    Works well, but no too fast

    posted by LucasSantiagoo on 01/24/2013 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    Works well and it's silent enough for me. Combined with a grill it enhances the cpu performance.
    Cons:
    It's not as fast as I imagine. The amount of air that produces is less than my old 8cm fan. Also I find quite difficult to inst...

    Cheap fan does what it should!

    posted by Jeff2488 on 11/21/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month

    Pros:
    I needed a cheap fan for a side project. Preferably big. This one is exactly that. No wobble so far.
    Cons:
    Because it is quite a big fan, it could do with less rpm. Now I can make it go slower by sodding some resistance into it, but i...

    Good and silent fan for a great price

    posted by roestig on 09/05/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Nice and simple fan. Easy to install with moldex connector. And best off all, it cools well. For this price it is just great. And it is pretty quiet, wich is important if you want to mount the fan in an htpc for example/
    Cons:
    The only thing i could think of is that it comes with only 2 screws to mount the fan to the chassis. But with 2 it is also fir...

    Really nice fan but cable too short

    posted by krogsgaard20 on 07/12/2012 Certified Owner

    Involvement:Expert (understands the inner workings) - Ownership:1 day to 1 week

    Pros:
    Really nice fan. Looks great, pretty discrete look. Build quality is more solid than my expensive branded fans, and it also moves more air than my expensive ones. The screw holes are a little bit bigger than usual, which makes it easier to mount the screws...
    Cons:
    Only 2 screws included in the package. Would be great with 4. Cable is way too short, it is only like 15 cm, so I had to cut i...

    Great replacement for power supply fan

    posted by Baldierov on 06/14/2011 Certified Owner

    Pros:
    * Seem to have a nice solid build to them * Fairly quiet * Fit perfectly in the power supplies I have * Have used one for 1.5 years with no problems. * Very good price - 1/3 of what local stores charge for similar quality
    Cons:
    * Not as quiet as the original power supply fan * May not move as much as air as needed

    Cons:
