I came across Cooler Master coming out with 90cfm fans and 19 dBA. Is this real? Any users comment?

How was the performance, in terms of silence when compared to other cooler master fans? Is it really 19db or the minimum noise? Got typhoon noise happening in your rig? Hehehe
P.S: Are you selling this?

i think the db rate is not accurate, may be it's measure from far away, but 90CFM can be achive with 2000 rpm.

Is it really that good?
19dba for 90cfm at only RM35? Even Scythe fans, which are known for the good dba and performance ratio cost at least RM50 in msia.

That's what i am thinking. Too good to be true! If this thing for real, then all of the current fans in the market will be replaced by this beauty. smile.gif Hopefully some users can inform us, whether this fan does perform and yet being silent as being mentioned.

It's fake.
There's no way a 120MM fan running at 2000RPM able to produce 90CFM while only producing 19dBA of noise.

Unless the tester put the noise detector far far away from the fan, then that's another story, but that would be cheating.

tis fan only moves around 65+CFM, but silencer then those evercool 2000rpms... which move around same cfm.. if compare with my panaflo side by side, u can feel cm fan is weaker... my panaflo fan rated 83cfm...

so in the end i still feel tht tis fan quite worth since its silencer then vizo and evercool fans... and also looks unique...

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

Thermaltake, SilenX, Aerocool over-rated their fans too

Quite hard to know unless ownself tested. Waiting for my fans from Zhen Wei then only post results. But actually, the bling bling factor was quite attractive along with the 'numbers' which came along. smile.gif

+1 and I do agree that the fans are over-rated. It doesn't make sense to have 90cfm with 19dBA as even the Scythe fans produce more sound and lower cfm's.

Just read the forum being mentioned. Summary:

1)Not as quiet as being mentioned if all fans run at 2000rpm
2)If put a lot of these fans=noisy

Recommendation: Install fan controller smile.gif

the papst's fan running nice... but currently using the CM fan on my radiator... trying tis CM fan, the airflow higher then the papst... now finding a DC voltage converter which can step up the voltage to around 17-20v...i think the papst fan shall shine at tht voltage since its 24v fan... u got any idea of getting those DC voltage converter? stepping up the voltage from 12v to around 15-20v...

How can the led version pushes so much air than the non-led version? The non-led version only pushes near 70CFM.

70cfm also ok what... cheap fan. u pay peanuts u get monkey la. the issue that they put wrong claim is, maybe because they measure the cfm by putting the 120mm fan spinning in front of a table fan, so the fan's real output + kipas meja = 90cfm.

Check the specs here. I don't know where people got the 90cfm. It's clearly written as 69.69cfm. Must be a mis-print on the box.

yeah, just realised that they are different models.
However, i strongly doubt there's any difference between the 2 fans. It's just some marketing gimmick from coolermaster.

busta_dude selling a delta gila kipas 190cfm... the *thingie behind the blade* (dunno what to call em) is curved as to create turbulence, hence the extra high cfm and extra excruciatingly annoying whining (or whooshing? u decide) sound.

btw, i got 2 of those 90cfm fans. and i feel i need another one...

It ok lor for the price about the same as another CM silent fan...I have four of these and mount in my Centurion 590. The air quite a lot compare to normal silent fan and also silent my rig hardly can be heard after on with ceiling fan on. Planning on getting another 2 of these...Even not @90CFM, it quite satisfying for me....Cheers...

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

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.

yup it aint silent. maybe if i only have 1 then it might be silent but now i have 3 in 1 casing so nope, not silent enough ahaha.
my original gigabyte fans were more silent since it runs at max 900 rpm which makes the cfm sux like hell...

led isnt as bright but that's nice for me. no need too bright hehe

Haha, true enough. I love this fans LED too. Kinda cool. I've all the 4 fans running and surely it's not silent as you said. I also tested with only 1 fan and surely my previous Silverstone LED fan is quieter. But the Silverstone fan runs at 1200rpm and this CM long life fan runs at 2000rpm. So as you've mentioned before, it ain't dead silent but for the amount of air it pushes, the fan does a pretty good job I'd say.

fm123 is a model, silverstone fm123 . . . but definite fm123 is better, freakin high rpm but noise also a killer . . . its rm 69 for 1, cm 90cfm is only rm 30-35 one.

I've Silverstone FM123 and used FM92 before as well. FM123 trumps the CM fan hand down. No doubt or argument bout it.

First, the FM123 has higher rated speed which can be adjusted as you wish with the adjustable contoller.
Second, the FM123 will boost higher CFM along with higher speed been adjusted.

In conclusion and from my personal experience. The CM fan does pushes air and you can actually feel the air flowing if you're using it as an exhaust fan. But if wanna compared to Dual-ball bearing, high quality build, adjustable speed FM123, the FM123 is one of the best fan with high CFM's that no doubt push a hell lot of air.

the noise rating is a fake.... read from other forums... the 19db is minimum noise level@5V~7V 1000~1300 rpm. 90cfm is maximum air flow@2000 rpm

my comments aren't rubbish... i'm telling the facts which based on website reviews & forums.... and not simply by listening with my naked ears....
Maybe CM test methodology is different from other manufacturers... thats why the rating is so overrated....

d fans r ok...better than the stock CM690 fans...in all likelihood it's probably btw 60 - 70CFM...no more...so to cut a story short CM probably mislead abt the 90CFM claim...alas it's still a good fan...hv 3 install in my rig...and i based my conclusion by comparing it with my delta with 88CFM and the CM fans don't come close to the delta in terms of CFM...

Dont worry , normally their LED will burn 1 only, then the 3 will last quite sometimes, not like acryan,1 shot all burst. Based on my experience using CM and ACryan's fans.

Not to say much bout it but the 90cfm and 19dba both are fake. Many cooling manufactor likes to put up fake data including coolermaster, thermaltake, gigabyte, asus etc. If you are looking for more accurate reading, find the review which test the cooler's real noise and airflow not based on the data shown. Delta, NMB, Nidec, and other OEM fan supplier data is quite accurate so don't have to hasitate. The brand that i haven't find out have fake data is thermalright (as they are manufactoring HSf, but the fan is not specified the specs) and Silverstone (well as it's reputation is their prioty, at least for now they won't do that).

mine running at 1800+ rpm only as shown in smartguardian. comparing the cm longlife with the uvnium uvled which is rated at 78cfm, i felt that the cm lose by a bit so my guess is it's around 68cfm (definitely not 90cfm). Just my opinion though biggrin.gif

Bought 4 of these fans in september from Zhen Wei, so far no problems, they do caused alot of vibrations, i have to get the silicon screws to kill the vibrations. Its definitely not 90cfm, i recon around 55-65cfm only. I'm having 4 of these together with a TT Smart Fan w/VR Control, 200mm fan and a normal LED CM fan infront. i cant hear a thing from my PC.... its completely silent. I'm sitting like only 2-3 feet away from my rig.

1 fan bottom, intake.

Please don't tell me that the 69.69CFM is also fake and it's lower. If its fake then I rather get the 90CFM one

this fan is definitely 90cfm... WITHOUT INSULATION

if you put it into your casing, there is some resistance from the case it self... those dust filters and metal grills slows the air down

im using 1 unit of 90cfm fan in my comp as an intake on my left side panel
the fan is so strong that it turns all the holes in the case to exhaust air from the case...

i has only 1x 80mm fan and 1x 130mm fan in the power supply as an exhaust and both of the fan did not produce as much air flow as 1 unit of 90cfm fan

i added a homemade dust filer onto the fan so capture every incoming dust and it really works...

my pc is clean and i do not need to do much maintainance except cleaning the dust filter

it depends on the space of the casing. if small, able to push out more air. if put it at open space, you almost can feel the air brushing your eyelid.

CM fans always fake their test results ...

it's easy to remember which fake their results ... just remember these

so far only a few fans really report their TRUE CFM ...
Yate Loon, Scythe, Delta, Papst, Sunon and Sanyo Denki

the rest all crap bout their CFM and decibel

For those who got low speeds, try to connect the fan to other power supply jack. Recently I just connected one of my 90CFM fan jack to other power supply jack and it went full speed!

I realized that the previous jack I was using was also connected to my HDD, so many no enough power for my fan to run at full speed..

there is a setback for this 90cfm.

If you treat the fan as exhausted mounted on top, you will suffer vibration and sound discomfort. I had install 2 unit on my cm690... the vibration....

But if you mount the fan on vertical or pushing the air down, no problem.

I suspect the ball bearing position cause the vibration and sound.

Nope..I bought 4 of it..now I'm using 3 of them in my casing..so far satisfied..

Previously when I was using Intel's HSF with my Q6600, my temp during idle was 55C. After installing these fans it went down to 50C or 49C!!

I didn't know that these fans can make a difference of 5-6C rclxms.gif

I replaced the screws with Silicon Screws, and no more vibration. You should try using silicon screws. I'm having 3 fans on top without vibration now.

HAF932 comes with 230x200 fans. Megaflows are 200x200. But you can put Megaflows on HAF932.

To me, the most important is that it pushes lots of air. the 19dba is rated when the fan is outside the casing..obviously its more noisy when inside the case..

Hmmm, last year I use 2 of this fan, but now got 1 "cabut" .... Don't know why like can't turn, although clean those dust... It look like old time fan turn very very slow....
And 1 more thing is... this fan can't add oil in bearing there... because of all is close by the plastic.

I use 5 of these fans in my CM590 (with window) casing (2x top exhaust, 1x rear exhaust, 1x side panel intake, 1x HD cage intake). Fan speed controlled automatically by mobo (temp controlled) and Aerocool fan controller. 5 fans running at the same time is quite loud. Not the high-pitched whine common with high-speed Delta fans, but just a general loudness. Luckily for me that rig sits in a spare room with another rig (which is very silent due to silent fans + sound proofing materials). So I am rarely in that room. The rigs run 24/7 (folding@home, and DVD ripping from time to time).

Due to the high volume from many fans, I've decided to only use 1 or 2 of them (for intake) in my 2nd CM590 casing. Will use the CM140mm fans as exhaust, along with CM's UV reactive 120mm fan (the casing will have extensive UV lighting scheme), and a 120mm Panaflo (more CFM than this CM "90CFM" fan, based on unscientific personal "hand feeling" test), plus CM's 120mm silent fans for the rest.

On their own, I would say they are relatively quiet. It's just that once you have many of them together, plus 2 other rigs in the same room with multiple fans each, every little bit of sound adds up and the result can be loud.

if you want a cheap fan...this izzit, for RM25 such a coolooking fan is kinda ok.... but surely its not a very quiet fan and definitely not 90cfm like they claim....so your choice really...like they always say here...if you want a high cfm fan go find yateloon or silverstone on panaflo etc etc....

so its safe to say here its a FAKE doh.gif

if you think about it, since the yateloon its hard to find, the silverstone price just to high and the panaflo, delta is not coolooking enuff...this fake 90cfm fan is still kinda good cuz the alternative to it was XLF and Vizo starlet and hmm and tats about it i think, other brand its hard to find, at least in lowyatPlaza....

Both of tat fans above only produce 62 cfm while this fake 90cfm produce near to 70...i do handtest between XLF and this fake90fan and clearly this fake fan pushing more air...so dow its fake its still kinda good...its cheap somemore...

I thought YL fans are make much noise compared to this 90CFM fan..no?
How much is a good YL fan and usually how much dB is considered quiet?

order from ebay lorh XD... actually some guy here in the forum have the fans lol.. try using the search button or try googling.. btw the 90CFM fan, i think its more to 70CFM 24-28dBa liao.. but i think this fan is worth it lah... RM30 for a fan that has blue led, silent and pushes 70CFM is quite ok edi, unless u want an Ultra Kaze that spins 3000RPM and pushes 133cfm of air with a dba of 45 =_=, too bad it aint loud as my gpu at 100% fan speed haha xD.. but theres another version of the ultra kaze, 2000 RPM but pushes around 82CFM of air, quite loud also.. 34dBa ..wherelse the most silent spins at 1000RPM and pushes 44CFM of air at 19dBa... all the fans are 38mm in thickness and some guy said its bigger than the original fan size, so better measure ur cpu first.. a lot of people have problems trying to fit these things inside their case when trying to mount it dual but if single should be easy, besides fan is ugly D:.. i prefer the ixtrema lol..


Added on May 27, 2009, 8:05 pmo yeah and i just found a fan that looks cool too, too bad the specs are too little/limited

I think Sunbeam fan attach to their CCF also 90CFM (read from their box)..
and not so loud if inside casing.. even quieter than CM (I got one as my intake 120mm)...
when case close... just hear hurm sound (not so loud.. if i switch on stand fan.. not hear it.. but let the computer run at night for downloading purpose.. of course can hear) but dunno which fan produce that...

My fan

intake :
CM 120mm 69.9/90cfm (which one??)
CM 80mm 34cfm (if not mistaken)

exhoust :
CM 80mm 34cfm

internal fan :
Sunbeam 120mm for CCF
2x 80mm Accelero Twin Turbo

This fan is pure rubbish. 90cfm?! lol i wonder it even does 30cfm. I wont even pay more than 5 bucks for this fan.

Have u ever tried putting ur hand behind a fan exhaust where u can feel nothing? This fan can do it. That's what the 5 bucks are for, for the magic show.

Hmm, there's also a possibility how to obtain 90cfm on this fan with 19db. An open area with no air restriction, use a powerful delta fan to blow through this fan, shouldnt be a prob that way to reach 90cfm. In a close case or rad, i bet it wont have enough static pressure to produce above 30cfm.

If you feel nothing when putting your hand behind the fan exhaust..means your fan is not moving at full speed..probably coz not enough power..

I've experienced this before..and after changing the power cable it runs at full speed. Besides if you read this thread, there are users who can feel the air being pushed out.

Its not a pure 90CFM fan but also not a pathetic 30CFM fan as what you claimed. Read this thread and you'll know it runs around 60-70CFM..

It looks like you din read the whole thread and posted this rubbish -.-

I've been testing (non-scientifically, just using my hand and my own estimate of which fan has more airflow) a few 120mm (CM "90cfm", Panaflo 103cfm, Silverstone (forgot model #, it came with NT06-Lite heatsink), CM silent fan, CM blue LED (several models), Vizo "UV" LED, CM UV reactive fan), fans for my recent rig builds, and came to the following conclusion:

1. CM "90cfm" fan > Enermax Twister Magma (IIRC rated at 69cfm, correct me if I'm wrong pls).
2. Panaflo 103cfm fan is much more powerful than CM "90cfm" - difference felt a lot more than difference in #1 (so official cfm diff of 13cfm between Panaflo and CM felt more than the official difference of 21cfm between CM and Enermax)
3. CM "90cfm" fan > Xigmatek XLF (the one with white LEDs)
4. CM "90cfm" fan > 140mm CM silent fan (rated at 60cfm)
5. CM "90cfm" fan LEDs still working after >1 month running 24/7 - wondering when it will start to die sweat.gif since I have an older rig with CM LED fans and most of the LEDs already dead (but those fans about 2 years old)

So I concluded using my completely unscientific and inaccurate method that CM "90cfm" is probably (if Xigmatek, Enermax and Panaflo uses accurate cfm numbers) around 75-80cfm. For RM28-30/fan, it's pretty good and powerful, just that you will worry the LEDs won't last.

I currently have 8 of them running in 3 different rigs. One rig (CM590) has 5 of them (3 exhausting - top 2x, rear 1x; and 2 intakes - side window, HD cage) and it has allowed me to have CPU (E6600 overclocked, Zalman 9700) full load temp at 45-47C in ambient 30-33C, and GPU (9800GT, Zalman VF900-Cu) full load temp at 51C.

On a side note: of all the fans I tested, the Silverstone was the most powerful (it was a thick one = 38mm width), I forgot the model number, but it was bundled with their NT-06Lite heatsink. Definitely a "finger-chopper" fan if you're not careful. Kinda noisy at full power too.

Actually I used to buy RM10-12 Icute fans and they give much better air flow compared to CM 90 cfm fan smile.gif Sometimes we need to know these companies don't make fans but is made for them by another company. They just label the fans up as their own product.

It sounds like you are saying "This fan can go nowhere near 30CFM"..

A forum is for people to argue, comment and share info..it doesn't mean that I can only comment on what TS posted lol..

If you feel offended then I'm sorry and I mean no offense but still..to me.. that statement above is rubbish tongue.gif

But I have no comments about "In a close case or rad, i bet it wont have enough static pressure to produce above 30cfm." laugh.gif

Okay, here's some reviews:

http://www.overclock.net/air-cooling/74507...er-corsair.html

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf3p5XfYLsA

1) You feel nothing when you put your hand behind the fan, because the fan has High CFM not STATIC PRESSURE.
2) HIGH STATIC PRESSURE doesn't mean HIGH CFM.
3) HIGH CFM doesn't mean HIGH STATIC PRESSURE.
4) Of course some fans have both HIGH CFM and STATIC PRESSURE.
5) HIGH STATIC PRESSURE fan good for blowing heatsink or other hardware in your casing.
6) HIGH CFM fan good for exhaust/intake (More cool air go into the casing, hot air exhaust from the casing fast)

Correct me if I'm wrong blush.gif
I'm using Cooler Master 90 CFM Green LED Fan now, quite satisfied with it. rclxms.gif

*Edit* The noise(dB-A) that stated in the specification is fake!!!

If you're using as a CPU cooler or radiator fan, the static pressure matters a lot. It's not the cfm really smile.gif

Artic cooling f12 will easily dapao CM 90cfm fan. Better bearings, higher static pressure... not sure for airflow though...

and another thing f12 beat CM 90cfm, u dun have to worry about leaked oil from bearing and dead LEDs from CM...

I got the CM 90 cfm fans and I got to say that the static pressure on this fans is not good at all.

Even a simple paper or pingpong test, I got a couple of different fan models and the CM 90 cfm has the weakest pressure among all

I have three of these (my sig brows.gif)
It really pushes 90CFM without any thing blocked its airflow
It has ultra low static pressure (i think cm lie us on this...)
CFM will drop easily by low pressure

depends lar bro, if u planning on using those cheap cm ones, i would advise to cut our the fan holes in your casing cos they dun have static pressure. better suggestion, get these artic fans and use either ccfl/led strips to light up your case. i then use dual wired diy led kits to give extra light in key areas.
