Thermaltake A2426 Blue LED PCI Slot Case Cooler

Comment:
Nice little fan. Can push some good air out of my case. LEDs are bright. Not at all loud. The part where you screw it down is cheap. I guess no big deal, but it's not fitting in straight. Leaves a gap at the bottom side of the slot. Nothing to hold down the bottom in my BX6 case. Thanks Ultra (sarcasm) Delivery was super fast!!!

I bought one of these to help move air between my SLI video card setup, in this capacity it performs well. But do not be fooled by photos into thinking there is an intake on both top and bottom, this fan's design only draws air in from the top, the bottom is totally sealed by clear plastic. My only complaint is a bit of a rattle possibly from the bearing, but thankfully it is not noticeable without physically trying to listen from the back of the tower.

This fan keeps my geforce 5700 le cool but could have been a longer slot fan to match the length of my graphics card. Other than that it is a very good fan with a nice blue led, and its brushless so should last you a long time.

I like having these things for putting around all the heat sources lower int the case. It's a single slot cooler for anything, and exhausts right out the back of the case.These are very handy to have on hand, and can compliment the cooling in any case. 4 stars because I really dislike a bunch of molex adaptors floating around inside cases. They just make a mess of cable management.

This fan is quite silent, has some cool LEDs, and is an effective cooler. Price is great also. Highly reccomended.

This fan I bought for fun as my system could always be a little cooler. I liked this fan as it's somewhat quiet and will exhaust the hot air from my 8800gt and the air being pushed by the spotcool fan in my case. Good innovation, but the air being pushed out of the case isn't significant enough for me to be in awe.

I was not expected a lot when i bought this fan. I did it to help making my BFG 8800GT temperature down. It made it drop by 5-10 degree C. Nice job, highly recommended.

I have this right next to my Visiontek HD 3850. It keeps the card a lot cooler, very quiet too.

bought this fan to install under my 8800GT, which are notorious for running very hot. This fan increases the airflow around my videocard's fan, and it actually helped to lower my GPU temps, though I have yet to measure the temp difference in more than an on-desktop scenario. this fan is a nice little choice for someone looking for get some airflow at the lower-back of their PC case.

Comment:
Very good placing it under video cards that doesn't exhaust heat out from back. Lower 5 to 15 degrees depending how good your case air flow.

This exhaust fan cooled my case 2 degres down. I have a BFG 8800GT. This didn't really help the card because the way the exhaust of the card is design just doesn't help. But this thing helps to cool your case. Noise and airflow are as specified.It just doesn't fit correctly in the PCI slot. I couldn't screw it in completly. But that's not a big problem.

I got this to exhaust out the extra heat my BFG 8800GT would produce. I noticed a couple degree drop by that because theres nothing cooling the bottom end of my mobo. This cooling is relatively quiet as with my whole case. The only real noise i can hear is my HD working when i run something. It didn't really fit my case entirely properly cause of a little extra metal it had on the entrance of the slot for the Cooler Master Centurion 5. Its kinda forced in and not properly placed but it looks fine and works normally. Overall, a good product.

Got this to help cool down my X2 4800+ (Before A2426 install: idle-36C, load-59C) and my XFX 8800GT (Before A2426 install: idle-56C, load-69C with card's fan speed set to 42%). Obviously very easy to install, runs quiet and does blow hot air out of the back of my Antec Sonata II case as you can feel the air being blown out. But was hoping that I could turn down the case fan from medium to low after this slot fan was installed. Found out that I really couldn't.Brought my 8800GT's temperature down about 2C and my CPU's temp about 2C as well. Not bad for a cheap fan.

Dropped my 8800gts 640mb card down 10-15 degrees and 5 degrees on load. Its also really quiet and looks nice inside my case.Great Slot fan that will work great right under a powerhouse video card. I can't find a weakness yet.

I bought two of these in order to exhaust hot air away from the front vents on my BFG 8800GTX OC, and also from around my Quad Core CPU. I was not expecting these to be all that great given their low price. I was definately surprised when i installed them as to how much air they move. The default speed without using any controller is 2200rpm, no speed switch is included. My temps on my video card went down 5 to 10degC (idle-load)!! and this is on an open case.. the fan fits right over the front slit vents on the 8800GTX just perfectly and helps push out the heat that is normally blown into the case area. My CPU temps also went down about 5degC, this may only help your cpu temps if you have a poorly ventilated case which does not have a rear exhaust fan near the cpu area, or if you have a low spinning PSU fan like a corsair HX620 which does a poor job at exhausting cpu heat. So far these dont make much noise either, as i was expecting somthing much lowder given the high rpm. One dissapointing thing is that while i bought two blue fans, one of them was aquagreen while the other was blue.. and both boxes said blue on them, so thats somthing to look out for. Also these only have molex connectors, it would have been nice to have 3pin or 4pin motherboard connectors or adaptors. Regardless of these flaws,, i would say this is one of the best slot exhaust fans I have ever seen.. definately not as loud as some of the antec ones i have used in the past,, and move just as much if not more air.
