Quiet and Adequate 40mm Fan

So quiet, it was like it was not even there. I could not hear it with the other fans running. Moves an adequate amount of air for Northbridge/Southbridge use. Comes with hard to find 2-oin female connector required by some motherboards. Also comes with a 2-pin to 3-pin adaptor.

My Northbridge has heatsink with fan mounted using 4 screws torqued down between the heatsink fins. The corner holes in this new fan were a very tight fit for the mounting screws. Installation would have been easier if I had used a drill to make them slightly bigger.

My MB has 2-pin connection for Northbridge fan. I bought this fan for that reason. I wanted a ball bearing fan but none come with the 2-pin connector. It would be nice to find a quality ball bearing 40mm fan with connectors/adaptors for MBs requiring either 2-pin or 3-pin.

Does not move a lot of air :-(

cheap.

It does not move a lot of air , will not cool my northbridge. Not worth it to buy , its a waste of money.

If you need a 40mm fan that moves a lot of air and cool your northbrige effectively get the dynatron df124028h-3 cpu cooling fan 40mm instead of this one.
