They move way much more air that i had expected and to me at they aren't incredibly loud even though some may possibly disagree. some speak of the bearings going poor right after a year or so. Bought eight of these for radiators and whatnot in my case and i couldn't be happier with them.

Cons:none

Pros:great performance
Comment:
I got four of these and mounted them onto my Corsair H100 in push/pull... with the h100 set on low you can barely hear them, on medium there is a slight dull hum... yes these fans can get loud at full speed but they are still much quieter than the stock h100 fans and seem to do a much better job as well. Under load my FX-8120 runs ~50C at 4.5hgz on 8 threads on the medium fan speed.

Moves a LOT of air. Low price Really loud. It sounds like a hair dryer or vacuum cleaner. Following I altered my fan settings I was able to bring down the sound a small bit, but even at the lowest settings it is still the loudest case fan I have ever heard. I took it out of my case right after 1 day due to the fact I couldn't take the noise, and I haven't applied it because.

This is the most powerful 120MM fan I could find. It is not very noisy. The price is cheap. I am buying another soon.

These fans give good airflow but are louder than your typical case fan. They are a excellent match for a fan controller. They're a small loud, but not excessive. These fans gave off some weird new plastic smell for the very first few days of operation, which I assume even affected my tastebuds. (Gave a bitter aftertaste on almost everything I ate, and I'm positive it wasn't just my imagination)

Blows a lot of air. Loud. Died in couple of months. My brother referred to as me though it was burned and told me that my whole pc burned, due to the fact it smelled like it. It did not trigger the bios about the challenge until someone shut my computer down.

CFM is truly fantastic compared to the 1 I had prior to. Essentially I quickly turned off the pc couple of seconds right after I started it up. I had to be certain I attached the thing properly mainly because I was questioning exactly where the loud sound is coming from. Guess what? Absolutely nothing changed.Actually actually loud It's just like attaching a jet turbine to your pc. You get good airflow at the cost of being loud

-Moves LOTS of air-Low cost if purchased in bulk -Loud, but I don't thoughts because a cool computer is a lot more crucial to me than a quiet laptop.

These factors are stupid quickly and move air like you wouldnt believe. i have 4 side mounted and 2 in the back and 1 up front on my NZXT Zero2. they move so much air it even keeps my room cool lol.... NOT joking. They are loud but i dont really care bc you know this already just before you obtain them i really bump my overclock a couple notches immediately after upgrading to these.

Moves a ton of air. If you require air moved and lots of it, get this. I purchased six of these over a year ago and each single 1 of them nonetheless works, as opposed to most of the other fans I bought at the time. Loud. Incredibly Loud. I've given that replaced one of these with a Silenx. It doesn't move as significantly air, but I no longer cringe and wonder who's employing a lawn mower in my room when I turn on my computer. If your personal computer is kept in a sound stage in the other room, this is for you.

-this fan series is properly rated and has the distinction of pushing a high level of air at a given noise level-scythe good quality is very high and I've never ever had a problem none... good product if you connect this thing up to max volts direct from the power supply with no regulation it runs at 110CFM and 40+db which is loud.... ideally you must use it with some kind of regulation or on a motherboard header where you can control it's speed... the ideal use for this one is as a CPU cooler fan so the MB can turn on big CFM when required, but operate at a very reasonable noise level when not.

These suckers are low cost and get the job accomplished when they're working. Loud, loud, loud. I had to get a fan controller to tame these beasts. But alas, each have died on me inside a week of each other. Going to devote the coin to get a couple of GTs. Save oneself time and cash in the long run by just spending the dollars up front for the GTs. Could have spent ำ up front for a couple of GTs but instead opted for two of these and a fan controller which ends up at about the same price.

Significantly Quieter, Moves a lot of air. Not as potent as previous fan. Does not believe it's 110CFM but it nonetheless is a great somewhat very fan.

Actually keeps the hardware cool. I got five of them 1 to replace the back case fan and 4 for the side fans on my NZXT case! A economical option to a full water cooling method. Nonetheless not as efficient as a water cooling system 1 day I will invest money for a water cooling method

Seriously cheap when it's discounted with free of charge shipping. Created by a reputable corporation. Makes a high pitched whirring noise even on lowest fan controller setting about 1400 rpm. I can hear it over my Tri-cools on max. high pitched fans are more annoying than louder low pitched fans. But these things could not be consistently created so i don't know. I did the WD40 lube and all, too. Possibly they shouldn't be behind filters or mesh either. Noise is muffled if I put a air filter in front of the intake mesh, but I'm certain it's killing the CFM.

As other have stated, it moves a lot of air. I bought 2 of these, 1 for the rear of the case and 1 for the CPU. The idle temps on my CPU went from 41c to 34c. Like I mentioned in the Pros section, it is really loud. I knew that the fans had been not quiet when I bought them if they would be running at full RPM, but I figured that since I was connecting them to my AC Touch 2000 fan controller it would not be so poor. I have the CPU fan running at 1500 rpm and the rear fan at 1100 rpm, still fairly loud. They are installed in a TT V4 case which has a lot of ventilation, so I figure that might also contribute to the loudness. All in all, I would suggest this fan.

The LEDs function just as they are supposed to. red for 7 volts and below and blue for when you push them to 12 volts.The remaining ports work just as they are supposed to as well. Upon arrival port number two was dead so I can\'t use it. It lights up but no power flows through it, I tested it with fans that worked but still got nothing. I had to just plug 1 of the 4 120mm fans i was going to use on it into a typical molex connector. Becoming the other three ports work (for now) I only took off one egg. wish all 4 ports were working.
