most of it quite cool...especially tat monstrous powerful Windstorm case fan...Walao ehh...greater than my house fan i tell u (& its juz a 80mm fan!!!) but sure itz louder a bit..but give&take lor: wan performance=noise.. dun wan nose=less performance
but if gamers like myself sure wont mind...cuz we blast off our speakers anyway...or

HDD cooler oso looks nice...i personally like d Orbit/Orbiter...stylish

hahaha,i got it one already but i advise u dont buy it because once i switch on my pc,its sound really horrifying,its like there's a kilang operating in your casing,think twice dude

Why not mode the fan a bit? attach some switch or fan control. just turn to the max when u need it.

Bcoz, that fan have good air flow. 4 time than my CM

no la fren,

i oredi know wat it sounds like...like've said..if u wan d best performance case fan, then u'll have 2 make lil sacrifices ma

Specifications

Weight: 180 g
Rated Power: 10.8 W
Rated Current: 0.9 Amp
Fan Speed: 5800 RPM±10%
Air Flow: 81.5 CFM
Noise: 52.1 dB (A)

Features

Up to 100% more air flow than standard case fan.
Double ball-bearing fans for extended life.
Custom made cable for fan R.P.M. detection.

i OC &my pc run almost 24/7 (thanks 2 my faithful Enermax Liberty 500W oso) so performance comes 1st...

Better mod your case to put 120mm fan, more cfm, less noise...more cool... eg. Silverstone FM-121, 110.03cfm, rpm 800~2400, 39.5dba at full speed, it come with fan controller so you can adjust it if you want it to be quite...

the packaging / everything looks like the fan is OEM from legendary vaccum cleaner - Vantec Tornado


just checked their website and compare to vantec site . yea looks very OEMish the site / products / etc

do u know it price? i also saw it.. but not ask the dealer...

Retailed @ around RM55 for 80mm & 92mm i think RM59...very good price for this little monster mah...

actually its not Vantec OEM la....its smtg like subsidiary company of Vantec...Vizo is more focused on R&D + from wat i c..their range in cooling peripherals&accessories is better...in terms of features, varities, etc...

&their enclosures..dunno what model name...Uranus i think..is very good as well

Cool stuff ppl...

Greetings !

It have been here in Lowyat for quite some time already .. since the beginning fo the year. HmM .. what I am interested is the Starlet Neon Tube and the Tornado Fan .. quite noisy but strong blower ...
Other products quite ok for the design .. but for performance wise not sure yet ..

Regards,
HughiE

hope that i will reduce heat of my computer .... the temp of cpu n motherboard still below 60

again i insist on this: if u wan a quiet fan...Winstorm is definitely not d1 for u....

but if performance is wat u seek...juz go 4 windstorm
+80mm is very common...most desktop case can fix in...

haha...i wont change my mind...will definitely go get 1...hopefully got stocks...as i've been told its selling like hotcakes!!!

get 2 of them... put behind the casing... above n below... what at powerful windstorm... cant imaging

Windstorm 92mm fan...performance wise....super GENG~!powerful....noise like what others said...freaking noisy....u have to get a fan controller...switch it on when needed~!

vizo windstorm 80mm . . .oh yeah!! dam powerful. for the air coming out. it rhox. rm55. im trying to sell mine anyway. really cant stand. TOO DAM NOISY

Went 2 LY...shit..all sold out...ask those shop promoter they say hav 2 wait till April..sold like HOT CAKES really!!!

guess there ARE end-users out there like me tat emphasize on performance & ignore those high dB....lol

actually it's the same thing..makes by SUNON


why this Windstorm comes more famous than Tornado??

** actually i still have 92mm of tornado in a wardrobe

my frens using Vizo's starlet Crystal Neon Light....v nice...
different frm other cathodes with fixed/non-motion light onli...boring.....

that Neon lite actually got Waving & Rippling effects...
i hav 2 wait till i change my case 1st...then only can buy&fix...
or i juz buy it & fix OUTSIDE my pc case instead...haha...4 d time being lor...

Tornado (Vantec) = Windstorm (Vizo/ enhanced)

i compare liao: Windstorm higher fan speed @5800rpm (100rpm higher) + lower noise lvl @ 52.1dBA (vs 55.2dBA) *this are 4 size 80mm la

Added on March 24, 2007, 11:02 amy more famous ka...hmmm....i think its cuz :
d product itself is better
market DIY lvl is higher compare 2 previously
itz principle&distributor are much more focus on it
finally.....more prefer performance than noise lvl... LOL

haha...no offence dude... ya, windstorm is not for me as my casing is using 120mm fan... I already have FM-121 d othe job for me, now just waiting to get Noctua fan for my intake to replace CM original LED fan come with the casing...

Hey! guy, saw vizo UV light at prangin mall, penang.
but the sales man say out of stock hv to wait.

I cannot wait lah!!
any1 saw any VIZO UV light. Pls tell me coz it hv 2 UV light in 1 packet jz RM 39only.

p/s: KL also can

hahah u want my windstorm bo? 80mm not using lying around together with my book. comes along with everythg including receipt for 1 to 1 warranty within 3 months. bought around 1months + d.


sri comp all it i saw alot. and yes lowyat do have a lot of dis. also got CM uv ccfl already. haha around da same price.

Well 120mm fan is also very common nowdays unless you use some cheapo casing which dont support 120mm fan. And if you dont even care bout noise, there are even better blower in 120mm category with higher cfm as compare to 80mm

2nd hand dun wan la...

so watz d prob...y let lyin around??? performance not good ma bro?

---

Added on March 25, 2007, 11:30 pmi speak 4 d mass....including ppl with 'cheapo' cases... kiddin kiddin

but seriously..if 1 chooses 2 use windstorm 80/92mm..i think it'll b better 2use it 2sucking in air to cool down d stuff inside ur case, rather than as exhaust fan lor...a combination with a 120mm fan @d rear 4 blowing out hot air would work perfectly dun u think

hey, u speak of other blower...such as????

post d info & share it ma...so we can compare compare
rite???


This post has been edited by hybrid_monster: Mar 25 2007, 11:30 PM

hahaha, too dam bising la. really dun suit me. got poison at 1st when saw them display at aLL IT. brought back home now its like factory. changing to 2 x 80mm normal uv led fan and also 12cm uv led. so lying around in my room now. haha. and for performance its dam good. make sure u use a dust filter with it. diy urself.

ooh...quite a standard combination la

wat brand uv led fan u using? cuz tat day i juz compared Vizo with CM...priced about d same... but Vizo's 80mm fan has 2900 RPM & air flow is 36 CFM....which is higher (CM's 1800 RPM & 22.84CFM)
i think tatz y CM claim their fan is SILENT....cuz lower fan speed (rpm) =sure lower dBA..but of course, lower air flow s well >>> lower cooling capability....

Spider Filter Fan. I think I saw this 120mm fan before in All IT. From spec it stated at 80cfm with 25dba, which already better than the vizo which you stated in your earlier post, 81+ cfm with 50+dba. Air flow wise not much difference but noise level is hell lot difference. Anyway this is just some cheapo 120mm case fan available in the market. Below are some 120mm with provide identical air flow, but at a much lower noise level

AeroCool Extreme Turbine 89CFM 33DBA
Aluminium Case Fan 79CFM 36DBA
Sunnon 120mm 90CFM 45DBA
Panaflo 120mm 115CFM 46DBA

oic..u comparing with 120mm fans...not aple 2 apple???? thanks 4 d info anyway

i'll find out more bout those u've said

I think I had already mentioned at earlier post where using a 120mm fan is better as when comparing to a 80mm noisy blower.

u hav ur points....but i still prefer d monstrous powerful b80mm Windstorm blower!

hmmm...the ram cooler for this vizo seems to have weird design. by clippin on the ram itself. LOL...but it gives good cooling. wonder how much does this thing cost? armada or something...

i don't understand why vizo called it as a case fan. it's more suitable to be a replacement cpu fan cause of the focus-flow like static blades, thus no dead spot in the middle of the fan, which is also usually the hottest spot on a processor heatsink. u don't need the static blades and focussed air flow for case fan, and the static fins might actually contribute to more noise and lesser airflow, not a good choice to use the vizo as case fans.

and hybrid monster, u mentioned that u compared the vizo and vantec tornado, did u compare them physically or u just compare based on specs?

i'm currently using vantec tornado running @ 5V to cool my processor, virtually silent and still pushes quite some amount of air, and certainly perform better than normal 8cm fans. have another delta focus flow 8cm and another delta 12cm 120cfm case fan lying there..

hey there,

Vizo call it a case fan cuz IT IS a case fan!!!
ok ok...u said itz better off as a cpu fan...i AGREE also...tatz y u can notice (check from d net) tat lotsa ppl oversea r modding it 2 become a cooler 4 their CPU...

haha..i've actually compared both specs & physically (found a fren with both)..but accuracy dunno 100% or not la as d Tornade oredi aged & Windstorm brand-new almost similar performance

but noise lvl-wise...u said Tornado is VIRTUALLY SILENT????? u sure bro?

read my post again... i run it @ 5V and use it on my overclocked Tbred-B @ 2.2Ghz now..

here's Tornado's specs (& Vizo's s well...)

http://www.vantecusa.com/p_td_8038h.html
http://vizo.com.tw/index.php?main_page=viz...ucts_id=8&tab=1

as far as i know...all motorized fans...wat-so-ever-fans tat is...r running on 12V...
u said ur Tornado runs @ 5V...how le? teach us la sifu...

& 5V r mainly for powering those IC on circuit boards... even our processor fans run on 12V...
(another example would b our HDD..if u check it out..u'll find tat it runs @ 5V & 12V..where STILL the 5V is meant 4 the IC while 12V are 4 d motor... )

by default, it is running @ 12v.
other than the default 12V, u can choose to run @ 7V or 5V.
for 7V, connect the fan's red wire to +12V(yellow) and the black to +5V(red).
for 5V, connect the fan's red wire to +5V(red) and the black to ground(black).

running at lower voltage will give u less airflow, and of course lower noise, but before u try any of these mods, make sure u know what u are doing, i bear no responsibilities for any damage that u might cause to your own PC.

all my fans are running on 5v to reduce noise cause now getting older, cannot stand the vacuum-cleaner-like noise of all the fans running in my PC.. previously when i'm crazy in all these stuffs, i bought a dedicated 12v/14v selectable PSU to power just my fans. see photos of my pc 3 years ago..



now still using the same PC, minus the extra PSU on top, and the delta fan on PSU cause i changed my PSU to enermax liberty, dun wanna void the 5 years warranty, so no modding on the PSU now..

tumpang thread a bit...is their ext case for HDD good???

my friend had bought it...and to tell u whut...it's really noisy~!

hey fren...

ur fren bught WHUT???

i think is the windstorm fan.

wonder why they dont wanna bring in 90mm fans here to msia according to moderno. hmmm...

went 2 d recent KL pc fair...saw a demo on full range of Vizo products...Cool?
D Windstorm got sapu dry....80mm finished...92mm i oso can c ppl sapu..

wat u guys think???


Attached thumbnail(s)

I think the Vizo Windstorm is actually the transpose product of Vantec Tornado, but their fan speed is it the same?

vantec tornado...vizo windstorm...if u can get the sizes u want... theres always the Delta FFB series... basically the same.

look for Allngap and moderno for them

myself, im tired of noise....i used to have 1x80mm FFB and 120mm FFB in my case... even with my room door closed i can still hear them from downstairs.

if u want high power fans seriously go for the 120mm. the noise is more acceptable. the 80mm ones produce a very high pitched kinda noise... which really gets to u after awhile.

Yao mou gam geng ya(got so great ka)! Can heard from downstair with room door close somemore! Sure this either Winstorm nor Tornado are not only powerfull in blowing but SOUND oso!

what u expect??? with that kinda airflow confirm noisy one...

somemore theres the bearing noise...

and the one i can hear most clearly from downstairs is the 80mm one due to that high pitched noise.

can i know how much for that fan..really interested.....

how much for that fan really interested for that fan...

Anyone know how much is the 12cm VIZO UV LED FAN ?

Vizo UVLED-120 case fan??? dude...drop by & check @ low yat 4d latest price la..who knows...mayb can bargain & lower d price somemore..

wow...upstairs&closed door liao still can hear d noise frm ur fan???
you mou kum geng ah?!?!?!?
i think itz not d fan la...mayb got SMTG else!!!

trust me its not sumthin else man...

those 80mm are real screamers.. damn friggin loud. high pitched noise somemore. it was the loudest fan i had in my case.

the other only loud fan i had was the 120mm Delta FFB. which is ALOT quieter than the 80mm

Oohhh,,,, how come high pitch sound???
u mean even when in NEW condition its like tat???
then y did u buy it in d 1st place ler fren....

or would it b..cuz its defective oredi...mayb d ball bearing spoilt liao

not ball bearing spoilt...its a Delta FFB... Deltas are known to be LOUD!

i bought it coz i wanted extreme cooling ma

also had a 120mm Delta FFB on my XP120. was getting temps as low as 24C in aircond room.

to cope with the noise i made a 12v/5v switch. so when im not around and the rig is running downloading torrents, i leave it on full...but when i wanna sleep...put to 5v and it goes silent.

im pretty sure the Vizo Windstorm will have either the same or almost the same noise as the 80mm Delta FFB

Good air flowing. But the fan is way to noisy for me. Can u imagine you switch it on during the night time u sleeping? Hell no. Btw, i bought the fan, installed it, and uninstalled it . It's in my desk now. Hehehe. However, for those who only use the pc to game without 24/7 switch it on, u can buy this fan. only if u don't mind the noise level.
