My 2 case fans are on the way out, either you can hear a rattle inside, or they go into a groan kinda noise.. They are 2 120mm Apevia fans (side one is an LED blue style, back one is a clear) they came with the case back in 2007/8?
-Apevia XJupiter Jr G case-
Not really sure what to replace them with that's not pricey, cools good, and isn't noticeably loud, I know just about nothing about case fans. and If I can find something at Bestbuy or am I going to have to order them off amazon or something else.

Padded corners for less vibration, lower RPM but still move plenty of air. Also includes a switch so you can set them at 600 or 1000 RPM.
Corsair AF120 $15 each or $30 for 2-pack. Comes in Quiet or High Performance edition
Noctua NF-F12 $28 each
this sure is a case
Not that unusual. Motherboards cannot be relied on to have lots of fan headers and they don't really take much out of a molex daisy chain power-wise.
