thread.
