Most Favorable Review

Just what I needed!

Touch control 5 sets of Fan/Temp. Up to 25W per fan channel, USB3.0, Audio/Mic, LCD Display
Touch control 5 sets of Fan/Temp. Up to 25W per fan channel, USB3.0, Audio/Mic, LCD Display

Pros: Multiple colours for touchscreen Ability to turn fans off completely (along with their LED's) Looks cool and matches my case nicely (HAF 932)

Cons: There is an annoying beep when you press buttons on the screen, this is easily solved by covering the speaker on the pcb with a few layers of electrical tape.

Overall Review: If you are connecting multiple fans using a splitter to a single channel, you must disconnect the rpm wire on all but ONE of the fans. If not the fan controller gets confused and constantly will set the fan alarm off (beeping noise) and turn those fans up to max rpm for a few seconds.

They're Red

Pros: They work like they're supposed to. They are fairly bright and a nice red colour.

Cons: The wires to the cathodes could be a bit longer, almost not long enough to have one on the top side of the case and one on the bottom side when you have a large case (I have the HAF 932).

Lots of air!

Pros: Work very nicely, and move lots of air at full speed. Have a nice red colour vs some other fans that are more pinkish Lights up the case (and my room) quite nicely

Cons: Can be loud at full rpm, not a huge deal because I have a fan controller to turn them down.

Works like it should

Pros: Does exactly what it says.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: If you are using these to connect multiple fans to a single connector on a fan controller, make sure you disconnect, or cut the fan rpm return wire on all but ONE of the fans otherwise the fan controller gets confused from the multiple rpm signals.

Very fast, and good $/GB

Pros: *Benchmarks to speeds at or above rated speeds. *Boot and loads completely to a ready to use desktop in seconds *Pretty decent $/GB for such a fast SSD *Crucial is a very reliable company

Cons: HD Tune showed a few errors a few days after original boot, but it turned out to be a bad SATA cable and nothing to do with the SSD itself.

Overall Review: Stop debating it and just buy one, you won't be disappointed!

Much better than standard mouse pad!

Cons: *Doesn't always stay stuck to my desk, I sometimes have to rearrange it.
