    Default 120 x 38mm fans

    I'd love for you to stock these, as it's hard to find anywhere decent that stocks them, and they excel on coolers such as the Thermalright Venomous X. (And as you know, you're the only one in the UK to stock them. )

    I'd opt in on this too! Open corner 38mm deep fans are awesome to sandwich rads together with.

    Or consider a 38mm fan and a fan shroud instead.

    That's what I have on my TRUE currently.

    I just used an old 120 x 25mm fan, and it dropped my temperatures by around 3C, and it made my fan quieter, too.

    Can't see much demand for this kind of stuff, wouldn't make sense for Aria to stock them IMHO.

    I'm not so sure.

    If Aria stocked decent 38mm thick fans at a solid price, and the users were made aware of their superior performance, I'm sure they could sell very, very well.

    I'd buy 38mm deep fans if anywhere reliable stocked them, definitely. Even more so if the fans were made by a decent manufacturer, I wouldn't be buying any crap for a fiver.

    Scythe and Delta are the main manufacturers of this size fan though, and yeah, they're good brands but.. They're mainly aimed at the 50dba range :\

    I had a scythe on my TRUE, I think it's a kaze ultra or something. really good when on my TRUE but I went for 2x Noctuas instead as the 38mm one was a bit noisy. Gathering dust along with a few others now lol.

    If they were quieter then I would deffo be interested in them.

    I use them all the time. Best one you guys need is the San Ace 9G1212H1011. Best fan for under volting (no annoying clicking like the Kaze fans), and just produce a lot of CFM. I use them on my WC Rads and heatsinks. Been using one for the CPU Cooler review im posting tomorrow.

    The problem with that fan is stock levels. Their increadably hard to get in the UK. There is only one retailer that do them but is now out of stock and won't be getting them in till May sometime. I'll see if we can get this model in only.

    I've had a problem with my side-panel fan on my 902 being blocked by my Xiggy Dark Knight Cooler on my new build. Is there any fans with lower profile's than the standard 120mm fan? Short of trimming the corner off the fan I don't see it going on with the side-panel attached.
    Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand.

    Yes, there are 12mm thick 120mm fans available. A quick search on Google should find a UK supplier.
