About this item
- GREATER EFFICIENCY - LESS NOISE AT HIGHER AIRFLOW: At low fan speed, the motor noise is key, a motor developed in Germany with a new alloy/lubricant combination reduced friction and noise
- INNOVATIVE DESIGN: Design of fan blades improves air flow and facilitates efficient ventilation, impeller was designed with a focus on minimzing the noise level yet delivering the desired airflow and pressure
- TWO WAY INSTALLATION: Blow warm air out of the case. Draw cool air into your case
- LONG SERVICE LIFE: The Fluid Dynamic Bearing comes with an oil capsule that avoids lubricant leakage, thus this bearing is as quiet as a sleeve bearing but comes with a higher service life
- TECHNICAL DATA: Fan speed: 800 RPM, Airflow: 37 CFM/62.9 m³/h (@ 800 RPM), Noise Level: 0.08 Sone (@ 800 RPM), Pin: 3-pin

As for the product itself, it works as advertised so far. Plugged it in and it ran smoothly and pretty much silently right from the start, without any issues encountered. It moves about as much air as I expected, it has no extra features, and it works as advertised.
I needed a simple, no frills fan for my desktop, I got exactly what I was looking for. I am satisfied.
This fan would be great for a HTPC case that lacks sound deadening but has plently of openings for airflow. No need for a fan controller because this thing is dead silent at 12v. I will likely purchase more for such a build. I would avoid using this fan in any situation where it's airflow may be restricted in any way, it simply is not designed for that.

Le débit d'air en est affecté mais il fait son travail.
Me decidí por éste en concreto porque las review que encontré hablaban muy bien de esta serie de ventiladores. Y no se equivocaban:
- Buenos materiales. Obviamente es plástico casi en su totalidad (como todos los ventiladores), pero los rodamientos y el encapsulado con aceite es bueno.
- Silencioso. Del punto anterior se deriva el poco ruido que mete. En reposo apenas es audible. Si le pides más 'caña' al PC lo notarás, pero seguirá siendo un ruido MUY aceptable. Lo dice alguien muy tiquismiquis con estas cosas... Con anclaje a caja utilizando tornillos convencionales no se percibe ningún tipo de vibración.
- Buena disipación. A pesar de su bajo ruido, mueve el aire en el interior de la torre de manera muy eficiente. Cabe aclarar que aunque yo lo he usado para desalojar el aire caliente, el ventilador puede utilizarse tanto para meter aire frío como para sacar el aire caliente de la caja del PC. Tan sólo hay que fijarse en qué posición realiza dichas tareas (lo dejan claro en las instrucciones del reverso de la caja).
- Fácil instalación. Conector de 3 pines que, en mi caso, ha ido directo a la placa. Si deseas conectarlo a la fuente de alimentación probablemente necesitarás un adaptador.
Para el precio que tienen sin duda que son una buena compra. El color blanco es bonito y hace que se note menos el polvo. No he tenido problemas para conectar los frontales en una caja ATX.
