I have this transparent 120mm - fan (two) end in June 2013 ordered after a new PC with me - housing was needed. My order was at Aquatuning a Monday and was the very next day there! Super Fast Shipping!
The red color I liked (the same model is available in red except currently only in blue or white LEDs) and matched the existing. For color-sensitive: The red is a beautiful, strong vermilion, thus lighter than in the picture!
The four seated in the corners LEDs illuminated the interior of the housing almost completely - Special eye-catcher for housing with a view into the interior.
This fan is one of the transparent - set of Xilence, so do not be surprised when unpacking ;-)
Important technical data according to the manufacturer:
- Voltage approximately 12 V
- Starting voltage 7 V
- 1300 U / min (maximum)
- Volume about 20.5 dB
- For the hobbyist: >>
- Input power 2.4 W
Furthermore, the device comes with a sufficiently long cable and 4 screws.
You can optionally connect the propeller with a Molex connector on wiring harness or directly to the motherboard via a 3-pin connector - but this means that automatic fan control is not possible!
However, there are a few tricks to reduce the speed (information on the net).
After the first start I was amazed at how strong the pressure generated: So you can be smooth blow-dry your hair! ;-)
With full 12 V Sapnnung the propeller is a true quiet but audible hum of itself. Substituting the speed manually but down is hard to hear anything else - with good airflow. Nevertheless, there is therefore a star less.
Again summarized:
Positives:
- Great look
- Several ways of connection
- Fairly priced
- Good Throughput
Negatives:
- Audible at full speed
My recommendation to buy aesthetically demanding bargain hunters!
