| Recommended Heatsinks from Silent PC Review CPU heatsinks are usually packaged and marketed with a fan, which explains the rise of the moniker HSF, heatsink fan. Most hardware web sites test the HSF as an integrated unit. For SPCR, this is not an ideal way to do things, mainly because almost all fans supplied with HS are too loud. If we had to test and use them in stock form, we would recommend less than 1% of all the HSF on the market.

| Needless to say the lower the voltage to the fan, the lower the RPM and lower the CFM = lower the noise level, in an orderly manner. Yes, no fan = no noise (from nothing)

how about some TECH data to back up that statement. In a case with 120mm rear exhaust I can tell you that Ninja gives better PWM temps than SI-120 when both use the same 120mm fan.
