AzenX Blitztorm BT-SC70BBL Red LED PCI Slot Case Cooler

Comment:
This is the second pci slot fan I've attempted and it seems to be a excellent solution. This fan runs incredibly quiet except at highest RPM and is the only one particular I discovered with basically an off or idle setting where you hear practically nothing but the original computer case fan. The twist knob rheostat control enables you to adjust fan speed (and nooise level) extremely quickly. The GPU temp on my 8600 GT dropped from 52C to 48C at idle and from 72C to 62C when operating a full out racing game! The tilting/reversable rear fan is a good feature and the exhaust flow is noticeable. The plastic tabs on the bottom of the fan case are created to match pci/pcie 16 slots only. My greatest fit was a pcie 4 slot so (like others have noted) I just snipped about 1ǚ" off the tab and it match just fine. The integrated LED is blue and not red but who cares. NewEgg to me has the best web site format going with excellent information such as tech specs and evaluations. Delivery was wonderful. I ordered from Maine on Thursday afternoon and UPS delivered the fan from California Monday afternoon.

High CFM in a smaller kind aspect...at least the blower is.Good casing, not ugly in a windowed case, IMO.Speed manage.Blower is comparatively quiet on any setting. Fan started vibrating in less than a year, had to take it out and just left the blower. The blower performs completely.Fan isn't quite up to par compared to the blower, the blower is the much better piece, when the fan really worked that is. Not a bad fan/blower if you want reduce temps, blower works really properly, but fan is a bit lacking, specifically due to the fact it gave up in significantly less than a year.

Moves a lot of air! The variable speed control is a plus. I like the positionable fan unit. It has click-stops to anchor it in position. Mine is angled 1 click off center, supplying air on both the GPU and memory sticks. Utilizing a temperature monitoring pgm. you can tweak both position and rpms for optimum cooling. The blue LED happens to match my other blue fans. The PWR connecter is double ended, so you can insert it in-line to a different device with out be concerned of not getting sufficient power taps readily available. Quiet when running on low but, absolutely noticable when cranked up! Not an challenge if you are the sort hunting for max. cooling more than ambient noise. Based upon your MOBO's slot spacings, it could be a tight fit near other cards. My SLI MOBO has a lot of space for it. Single blue LED is a feeble attempt to illuminate a large unit like this-- it desires at least two for even illumination (if your Pc is a showpiece!!) The tiny speed handle is mounted extremely high up on the panel and calls for your fingertips to rotate it -- but then you can also use a tweeker screwdriver on it if your fingers are like bratwurst!

It genuinely blows alot of air. i bought this result in my case was receiving so hot and this cooled it down alot lead to my videocard was generating alot of excess heat. None seriously

-adjustable fan speed-fan speeds are not preset. e.g. you can adjust the dial at any rate preferred for the excellent speed.-360 degree fan rotation-pushes out a surprisingly large volume of air at the reduce settings when nonetheless maintaining quiet-drops temps a few degrees depending on case size, number of components, and other fans' placement -not extended adequate for my situation but nevertheless does the job-incredibly loud at greater settings there aren't genuinely numerous good pci exhaust fans on the market and i was pleased to uncover this 1 right here.I purchased it for the sole goal of assisting bring down my 4870's VRM (voltage regulators) temps. Its placement isn't directly underneath the VRM's but it still does assist bring the idle temp down a handful of degrees and also assists keep the card operating steady for the duration of heavy load sessions.VRM overheating normally benefits in the dreaded "black screen of death". This commonly happens after the VRM's exceed 150 Celsius (the card i bough was defective but i was in a position to set up a nice thermalright heatsink along with 2 120mm fans to maintain it steady. yes its a beast now lol!).As far as the CPU and motherboard temps go- they're nonetheless about the identical but I do have a large case so its not surprising. Im positive if you own a smaller to mid size case you may be able to drop your temps a couple degrees at the correct fan speed setting.

Low noise. Performs effectively, without any problem. Blue LED.. I do not need that. The "tilt" is attainable only if you have also a lot area among PCI slots. The exhaust is not that great, but it creates sufficient turbulence to develop a cooling impact. I use this to cool a video card with a broken heatsink.

LED light is blue not red.Stickers took care of them selves right after two days use found them in the bottom of the case blown off.Adjustable speed on back can reduce noise at idle. Keeps my beast GTX 470 good and cool, you can really feel the heat kick out of the back of the case with the exhaust. Had to be modified to fit in the PCI slot. You would assume one who made the card would of test match it 1st. The rotable fan is nice but sitting in in between my GPU and sound card not really area to turn it any other way than up or down. I have it blowing up into my GPU and seems to be pulling heat out of the back seriously nicely.

Thin and will fit amongst 2 graphics cards in SLI or CrossFire. I have 1 GTX 285 and it brings down the temperature by 10C at max speed. It blows a lot hot air out when my 2 120mm 1500rpm fans blow cool air.The blue LED is bright. It's 1 even though. I believed the complete point would glow, but still looks nice with just 1 bright spot. Max speed is loud, but I don't truly hear it whilst playing games. Just turn it down till you can't hear it anymore if it bothers you. The controller is great. The LED is blue. Not red like the title on Newegg. I have it below my graphics card with the adjustable fan blowing into my GTX 285's fan. Just purchase it already :-p

Functions excellent. Operates as an exhaust fan plus as a directional fan. You can point it in an region to cool and lots of air flows. Grated its an help to overall very good airflow but it was easy fits in an PCI slot (it is just a plastic tab) and isnt as well huge. Plus its adjustable fan speed. I guess there is no true way to tell RPM through bios or win system but I like it the way it is anyways. Just get it and it will function for you. Simple.

Comment:
Back fan swivels 360 degrees so you can channel air either way from cardpushes heat out back of case none Have owned a single of these for two years no challenges just purchased a different they operate good.

it cools stuff. adjustable fan. doesnt use the fan power ports like other folks doesnt fit into certian pci slots. covers up a fan plugin on my motherboard. covers two sata ports on my mobo. couldnt match my video card under it. its pretty fantastic although, i dont regret getting it. I have Speedfan and it is showing a very good 4-5 degree drop in nearly almost everything since installation.

It gets the job completed, helped to bring down vid. card temps. My card is a Asus N7600GS Silent, no fan, passive heat sink, so it will get hot. But just a single point...see beneath. The way the cooling fan is set up, it is blowing air down, in other words not directly at the vid card. My card was running @ 57 dg. C, so I opened the case side and took a smoke & checked the direction of air flow. It was blowing air towards the bottom of the case, rather of at the heat sink on the VGA. Turned off my machine, pulled the cooler & rotated the fan 180 dg. My VGA now runs @ 51 dg. under load. If your VGA mounts above the PCI slots, which most do, check which way the fan is blowing. The notches for adjustment don't perform really effectively when you ought to 180 the fan. But it's giving me just adequate angle to do the job. Azenx ought to mount the cooling fan so it will blow up, not down. I looked to see if I could remove the fan mounting assembly, but it seems you can't. I'm not going to take an egg away from the rating for this. But just be conscious so your not disapionted.

Adjustable fan speed.Quiet unit, unless on full blast, which you'll really only will need for heavy gaming sessions exactly where your sound will be cranked adequate to drown it out anyway. Blue LED light looks cool. Really pumps out the hot air from your case even on a moderate fan speed setting.Uncomplicated install.Fan rotates, but because your GPU is the hottest element in the situation it's unlikely you'll require to use this function that much. Requires up a PCI slot but for most this isn't a major deal. My GPU is normally 3-5 degrees cooler with this unit running, and it keeps my card around 60 degrees C with the fan on medium-higher whereas before it hovered about 68. Worth the price tag in my opinion.

Low-cost and it functions. My major rig has been cutting off when my 2nd gc heated up to 117C following about two hours with no major load. Even though it is a tight match, and I had to juryrig the installation, this unit dropped my 2nd card temps by 60C - that is 140 degress in old cash. I am a joyful man..... One card is chillin at 50C and that overheating 2nd card is chillin at 57C. And this is with the fan only at half speed (it tends to make a little noise at complete speed). It you have a graphics card heating challenge and you can fit this unit in, go for it............... Tight fit for me. I have a mini-tower. I had three fans operating on my situation (not counting the PS) prior to I added this fan to the inside.............I have 3 monitors ƒ 22"s, 1 24") and a 40" HD tv operating on the two cards-hence the heating concerns............

I got this to retain the location around my 8800gt cool. Ahead of I got this, the video card would heat the complete situation up, raising my processor temp ᡹ degrees. Soon after installing this, it let my processor go back down to 55 degrees, and lowered my card's temp by 7 degrees. Really quiet The max fan speed is fairly loud. Not genuinely a con because the turning it down a bit keeps just about the very same amount of airflow while generating a lot significantly less noise Only goes in a PCI/PCIE x16 slot.

Cuts down my Nvidia 8800 GT temp signiciantly. I recommend this item to any individual I know who has sunk income into a nice GFX card. I maintain this at 100% at all times (better for fan life to be kept at a consistent voltage). You can genuinely really feel the air blast out of the exhaust and the adjustable fan enables me to shoot air appropriate at my GFX card. Bottom line, this thing does that job and at a incredibly modest price. A tiny noisy (past 60% load) and a little difficult to completely clean. For my setup (ATX midsize) there is no far better remedy for maintaining my GFX card cool.

Cools my BFG 8800GT OC2 ten*C reduce than devoid of it on only half power. Can't even hear it with my three-120MM fans turning. At max energy it is nonetheless bearable place I didn't see any cooling benefit from that. The capacity to pivot the fan is a huge plus. Is a small massive, which is a fantastic factor, had to unhook my front audio but it didnt work anyway. I use an MSI 750a SLi board. Great obtain for anybody seeking to maintain their older card cooler, or for everyone who wants to maintain their card cooler. I extremely suggest this cooler to anybody who likes their machine to run cool.

Comment:
these who rate this two or decrease....get a new case and don't be low cost! this factor does a good job at assisting keep my 3870's temp down. about a ten degree C diffrence with no having it. Adjustable second fan! wonderful. Once more those who have troubles have low cost circumstances and don't know what they are performing. What did they count on for less than 20 bucks.. Liquid cooling? none

Comment:
Good addition for the price tag. Described as RED, picture shows blue, item IS BLUE.

Comment:
I place this on my MSI X58 motherboard to cool the IOH chipset and on medium fan speed setting have cooled it an common of 8 C. It's precisely what I was searching for. As an added bonus, my method temp went down a lot as well. On the highest fan setting it's kinda loud. Also note that the LED is blue and not red. I knew ahead of I ordered due to the fact of the evaluations and wanted to pass that along. I recommend this for these that have an MSI X58 motherboard, like me, to cool the IOH chip. It's the cheapest strategy I've identified to counter this dilemma. Nevertheless, It does take up a PCIe slot, so be ready for that.

My Mac kept more than heating and crashed consistently immediately after installing a new video card. The card got so hot you could fry an egg on it. I bought this cooler from Newegg and now it keeps my graphics card cool. It's quiet on the high setting that I don't even discover it operating. This is low-cost and took care of my heating problems. I have an expensive graphics card that works now thanks to this great item! None Thanks Newegg and Auzen!

Comment:
-works just fine lowered my radeon 6970 by 5c does not seem like substantially but it is for me without possessing to worry about it melting rofl-straightforward installation none actually

Blows cold air on the card, second rear fan exhusts air out. not enough bling! small led is boring and the blue is not uv reactive adequate! Best GPU cooler for dual slot cards with exhust vents the 8800 series.A excellent cooler for any gpu where heat builds up below the card. A ŭ slot fan will help but this infant is worth the extram income! Warpedsystems dot com for details

Comment:
-Adjustable speed from dial on the back of the card-Not also loud-Keeps my 480 GTX cool-Multi-directional fan and exhaust fan-Properly built -None, I'm particularly satisfied with this item

Comment:
incredible. in a situation with a single fan, my hd 4650 has nevertheless to break 40C below load. thats wonderful. with the one omnidirectional fan blowing air all about, and the adjustable fan blowing on the graphics card, it cools anything great. i'm telling all my pals about this point. fan can get really loud when its maxed out. the location of the fan speed knob created it kinda tricky to get in my case. a quite fine product. i was reluctant to get the situation i did, but with the addition of this, i couldnt be happier. the high quality of the product along with the reliability and comfort of newegg's industry and shipping has truly made this construct stress cost-free.
