Cooling Fans for T5's

[racefan]

I have a Nova Extreme SLR 36" T5. The fans are really noisy, they are 40mm x 28mm. Where is a good place to get this size fan? Computer stores do not seem to carry them from what I can find.

I've bought many computer fans from two online sources:

1. Mwave.com
2. Newegg.com

Both great stores.

Good luck on your search. I had a Current Orbit fixture for a previous FOWLR tank, but the fans eventually rattled and drove me crazy. I'll never buy another Current USA fixture for fear of the noisy fans. I noticed that Current sells their fans as a replacement part, which really says something to me about the fan quality. I suggest finding a fan with a good reputation, like a Vantec Stealth or similar.

Part of my problem is I'm not really sure of what is good for a light fixture as far as the balance of CFM vs dBA's go.
