this particular cm fan is used in hyper212.. must be no other... well i also think that its impossible to generate 90cfm with such silence... and also so cheap.. i dont vbelieve this thing la. the 212 fanruns at most at 70cfm. and that too i dont believe it.. CM.. and their fans, dont blieve their specs..

Yup, as you rightly said, even if it doesn't push 90cfm, it's still a good choice as it has the bling factor with not too bad performance.
However, i have been hearing stories of CM fans using low quality Leds. Leds kaput after 2 months of usage.  blink.gif

You heard it right. Two of my CM led fans lost 1 led each shakehead.gif and it's only been 3 months. Donno abt the quality of this new fan. Tempted to buy one tho sweat.gif .

just installed 3 of this 90cfm fans into my 3D aurora case and also changed the stock hsf to Hyper212 with its 1 default fan configuration.

with these 4 fans blasting at full speed, it still ain't silent as i hope it to be. probably when all adds up, the noise increases too...
but cfm wise, it's much much higher then the 3 gigabyte fans that case with the casing although i dont know if it's truly 90cfm as claimed

Has anyone tried dismantling the leds? Since no one brings in the normal black 1.

dismantle? u dont want the led is it?
i noticed that even without hooking the fan to the power, when u spin the blades, u can see it generating the lights. i guess it's using some sort of dynamo/kinetic power to light up the led... maybe this way is consumes less power from the mobo

Couldn't agree more. It's not 90CFM though plus it ain't that silent. The airflow wasn't that bad so don't get me wrong but it ain't 90CFM. And it is not that silent as it runs at 2000rpm.

More or less I'd say that it's a good buy for those wanting silent fan with good airflow with an additional bling. For the price, the CM fan satisfy me enough and I just love the bling better than any other CM or Silverstone LED fans just because of the subtle lighting it provides. Not too bright nor too dim.

definitely a lie.. it cant beat a 12cm 60cfm fan and make louder noise than a 25db fan tongue.gif

anyway it is still a good fan in terms value and performance even is a lie icon_rolleyes.gif
