    Anyone use these fans. What are they like

    Peeps

    My Sharkoon T9 Value case came with 3 Green LED fans that are TBH pants. My 9 month old sons farts move more air.

    i have been looking at these LINK as a replacement for them to keep up the green theme.

    Are they any good?

    The spec says good but the price too good to be true.

    Compare to all the other green LED ones on SCAN it is the best spec but also the cheapest.

    Whats up with that?

    They have 69.69 cfm and really high static pressure so they would be great for mounting on to a heatsink. At that price I think you should go for it.

    That's what I though.

    The CFM is awesome and what I really need for good air flow in my case and through my hyper 212.

    With good fans, I can up my OC.

    My fear is that on paper they are good and really they suck. They are Coolermaster so its a good name.

    Not one I have used before.

    Re: Anyone use these fans. What are they like

    Be prepared to experience a plane taking off. These things are loud, I had them, got fed up of the noise and replaced them. I currently have Xigmatek XLF-F1253 much quieter and not bad CFM. But unfortunately they don't do green (I don't think anyway)

    But on the plus side you really can feel the airflow coming out of the things, they do the job, just loud

    Thanks for that.

    Looking at the Xigmatek, looks nice and good spec. Shame its not green.

    As for the coolermaster, not really bothered by the noise as my wife likes the noise my PC makes just now. It has 6 120mm fans in it just now and its purring away nicely, I do admit however 3 are useless.

    I am looking at air flow over quietness. Maybe these are the ones for me.

    I didn't look at the noise levels, I just checked how much air they pushed and how hard they pushed it, but then I'm using really quiet Silverstone Air Penetrator fans, which are quiet with ok airflow and pretty decent static pressure but they are double the cost of the Coolermaster fans.

    Would love to get quiet ones if I had the chance, but they must be green LED. Whole reason I bought my case.

    Sad but true.

    Re: Anyone use these fans. What are they like

    Well if noise doesn't bother you Sickleflow are probably the best fans for you at that price. Hard to find fans which push a lot of air at that price. If you have fan control they're worth it.

    I can find a lot of great branded fans with other LED colours but not green unfortunately.

    I go with LEDs for the theme too orange for me.

    Sold elsewhere but this is the cheapest place:
    http://www.jamdup.com/clf-f1253.html

    For more details:
    http://www.xigmatek.com/product.php?productid=54

    So it's the zigmatek or cooler blaster, which path will you take?

    These are quite loud I would be preparing some ear plugs.
