Antec SpotCool 0761345-75018-9 Blue LED Case Fan

Pros: Quiet on low and medium. It blows plenty of air on medium for my Northbridge heatsink.

Cons: Little expensive with shipping. The fan cord also seems a little short.

Overall Review: I have an Asus Maximus Formula motherboard, and a full tower case. However with my new ATI 4850 card, it really heats up my northbridge chipset bigtime. I have this fan pointed directly at the northbridge heatsink, and it does a great job of keeping the NB temperature at or below 52c at full load... Idle its at 43c. Without this fan, my NB temp would reach 64 or higher and cause my computer to reboot while playing a game. Its quiet, I can only hear it if I set it on maximum speed (which I only hear a little of a whoosh of air blowing) Some other review sites say theirs was hard to bend. Mine was very easy to bend, and stays in place where I bend it. The round fan itself also rotates, and has little notches to hold the angle of the fan in place.

Pros: Blue lights are nice, its bendable, the screw in point is very sturdy and has good clearance from the mobo. Keeping a NB and CPU even cooler!

Cons: Its WIDE! I had dilusions that I could cram this between a zalman 9500 and a 5750 to cool the NB on a GA-MA770, yea right!

Overall Review: That said, got creative and secured it with zip ties from the oppisite end of the case. The neck part is stiff, but you have to remember that its going to be secured 90 degrees from the pull of gravity, so its not going to maintain a perfect position. Took off the dome fan grill too.

Pros: Low noise even at medium speed. Audible in a quiet room, but not unpleasant. No vibration - the flexible mount seems to absorb and dissipate any detectable vibration (i.e. not feed it back through your motherboard). The blue LED matches my case and system design. Easily positioned.

Cons: Bigger than I thought, but it doesn't get in the way. The variable speed switch is on the fan itself, instead of a wire lead that you could possibly route out the back or up by your case door.

Overall Review: Newegg's description should say "Antec Spot Cool" instead of just the model number, as searching for this product doesn't bring up the Newegg listing first. Also I recommend you mount this on an available screw such that the fan hangs down. Don't fight gravity, the flexible arm doesn't stay put quite that well.

Pros: Excellent cooling to both ram and cpu - sprays cooling breeze in a fairly wide swath.

Cons: Not completely silent. Not as easy to install as I expected.

Overall Review: It's cheap and effective - buy two!

Pros: Mounts easy enough. Bendy so you can point it at stuff in your case. Three speeds are nice. High moves a pretty good amount of air.

Cons: Neck is made of metal and not sheithed in plastic to prevent shorting on things. Not a problem for me because I mounted it on one of the video card case mount screws but it would be had I tried to mount it to a motherboard screw close to the vid cards. The neck is a little short, could have used a few more inches to create a 90degree bend and/or be able to mount it on the motherboard and still have enough neck length to clear my video cards (plural).

Overall Review: I would purchase another one if I needed it. It works for me as it is so I wouldn't put to much weight on my cons. I'm using it in my 800D to move more air across my video cards. I have 3-way sli with a 4th 9800GT at the very bottom thats too close to the last 280GTX to I mounted this fan to get some air between there. Gets the job done.

Pros: Can be put into many locations. I got mine for a hp slimline that had only 1 cpu fan in it. Took cpu temp from 68c to 25 on load.

Cons: non

Pros: This is really the cat's meow. I now only need 1 fan to cool my memory/NB/SB and mosfet regulators. This is because you can position the airflow so that it hits all of those items. It's large enough to produce ample amount of airflow, but small enough to fit in my Ultra Micro Fly mATX case. Lowered my NB temps by 10C over the previous fans I had rigged up.

Cons: Shipping, but buy two or more and shipping is free

Overall Review: Some may not like the blingy blue lights, but I sorta like it.

Pros: Blue LEDs look good imo and has decent air flow.I can put it were i want it for the most part and aim it at the part i want cooled.WWhich in my case is the IOH(Northbrige). Spec's for my little rig are RC-690(nice case but its a dust trap) MSI X58 Platinum SLI i7 920 D0 Batch#3844A759 Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme + 2 Yateloon's with 2 Thermalright Fan Holder's 3x2GB's G.Skill F3-12800CL8TU-6GBPI 2xEvga GTX 260 Core 216's 65nm in SLI 3xSeagate 500gb 7200.11's ST3500320AS's in Raid 0 Corsair 850TX X-FI Extreme Gamer Fatal1ty Professional Logitech z-4

Cons: The neck isnt very strong.If you point it at something it wont stay unless you have just at the right angle or its being held up by something else

Overall Review: This thing would be awesome if antec had used a 70mm fan and a stronger spring to hold the fan in position.Antec has the right idea with this.But they need to refine it a little to make it perfect
