QUOTE(J-Slade @ Nov 18 2006, 10:36 AM) Lets discuss a topic here... Basically with a nice heat sink ..whether u turn to high or low RPM it may not make so much of difference .... unless the heat sink is really weak in dissipate heats.I dunno if you guys have ever tested this. Try to get your fan to fun faster (higher rpm) and see whether the temperature of ur cpu drops? Cos what I did was, I set to a high n low settings... all I got the difference was a 1°C Secondly... I dunno how many people notice this but the speed of your intake (masuk) and exhaust (keluar) makes a big difference. But this is odd, my case worked effectively in reverse. They say that your intake should have a higher air flow (cfm) and higher speed (rpm) than your exhuast, but mine is that my exhaust is faster and better air flow than my intake and my case is cooled about 4°C better than the 'recommended' sequence... anyone knows why? Is it because we should always suck the hot air out more than bring new cool air in?  personally i prefer to have higher rpm for exhaust as it could take out the heat accumulated at the CPU area while the intake should be just enough for cooling off the HDD.... |

There is no exactly perfect fan when comes to case cooling ... it's more about the design of the casing and flow of the air.....
any medium RPM fan that push around 45+ CFM will do good enough ..... anything higher would causes excessive noise ...and the best is to have clear way ... more things that obstruct the airflow would also causes noise ... example is the HDD cage area that always comes with 12CM fan...of course there is no solution for this scenario unless u water cool the HDD...and remove the fan... but other component such as chipset and gc ram would need the airflow to stay cool.... |

Agree with lolhalol... but it still kind of noisy if run at default speed ... although the color matching would be nice for UV themed case....

ho.. the different is by at least 3 or 4 times more .... maybe u could visit OC pardise...
see yourself the different ... it's like u can feel the airflow even at half a meter away .... no way to compare.... |

QUOTE(Edi8888 @ Nov 23 2006, 12:14 PM) is it really one 12cm fan is better then 2 12cm fan? which one are u comparing? 1) single 12cm fan to 12cm x 2 2) 12cm VS 8cm X 2 12cm perform definately better than two 8cm ... it push more similar airflow at lower spin ... which also mean lower noise ..... 1 12cm fan vs 2 12cm fans is hard to judge.... but having two 12cm fan close together perform not as good as having it separated apart for certain distance...... it cool off larger area..... |

QUOTE(sunauto @ Nov 23 2006, 02:35 PM) Well, how about two 8cm fans running at around 4800 rpm, wouldn't that give a better airflow than a single 12 cm fan? Just wondering if I'm right about this and of course, noise is definitely present at such a speed. of course it win.. and noise level would be unbearable .. question is why would u do so ?  unless u are favoring fan noise ....  |

QUOTE(Skylinestar @ Nov 28 2006, 09:47 PM) how much is the CM LED silent? It would cost RM30 in most LYP shop.... nice but prefer UV fan as it is even more silence ...i dont particularly concern so much of the airflow .. by the way, what's the best fan controller? must have black aluminum faceplate. |

I compare both of it on the spot ... somehow ... UV spin lower than LED version ... which also lead to lower CFM and ultimately lower noise ....
spec is always spec ..it has never 100% correct .. just like handphone as well if u try from different store .. u will notice the LCD screen color and keypad touch is slightly different ... |

Agree with the TT fan ... but i just don't really like Blue LED smartcase fan as the noise is quite loud.... unless lower down to 1K RPM .. if that's the situation might as well use something that only spin around that RPM....

I am curious here as well.. i being asking my friend what's different between 90 and 92 mm fan ...
storm721984 told me it's the same ... but still curious about the actual fact... manufacturer fact doesn't seems to be reliable ... |

Guess it does not last long right for its silence... .
too bad else it would be amazing to see how well the fan could perform ... |
