Amazing

COUGAR CF-V12HB Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing (Fluid) 300,000 Hours 12CM Silent Cooling Fan (Black)
COUGAR CF-V12HB Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing (Fluid) 300,000 Hours 12CM Silent Cooling Fan (Black)

Pros: I have only had this fan one day but I have to say that I am very impressed so far. I run my fans off of the motherboard's PWM and I have a fan controller. Other fans I have used on the fan controller have given a bit of a motor tick. This fan though gives no sound except the air that it is pushing. Some thing goes for the motherboard connection. I have only had these for a day and will try to review again down the road but so far I am impressed and very hopeful.

Cons: A little pricey for a fan but I guess you get what you pay for.

Plenty of Power

Pros: Lots of connections Got it for a good price Plenty of Power for Graphics Cards

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Was a little worried that it would be DOA but I lucked out on this and it works great.

Pretty Good

6-Channel Fan Controller
6-Channel Fan Controller

Pros: Allows addition of 6 fans without motherboard

Cons: Lights are pretty bright

Overall Review: May be a can but might be a special case. I have 4 CoolerMaster fans plugged into this and there is extra noise that comes from the fans. When the CM fans are plugged into the Motherboard no extra noise is produced. On top of that there are two fans that came with the case that are plugged into the controller and make no extra noise. So I'm thinking its just a special case that the combination of fans and this controller.

Great Price

COOLER MASTER R4-S2S-124K-GP Silent Case Fan (4-Pack)

Pros: Can't beat paying about $10 for 4 case fans. Push a good amount of air.

Cons: Look at other thoughts

Overall Review: Didn't know if this should be listed as a con because it may not be the fans fault. I use a logisys 6 channel fan controller and when these fans are plugged in there is an extra noise that comes from the fan. But when these fans are plugged into the Motherboard no extra noise is created just the fan's usually spinning noise. Also when the fans that came with the case are plugged into the controller no extra noise comes from those. So it may be the fan or may be the controller or just the combination. Nothing to take an egg away for.

Great

Pros: Got this case for around $80 and I have to say it is very nice. It fits an ATX board very well and has some cable management options. There are also plenty of spots for you to put fans and plenty of both internal and external drive bays.

Cons: none so far

Overall Review: I will say that with it having a bottom mounted PSU you may want to get a cable extension for you 4+4 mother board power connecter. In my case the 20+4 connector was able to wrap behind through the cable management and plug in fine.
