The 20v 200 uses a 5(or is it 6?) blade fan, with blades that are more
curvy.  It's much quieter than the 5k fans, which used straight blades and
made a god-aweful racket.

Before you do the upgrade, make sure you're going to the 200q20v style and
not the 5k style; the newer design is more efficient and much quieter.
