I just purchased one thinking it will nicely fit before my side duckt.

My god, even alone in your hand this is 40,0 dBa !!!

When it comes near case, this is a nightmare, we are talking vacuum cleaner noise !!!!

Tried to isolate surface with rubber but only with moderate level of noise.

Only if it is lying on the flat surface, noise is tolerant.

Anyone had this thing?

I just bought a ys-tech 70mm tmd fan and it is quite loud. 38db iirc. And this was for my cpu fan.

Hahaha, that is a lullaby, this thing when on the case side (duckt) goes over 40 dB

[Shogun]

It is a lullaby compared to the 80db 80mm delta he had as his last cpu fan

he?


Do you have link of this Delta?

80dB, are you sure, sure, sure?

[Shogun]

Yes, 80cfm at 80db. 80mm Delta "screamer" Ehe . Il try and dig up a link. Ive got 4 for some reason.

[spazman]

My mate has one of those delta screamers its insane!

[Shogun]

They are. I had 4 inside one case once, now that was quite noisy I actually got the case to move aswell ( was on castors at the time)

But why?

My AMD64 3200 is much warmer then your Pentium 4,
and I use right now only 3x 80mm Spire case coolers all 22 dB and under the table I even don't think about it.

Why would you place 4 (????) of this loud monsters in your case if you use normal cool P4?

I think I'll have to reduce this Cooltek by 50% and then I guess it will be normal noise, maybe even 75%, after all
he is in duckt space.

I was seeing how far i could overclock it on air. Iirc i got it to around 2600/2700 but it became unstable after that Was running very hot because of the voltage increase i had to do.

I understand, but man, that is too much noise for me.

lol I've replaced all my fans in my case with the coolermaster aeroblower and even though these shift a shedload of air, they are in fact fairly quiet.

heres a link to the little ( well their not that little to be honest ) fans

This cooler of yours, I've just look into your link.
23.6~37.5dB is fine, but very strange design.

From short moment reading and looking to small picture it seems it blows to the floor of the case? - because its body, one to be firmed with screws makes this final position.

Or this (?) thing is cooling from both sides ?

From what I see very strange design.

[Shogun]

It sucks in from the side, and blows downwards.
