Bought to cool Raid controller card and gives good airflow for low noise. Only gripe is supplied screws are too short
SIR –
Brilliant and so quite I am using mine on a 3D printer for the E3D with an printed adapter.
mark richer –
Is fairly quiet, I have it blowing on to my motherboards VRMs and can barely hear it running, which is nice because a lot of little fans like this tend to make a high-pitched whiney kind of noise.Only wish for this fan is that it was PWM as opposed to the 3-pin connector
Steve Gailey –
I bought five of these to put in a server to replace the normal screaming fans. They provide reasonably good airflow and are completly silent.
m smith –
Not as quiet as I’d hoped for my “silent” HTPC build. I had to buy two of these for my case and they are now bothdisconnected in favour of a large slow 120mm fan which is much quieter in the living room.
Aron Somodi –
Nothing fancy, just a quiet fan – which is kind of rare among this small fans,It does its job right, and I hope it will do for years.
Tim C. (Timmus) –
Accidental purchase but got plans to use for NVMe Cooling with a 3D printed cover for the TUF Z270 mk1 mobo by Asus good air flow and quiet
Kasia –
Working fine and silently
Amalthée –
Ventilateur efficace à prix correct.
Article arrivé dans les temps et bien emballé. Acheté en deux exemplaires.Points positifs :- Ils sont silencieux et efficaces.- Bon rapport qualité / prix.- Ils sont utilisés sur une imprimante 3D pour remplacer le ventilateur d’origine qui était trop bruyant et le résultat est très satisfaisant.J’espère que mon commentaire vous sera utile pour faire votre choix. Si tel est le cas cliquez sur “oui” (je n’y gagne absolument si ce n’est le fait de savoir que le temps passé pour rédiger mon commentaire n’a pas été perdu).Si vous avez des questions, n’hésitez pas !

Works great
I put a couple of these in a 2u server. They are very quiet and have been great for about 2 years now with no issues.
P. Leng –
Perfecto
Un pelin caro para lo que es, pero el funcionamiento es indiscutible. Reemplazo perfecto para el ventilador de ventilacion horroroso de la Mars Pro, ahora es completamente silenciosa, solo se oye el motor
Jeremy –
