kiwi@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 02/07/05	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:- not that stealth Pros:-good airflow-120mm-good price Comment: As second fan it does the job providing excellent airflow and reducing temp. Could be a little more quiet but can't complain since it does the job.
rubinov@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 01/02/05	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:not as quiet as I was expecting Pros:QuietPushes a fair amount of air Comment: I just got the Antec3700bqe case and this fan is louder than the one that came with the case, however I believe it also pushes more air. With the power reduced to about half the fan doesn't add any noise to the computer and still pushes a decent amount of air. This being my first ever use of a 120mm fan I can't really compare it to any other 120mm fans. Over all I'm happy with the purchase would buy it again in the future.
Barret_D@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/21/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:- colour ain't the greatest Pros:+ quiet (those who say its too loud are expecting too much, its gotta make some noise)+ simple straight forward fan. Comment: At the end of the day this is just a basic quiet 120mm fan and it does the job.I'm very happy with my purchase and got what I expected.
scott_m@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/18/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:NOt really SILENT Pros:Yes, it is quietPushes good amount of airCheap! Comment: This is a great fan, and pawns the loud stock 120mm in my Antec 3700AMB
Madness@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/18/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:none Pros:-pushes a good amount of air-quiet-cheaper than the others Comment: -I use this fas as the 2nd fan in a Antec Sonota Case.-Doesn't make the case any louder than it already is..-Pushes a good amount of air
Garak@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/13/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Airflow/noise level ratio not the best Pros:BigGood airflowQuiet Comment: Vantec makes pretty good fans, in both quiet and really loud varieties. This is a quiet one, but with decent airflow. 120mm fans are great for that because they can run at low speeds and still provide decent airflow.
Raftus@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/04/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:none! Pros:Actually quietGreat airflowExcellent price Comment: This fan is great. It pushed far more air than the stock Sonata case fan and was more quiet. No complaints here. Ill be buying more.
3ntity@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 12/02/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Weak airflow Pros:Quiet120mm Comment: Great fan, has very little airflow but for the quietness it is perfect for people that do not overclock/need huge amount of airflow.If i were to buy another 120mm though, I would get something with more power.
Danosoft@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 11/30/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Not as "Stealthy" that it claimed. Pros:Steath? What Stealth? Comment: Well 28 DB isn't that quiet for a fan... Anyway It cools and thats what counts. I'm not sure if I would buy another but its a lesson learned.
purpledonkey@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/28/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:none Pros:Moves a lot of air Comment: Dropped the avg temps in my case by 8 degrees. (Okay, well it is much colder in the room and this fan is serving as the intake, so likely just pulling colder air in)Oh well I think it's worth it
Anubis@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/26/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Pushes less air Pros:Very Quiet Comment: This a very good Case fan because they are so quiet. My computer needed a replacement case fan and now it is silent
Jason_K@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/26/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:-Whining Fan Motor Noise-Expensive even at $12 Pros:-Comes with 3 to 4 pin power adaptor-Long power cable Comment: I bought a few of these and found the fan motors make an annoying whining noise. I ended up having to hook up a Zalman Fan Mate fan speed controller to them to stop the whining noise. I would of been better off buying the cheaper 120mm Thermaltake fan and using a fan speed controller with them, they don't have the whining noise, all you get is air noise with them although you need a fan speed controller with them since at stock speed the air noise is significant.
Unregistered@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/09/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:-not the most silent fan out there-a bit of rapid clicking noise when spinning Pros:-pushes quite a bit of air-120mm-includes 3-4 pin adapter-includes screws-has fan monitor Comment: although this thing is called vantec STEALTH, many people complained that it's not stealthy at all. and no, it's not stealthy, but it's not a jet engine at least. i think most people complain about this thing being noisy because it contradicts with its name. so if this thing wasn't called "stealth" in the first place, people's opinions may change. it's not the noisiest fan out there, but i still recommend getting some fan controllers to go with this.
Drugged@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/05/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:-Only pushes 53cfm Pros:-Pushes a decent amount of air-Pretty silent Comment: I got this fan to go into my Thermaltake Tsunami case and replace the one that came with it as it was fairly noisey. After switching fans I didn't notice any diffrence really and the Stealth only pushes 53cfm and my other Thermaltake one pushes 78cfm. I put back the Thermaltake and I'm now gonna use the Stealth with a 120mm blowhole that I'm gonna cut out the top of my case. When I put it in I'll update and let ya'll kinow how much my temps dropped. Overall this is a good buy for those that want a quiet fan that pushes a decent amount of air. If noise isn't a issue buy a 103cfm Panaflo.
Jim_W@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 10/01/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:could be quieter Pros:moves a lot of airfairly quiet Comment: Nice fan, sucks all the air outta my case and blows it out, which is what its there for. Slightly less noisy than other 120 mm fans I've heard.
Suicidal Samurai@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/19/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Not all that quietStill kinda pricy Pros:Push a lot of airCheapest of the 120mm when i got it3-4 pin adapter Comment: This is a good solid fan for anyone with a newer case that sports 120mm spots. Hopefully once the demand goes up a bit there will be more 120mm fans out there, and prices should drop. Would be cool to see one of these with led's, or maybe even uv reactive.
Spyder187@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/16/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Makes a low grinding noise with higher rpms Pros:Works well as a fan Comment: To sum it up, these aren't the case fan that you'd want to buy if you are seriously looking for quiet ones. They do make a low grinding noise even when run at lower speeds(even at lower speeds this is much less noticeable) and this can get really irritating sometimes.Maybe I got a bad one as most reviews seem to state that the fan is quiet...EDIT: May not be the best but I'll give it 3 stars.

LeoTo02@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/13/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:>Why does it cost nearly $22? Pros:>Fits into Antec SLK3700BQE's narrow hard drive cage area. Measurements are: 120 x 120 x 25mm>Lead length is long enough to connect to the mobo's furthest connection (from back of full size tower case to the part of the mobo closest to CD-R/W & DVD player).>It's quieter than my Antec SLK3700BQE's power supply fan.>Kit includes 3-4 pin power adapter & 4 mounting screws>Comes with a lifetime warranty (keep the box for proof of warranty, otherwise only a 3 year warranty! See http://www.vantecusa.com/warranty.html) Comment: I use this as my exhaust fan due to its 3 pin header (the SLK3700BQE's stock fan is a 4 pin) that is controlled by my Asus P4P800e-Deluxe's temperature sensors.Specs (which are missing from this site) are:12v, 0.96W.
povmec@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/04/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Loud at anything above low speed Pros:Quiet at low speed Comment: I have an Antec P160 case, an Antec 480W Truepower and a P4C800-E DLX. I wanted an extra fan at the front of the case to maximize cooling efficiency.I have the Q-Fan feature enabled in the BIOS, setting is lowest RPM since I favor quietness (I don't overclock, yet). First time I installed this fan, I connected it to the motherboard CHA_FAN, and it was LOUD. Very LOUD. I just couldn't believe they named this fan stealthy. Remove it from the case, and felt fooled.Two weeks later, I decide to give another try to see what's really going on. Same result, and I don't see what I can do... But then just for the sake of it I decide to plug it to my Antec PSU's "Fan only" connector: it was quiet now! I think the PSU delivers a lower voltage to the fans compared to the motherboard dedicated fan connectors.Conclusion, this fan is quiet only and only if it's used at low RPM, otherwise and it's just way too LOUD, above normal.
AsianInvasion@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/01/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:none Pros:Quiet enough to be not noisey :\| Comment: i have this mounted on my window on the top of my tower. its basic funtion is to stuck the hot air that rises out! and heck it blows air really really good!i highly recommend this fan for that purpose
polar man@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 09/01/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:does not work on a regular fan connector. Pros:large air flow Comment: I used this fan on a top blow hole for my case. I have found it to produce nearly a 5C temperature difference for me. I have not found the noise level to be too high my cpu fan drowns out the noise from this one. My major complaint though was that I was not able to have this fan run off a dedicated fan connector from my psu. I therefore had to use a regular molex connector on my psu rail.
Maranello_575@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/25/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:A bit expensive. Pros:Very quiet, moves quite a bit of air also. Comment: This fan is great. I have it in my Antec Sonata as a second fan. It's running at full speed and is very quiet. Helped to lower my overall system temp to 33° from 38º. It's also good quality, which probably explains its price tag. Highly recommend this product for those who want to cool more efficiently, while maintaining quietness at the same time.
Dante_S@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/24/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:-Not LED Pros:-Quiet-Keeps system cool-Good price Comment: Fan does exactly what its suppose to.Keeps my system temps below 35 and is whisper silent.The only thing I can hear with this fan in my case is the PSU fan.
Darcy_G@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/20/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:Not silent, but pretty close for a 120MM fan Pros:QuietMoves a tonne of airRPM monitoringPrice, if you get them on sale Comment: I picked two of these fans up to include into my Antec 3700 case. They installed in a few seconds and began to lower my case temp another few degrees. They are fairly quiet, but not silent. However, you cannot hear them unless you are working in a quiet office or something. ;)Recommended!!
Alex_G@NCIX Rating: Review Date: 08/20/04	Vantec Stealth 120mm Double Ball Bearing Silent Case Fan - Model SF12025L Cons:-None really Pros:-Pretty quiet Comment: I installed this for my front case fan and it lowered my CPU and motherboard temperatures by a couple of degrees each. It's fairly quiet and does a decent job. I wouldn't say it's entirely quiet as it did increase the noise my computer emits.
