Chassis Airflow
Date Issued: 20th Oct 2008

The modern PC is potentially a mass of heat output and heat production hot spots. With CPUs rated at more than 100W of heat output, single graphics boards carrying similar ratings (and people want to run two!), multiple hard drives the norm, lots of memory and mainboards covered in heatpipes to combat toasty core logic and PWM circuits, a PC appreciably warming up a room when it’s working hard is no joke.

Watercooling
Date Issued: 19th Jun 2008

Watercooling for the PC has been around for years in some form or another, for at least as long as Scan have been in business, with basic physics defining why you want to use it. That means for air cooling, to cope with increasing temperature in the heatsink you need to move the air across it faster. That is why thermostatically controlled fans in your PC will turn faster the hotter something gets.

System Noise Reduction
Date Issued: 5th Mar 2007

Anybody who has been near their share of computer systems will appreciate that not all systems make the same amount of noise. There are a number of reasons for why this is so. Firstly, a computer makes noise for different reasons. Generally, anything mechanical is going to make noise.

120mm Arctic F12 Quiet Case Fan with Fluid Dynamic Bearing, 3-pin is rated 3.8 out of 5 by 4.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Superlaggera2 from Its a fan A touch loud at 12v put a speed reduction cable on this quietened it right down and did not affect temps.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Catslayer69 from Snapped Brought 2 of these for a cheap PC build and one off the fans fins broke off in mid uses and almost ruined my CPU fan. Buy at own risk! Or I got a doggy one

Rated 5 out of 5 by grimer from Great fan. Almost silent. Total bargain. Why spend more? Not much to say. This fan is crazy cheap. Almost silent at full RPM and totally silent if you use a fan controller to reduce the speed to about 85%. I don't understand why people spend £30 on a fan, when this is available for a fraction of the price. Seriously, what do you have to lose by giving this one a try?

Rated 5 out of 5 by phaserrifle from Does everything you expect When you boil it down, it's a fan. Doesn't do anything fancy, special or interesting. BUT It does do very well at what it's intended to do. it's quiet, produces good airflow, and seems to be well put together. bottom line is, as a basic, no frills fan, you can't get any better
