Ice Cap fans are nice.

I on the other hand just got a 12v converter from radio shack and bought 2 inexpensive computer fans and wired them up.

I just got two sharkoon silent eagle golf ball 120 fans by the suggestions of other threads. I have yet to plug them in, but I like the idea of being able to change the fan speed (and fan noise) with an adjustable 12v adapter.

The one I have is a 12v 1000mA converter from radio Shack.

It powers 2 12v computer fans. It converts 120v input (plugs into the wall) into 12v output (for the fans).

Vantec Stealths are quiet and dependable. The 120mm fan moves 53 cfm at 20dba. Double ball bearing so they are both quiet and dependable.

With a variable voltage adapter you can run them at 12 or 9 volts. At 12 they are really quiet and at 9 v they are pretty much completely silent. Make sure you get the right size for your canopy. The link is to the 120mm model.

You can hook multiple fans up to a single adapter. I think you can also get the fans for a little less from newegg.com.
