5 out of 5 eggsReplacement for DF-85

Pros: Getting this fan to replace the one I accidentally broke why foolishly reaching in my case while it was powered on.. *facepalm*

Cons: None that I know of; I trust Antec's build quality and should have no problem with the replacement.

Overall Review: Newegg made a typo in the Details: "33.6 CFM - 33.6 CFM" Should be "33.6 CFM - 58.9 CFM"

But I won't be hatin.

4 out of 5 eggsReplacement fan

Pros: It works, and is what the case came with (sort of).

Cons: It supposedly only has 2 speeds, which is accurate for the original but not this replacement.

Overall Review: I had broken a blade trying to clean this top-mounted fan without removing it. This replacement fits well, and has the connection for the rear control on the case. the original had only 2 speeds that maxed at 800rpm. Interestingly, this replacement seems to vary speed according to the settings I made in the motherboard fan controls; which the original did not. 1 egg taken off because on the low speed setting I get occasional ridiculous rpm readings. No way does this run at 15000 rpm.
As regards the seller, it took about a week to get to me, which was not unreasonable given that I placed the order on a Friday night. The product was in Antec packaging, and was what I expected.

5 out of 5 eggsWorked for 6 Years

Pros: The ones I had worked for six years, bought replacements because both bearings wore down. I was able to extend the lives with a little oil and replied pressure to push them back into their sockets. They died peacefully with no grinding noises.

Cons: They started showing symptoms around 4 years, I ran them on High 24/7 not a bad life cycle, but unfortunately there wasn't much I could do.

Overall Review: I'm sure there are better fans, but I was replacing my DF-85's fans with the same ones since I have their control box still installed in the back.

2 out of 5 eggs

Pros: Quiet, mostly.

Cons: Worked fine for more than a year, but after 18 months it will only start up when switched to high, and it makes a loud rattle when switched to low. Clearly on the verge of death.

Overall Review: One of these came pre-installed for vertical (top) exhaust in my Antec Three Hundred Two case. I'm happy with the case, but I'll be replacing the fan with another brand.

5 out of 5 eggsAntec Two Cool 140mm Case Fan

Pros: Neweggs service, delivery and price. Discount for multiple purchase of these.
Work well as a manual fan, and cool decent as a puller fan in the top of a case.
Have used these before, last 3-4 years, above average.

Cons: None

Overall Review: These seem to work the best for my Antec 100 & 300 cases.
