Dunno mate I just have a box full - I know there's some 800/900s in there but there's very little audible difference but better cooling by the "1300/1400" I was using. 1400 was just what the RPM-meter told me.

A box full of Noctuas? Wanna send me some :D too bad I live in America :(

And here are the pics of the two fans - the first one has low low static pressure and sucks at blowing through fins and radiators and such, and the second one has the new design which is optimized for HSF and watercooling use.

Older, lower-pressure, not-for-heatsinks fan

New, high static pressure designed for heatsinks

Sorry if I seem obsessed, I like knowing what happens in reviews... and I'm something of a Noctua fanboy :)

Yup, that's the only problem, but it doesn't move at all, only if you move it. ;)
