only two screws?so though

maybe can try this mod also.clean and tidy.i like it

maybe you can start business to mod the fan cards

Yo bro, seriously Ive thought about it b4, but... Hehe, no ler, no model, no raputation, no stock also, hehe...

no patent also since you copy the idea from Vantec fan

but you had made a good job.keep it up

madman mind teaching me hw u make a 12v/5v switch. aint no engineering student. lol. the other alternative is to get the fan controller from vcool later on. else i gonna face dis factory machine for a long long time.

DO NOT use ANY fan controllers for ur windstorm or FFBs... ESPECIALLY FFBs.. if u do that...u might as well just burn ur money with a lighter. much quicker and much less painless

not unless u make the fan controller urself and made sure it can support uber high amperes. and i dont think its easy to make what with sourcing for the parts and all.

currently there are NO fan controllers in the market that can officially support the high amperes of the FFBs such as the FFB1212EHE (3.0A). even the ones in sidewinder computers wont recommend it. most fan controllers are meant for normal fans.. those that are around 1.0A and below.

as for the switch...its very easy...i oso not engineering student and when i made the switches... i had ZERO soldering knowledge. i used these pictures as a guide for the switches.

12v / 5v Switch

12v / 7v Switch

there are more switch configurations but i wanted simple ones. if ur interested to find out... head on over to CLIFF'S FANBUS which is where i got those pictures.

EDIT: forgot to mention.... the SPDT switch in the picture.. its basically and on-off-on switch. which is what i asked for when i went to the electronics shop

also forgot to mention that before u start making the switch, better make sure that ur fan can start from standstill at 5v. and check if it can start at standstill at 7v as well. so that u can know how low u want the fan to go and which one would actually work for u

anyone using this fan

is this for real or just another marketing strategy

Thermaltake A2368 Product Link


Max. Air Flow: 78 CFM
Noise: 21 dBA

that looks alot like the BTVX fans. altho thats orange but ths is red...if its the same fan...its has a decent cfm/noise ratio

hey guys! looking for a 92mm fan..hehehe any recommendations? anyone knows where to find vizo blue green uv led fan(92mm)...thanks!

Lowyat Plaza --> lots of shops selling it
Forum --> in bulk order, PM bombman

that airflow/noise ratio cant be right....can it?????

it is known that thermaltake has a tendency of bullshitting with their cfm/dba rates.

i thought there's only 12cm fan for VIZO that' selling at the shop..

it is not as i have used many thermaltake fan it has never being that quiet....

yah very right ... even the most quiet fan also not that quiet ..

dont quote me onn this, but iinm i read somewhere that they measure dba frm like 10 feet away, if thats true, even the the delta's will sound acceptable

any suggestion on 40mm fan? what brand should i choose or does it make no different?

LOL! Delta can be heard even from the next door house lar. I haf friends that got complains from neighbours about the whining jet engine sound coming from their servers at home.

wahlao, what delta is that....anyway since talking abt delta's what u guyz think abt this 60mm delta...specs wise looks pretty decent...or dont tell me delta also bs abt specs



Specifications: 60x60x10mm, 13.42 CFM @ 3000 RPM, 24.5 dBA, 0.84 watts, 0.07 amps, Maximum Air Pressure 1.65 mm H²O, 12v DC, 3 pin Molex header connector.

pix frm sidewinder

@cablesguy
i think that delta is the fan that comes with the stock heatsink for AMD64 s754 n s939. it does look like it

any chance u tried the fan...coz the dba looks ok

of course i did.... im using it in my HTPC. and used to run it in my main rig oso. its good enough to keep my S64 2500+ and A64 2800+ cool.

noise wise... as typical as a stock AMD cooler lor

EDIT: wait a minute...something just occured to me....is the s754 & s939 AMD cooler fans 60mm or 70mm? if im not mistaken theyre 70mm right? if theyre 70mm then most likely the 60mm cablesguy posted never used before

np ...would be good if someone tried that...anyway some info for those looking for silent fans, managed to test 2 different type of 120mm fans, the Scythe S-Flex F and the Yate Loon D12SM-12
