Link Depot FAN-8025-B 80mm Case Fan

Pros: Very fast speed, extremely quiet at 3000RPM! Even quieter than my brand new AMD bare bones system fans.

Cons: None yet

Other Thoughts: 3 wire design allows for a variable speed control, I am using mine on a media PC. When it first starts up I get a squeak for a few seconds, this just started yesterday. I will post back if the barrings end up going out.

Pros: its a fan, 3pin mb connector

Cons: 3 out of 5 have died in a few months. emailed link depot for rma info and no one responds.

Other Thoughts: spend more and buy a better fan

Pros: Max RPM 3400.
Moves a lot of Air.
Easy Install.
Great price when bought in bulk.
80mm Fits most CPU Heat Sinks.

Cons: At 100% these fans can be loud.
I would compare them to a Electric Toothbrush or a Electric Razor/Clippers.

*No Screws Included

Other Thoughts: I bought 4 at 2.89$ each. All worked upon arrival. Only using 2 ATM.
I installed one inside the front of the my case, blowing air in. While I have the another installed in the back, blowing air out.
I have them set to 70% @ 2400RPMs. I can feel the air coming threw very nicely. I can place a piece of notebook paper in front of the In-take Fan (3 i.n.) and it'll be sucked up.

My CPU and GPU temps went down by 8c
I use Software called "SpeedFan" to Set my fan speeds.

Pros: Great nice and quite, moves a lot of air. more then my 140mm fans. easy install.

Cons: none!

Other Thoughts: make sure you use dust filters with this fan it moves lots of air

Pros: these fans move a lot of air! What more do you want from a fan?

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: I can barely hear them running

Pros: I got this based on looks, specs, and measure of happiness in the review section...Price was also a large factor in my choice. I am still using it, and it still performs as it should.

Cons: Let's not get to far ahead of ourselves...it is a FAN!!!
While not all fans are made equal, this one puts out the rated performance IMO. NO!!! I did not do some sort of benchmark, nor did I measure flow...I installed it, it turned on, I put mu hand in front of it, it still works more than a year later...why is all this a con? ya want super flow, super high quality, and all the other stuff some folk whine about...pay more that 3 bucks...but this is just MY opinion...It blows air real good, so it makes me real happy!
Maybe for 3 bucks, you can find s measure of happiness too!!

Other Thoughts: I clean it every once in a while, I use a small paint brush, and a old tooth brush,,,I get all da dust off it...and I pay attention to how I un-plug it, and how I plug it back in again. I am real careful not to drop it, and I don't go blowing the fins with canned air to see how fast I can get'er going...maybe that is why MINE is still in business? I don't know!?

Now...My Hy-Performance machine has dim fancy Hy-speed Fans (yep more than one---LOTS) and stuff in it...but I treat dim da same...wit care and a-tension. LOL!!

Pros: These things move a ton of air. . . plain and simple. 3pin MB header connection.

Cons: Loud. . . move a lot of air with an 80mm fan and you get noise.

Other Thoughts: It would be nice if they came with an adapter to go from the 3pin to a molex connector. Also a multi pack or bigger discount on multi purchase. I am looking at getting a bunch more, I use on computers as well as moving air in my Saltwater aquarium across my t5 lights and to evacuate air out of the top. Odd to say it but they help to keep my 38 gallon display plus 29 gallon sump at a steady temp.

Pros: Great fan worked out of the box. I have 2 running side by side in my open 5.25" drive bays. Very quiet considering they are on the outside of my case. Overall great fans great price!

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: They look insane with a black fan grill if you care about looks.

Pros: None - DOA

Cons: DOA -

Other Thoughts: Dead on Arrival, RMA not cost effective. Consider spending a few dollars more on a better quality fan that will work when it arrives.

Pros: Its cheap and it gets the job done.

Cons: SHORT power cords. It's slightly loud but not bad by any means.

Other Thoughts: I gave it a 3 out of 5 simply because of the length of the power cord. I assumed (and wrongly) that the cord would be a decent length which was my fault as well for not looking into it. I solved this problem by cannablizing the cable from my last fan (which was obviously dead to begin with) and jury riging it to this fan. It works fine for now and I have had no probs since installation.
