Thermaltake A2426 Blue LED PCI Slot Case Cooler

Comment:
It moves air effectively, it has two vibrant blue led's, it fits nice into a pci slot my case has that my motherboard is unable to use, and it appears to be really silent. It does seems a small flimsy when becoming installed, but I would say for the cost you can only count on so considerably.

Comment:
This small cheap fan looks great in my case and gives a little extra light on the bottom. I didn't check but I think my card is 2degrees cooler. Not bad.

Comment:
Quiet, efficient, fits in tight places, built to final Only two LEDs so its not as bright as you would want it Does what it wants to do in a orderly fashion

Comment:
Smaller and quieter than other slot fans, great for a small mini itx case (compare much a lot more potent, solidly built AOC model which moves double the air but is high rpm on the bearings and significantly louder). I know it's cheesy, but I really like the blue led glow... I'd like to believe it would go out if the fan stopped turning, but absolutely nothing in the packaging implies it is anything other than cosmetic. Bracket is simply reversible. Bracket is looser (has some instability) than other models. No motherboard case fan connector with speed sensor, just hardwired molex extender.

Works perfectly, Blue LED's are cool, I can't even hear it when it's running None

Comment:
two vivid led lights,runs silent,wonderful air movement,not bulky at all. exactly where the plastic attaches to the metal mounts is loose and it wiggles a little.

Excellent cooling! None I got this to support exhaust some heat from an adaptec 5405 raid controller. with out this issue operating the controller got about 80C. I took the side off of the machine and placed a 120MM fan hitting the card. It then stayed at 52C. I installed this fan and closed up the case and now it (raid processor) stays at 52C !!! For ů that is unbeatable. I can feel the heat it is exhausting, this product certainly outperforms my expectations.

Comment:
I can feel the heat being pushed out the vents. That tells me it functions. It looks nice in my case. none I put mine on a rocker switch. Good to bring down the temps when the space gets also warm.

Comment:
Nicely created, feels solid louder than expected. I have a quiet Computer and adding this fan produced the machine various instances louder than even the stock intel fan for the Q6600 cpu

Comment:
Nice quiet fan, specifically what I necessary. None at all. I purchased this to add extra ventilation and wanted one thing whisper quiet and it is just that; whisper quiet! The CPU fan is louder than this fan.

Comment:
It moves air so it keeps points a little cooler. It also lights up so it provides you case some pizazz It doesn't move as significantly air as some people would like and it only has in intake on one particular side so depending how you have your cards spaced it could not pull air from the proper spot. Also, it is essentially a 80mm fan with a different mounting chassis on it. If you are seeking for critical airflow, get one thing else.

Does a very good job of exhausting the hot air from the video card in the Pc it went into, and it looks nice carrying out it. Thermaltake high quality so you don't have to worry (as much) about the fan crapping out on you within a couple months. A bit noisy; read other thoughts. I could hear this fan clearly over all the other people in my Pc, such as the fan on the taller-sized stock Core two Duo cooler.To fix it, I just put a 25 ohm, two watt resistor in-line with the power wire, like this: =====--|||||||||--=====That lowers the voltage to 9 volts rather of 12: difficulty solved. 1 could constantly use a 20 ohm for less speed reduction or a 30 ohm for additional, etc. Just make positive the resistor can manage at least 1w of power.

Comment:
Remarkable cooling potential. Lowered the ambient temp of the Pc by over 5 celcius. Looks excellent too! None Would get one more soon if i needed one!

Comment:
Nice design drops GPU temp a few degrees,ang gets some hot air out of the case.Looks superior and does its job. none

Comment:
Good DesignGood Blue ledUse a Fan with Fan blades rather of the standard ''hamster wheel''Really Silent. Only Molex connector.Cable is kinda short.Over Unit is flimsy and does move a lot even when its installed in the case.Take about 5 minutes to spin to its maximum speed and cfm. Overall its a nice fan, it does push 22 cfm but it take time to start off up, also they employed a fan with unique blades rather of the ''hamster wheel'' so it doesn't develop into dust clogged following 2 weeks.

Affordable Low-cost, Says 21db could clearly hear it more than my case fans rated at 24db. CAUGHT ON FIRE!!! (see other thoughts) Turned on my Pc 1 morning, and smoke began pouring out of my case. The plastic on the wires burned/melted off. Worked good for a month, i didnt touch the inside of my Pc since i installed them, just randomly happened. (owned two, 1 burned, trashed both)

Comment:
I truly purchased this card to cool my northbridge, and its doing a pretty great job. The Blue LED lights are good but not extremely bright.

Comment:
looks good, gets hot air out of the case, (see other thoughts about airflow) I bought this with the aim to have my GPU fan blow into this one, moving that hot air out speedily. It lowered temps by roughly 4C. I will be acquiring a second to use for my CPU. Oh yea, not to pricey! not genuinely a con, but I would prefer it to stick out further in to the case, but that is because i would like my fans to line up, . There have been critiques about lack of airflow pushed by this. One more reviewer already stated this, but this can not be stated enough as it is a underlying principle in fan cooling theory; intake = outake! The amount of air your case lets in will be the similar as that that moves out. so bad intake will cause this fan to "not push substantially air" it will cause an airflow bottleneck and wear out your fans quicker, as they will chug harder to move the air.

I spent a long time attempting to find 2 PCI-based fans that I could install to assist cool my two 8800GTS SLI cards. I wanted to mount them so that they drew air across the back of the card and out the back of the case. No existing fan seemed to offer this. I ordered these mainly because I believed that they were reversed (it turns out the picture was misleading given that the case is transparent). Nevertheless, I was pleasantly surprised to find that I could very Carefully separate the fan from the PCI slot mount and reverse it! Now I have specifically what I wanted AND two far more blue LEDs in my case. With these as exhaust and a side window fan as input, I've cut five-7 degrees off of my GPU temperatures. None so far. Really nice item for what I want it to do. Thermaltake when again gets my organization.

cools down temps.blue LED.uncomplicated installation. took it out of the package and it seemed flimsy to me, it was rather inexpensive which would clarify it but i bought it for my xfx 8800gt 640񳍜 card to aid cool the temps down on that baby. its pretty superior, its worth getting if you want to cool your high end card down a couple of degrees and its dirt affordable.

Blows air away from graphics cardsLights up blue not as strong of a fan as I thought it would be I wasn't expecting it to be a whirlwind but a little much more airflow would've been nice

Comment:
It moves hot air out of your laptop or computer. It doesn't make you toast.

Comment:
possibly low cost and has LED. The Fan's shape is diverse from the one in the picture. The actual thing doesn't have a groove on the side creating it impossible to fit on some situations in particular ones with clamp-on pci cardholders. The fan must be an intake rather than exhaust due to the reality that gpu fan doesn't basically blow the heat from heatsink, rather it sucks the air suitable in to the heasink and exits to the back end of the card. putting it underneath your graphics card only deprives it of air. It *should* supply air into the gpu fan instead.

Does what a fan is supposed to do..move air. Significantly superior high quality than comparable items provided on the egg. Cooled my Lian Li ITX case by 12C and processor temp dropped 8-9C. Blue lights are not extremely bright. Several mounting arrangements. Louder than the 21 decibel rating, but could be my case. I wish it was a 15-18 decibel fan. I was going for a silent rig but load temps of 58-60C produced me think twice.

Comment:
Silent, its affordable. does its job doesnt appear like its pushing 22 cfm its quiet and affordable for the cost it is defintiely worth it
