OK, the YS Tech fan in my case's top blowhole is starting to go. It's making a pretty ferocious buzz. So I'm going on the hunt for some new 80mm fans. Any recommendations on something that's quiet and has tach-out on a 3-pin connector, and doesn't cost $10?

If anybody knows where to find 40x6mm quiet fans, I'd probably go for two of those to quiet down my Voodoo 5500.

I am not sure where you can find these fans, but this guy seems to have an idea:

Thanks...I've seen that page before. Unfortunately that won't work because my PCI bus is packed and I don't have the space for that tall fan. The stock fans are 40x6mm, I might be able to do 40x10mm, but I can't do anything taller than that.
