QUOTE(sHawTY @ Jun 23 2008, 10:03 AM) No it's not. Cooler Master lied. 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. |

QUOTE(dARKaNGEl @ Jun 24 2008, 09:45 AM) 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. This post has been edited by skymyxe: Jun 24 2008, 11:14 AM |

QUOTE(SephirothX @ Jun 24 2008, 07:12 PM) I was wondering if I could give it some mod, like, say change the LED? You could try it. But I won't.  I like the LED that way.  |

QUOTE(seiji_kun @ Jun 24 2008, 11:18 PM) if compare wif fm123 which one better...  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.
