Wonderful
Pros: WOnderful fans, moves lots of air. I have two of them acting as intake fans on the back of my case. Lots of air flow. 3 Speed control options are wonderful.
Cons: EXTREMELY loud on high! When I turn both of these suckers on high it sounds like a jet engine powering up for take off.
Overall Review: I have two of these and two of its bigger brother (120mm Smart fan) and they take up four slots in the back of my case. And you have a wire for the power (4pin converter) and a wire for the speed control for each fan!!! But this was easily fixable, i bought a vantec 4 fan controller and 12" 3 pin fan extendor wires, cleaned up the wire clutter and made it easily adjustable and accesible for the fan speed
CHEAP!!!
Pros: bright, thats about it. Oh wait it comes with on/off switch.
Cons: After a week one went dim on me then the next week it died completely. then after a month the other one just blew up! the little tube busted! guess i got too hot. but they are really really really cheap. so find something else.
Overall Review: im only buying another one so i can put the broken ones in the case and get an rma on it. so easy way around the cheapness, just keep buying a new one swap the lights and RMA it.
Woled.... Kinda
Pros: Good quite drive, very fast.
Cons: It says 80G on the drive, and i know most drives are usually 10-20G's less than what it says, but mine only has 32G showing.
Excelent Product
Pros: Wonderful Cooling Fan and Heatsink. My Intel Pentium 4 HT Extreme ran at about 150* F but on overclocked at 3.8GhZ it was at about 170* which is near frying temperatures. Now with this new fan it runs at about 70* F idle and 120* overclocked at 4.0GhZ.
Cons: A little heavy.
Overall Review: Does the job, and a good job at that. Looks cool. WOuld be nice if it came with a choice of three different LED's with a transparent fan.
Very good for the price
Pros: Excelent powersupply. Not too many problems. Powers my D865PERL Intel Mobo, Intel Pentium 4 HT Extreme CPU 3.6 GhZ, 2 CD/DVD-R/RW roms IDE, 2 Thermaltake 120mm Smart fans, 2 80mm Thermaltake smartfans, Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 Ultra, Thermaltake Typhoon CPU cooling fan, 3 UV light tubes (12"), 2 Hard Drives IDE (120gb and 250gb), and 1 Blue Cold Cathode light.
Cons: one of the four pin connectors, the metal contacts were loose fitting to other devices, occasionally caused a volt spike, fortunately my mobo has active monitoring and detected it. But this little problem caused no damage and was easily fixable.
Overall Review: could have one or two more 4 pin connectors. And 4 pin connectors could be spaced a little further apart
