Scythe SY1225SL12L 120mm "Slipstream" Case Fan

Pros: Good fan, quiet, moves a lot of air. Very sturdy design.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: If you can afford any of their line, they are amazingly quality products. Buy them.

Pros: It is silent as the night is black.

Cons: It moves a modicum of air, but this compromise I understood before I esteemed to bring it into my home!

Overall Review: Ye who find that it does not move great sums of sky and wind as a furious tempest are beholden to what is written, the accuracy of its descriptor is without question, if ye expect a silent gale then who shall appear as a fool? Thee and thine alone, puerile sap!

Pros: Good airflow and extremely quiet.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I have read some reviews expressing dissatisfaction with the airflow. With a cleanly wired case and a well planned air-path this fan moves as much air as I could imagine ever requiring. Plan you air-path well. Have all of your fans moving air from front to back and avoid side fans unless there is an air duck to channel it directly toward an upward facing CPU fan or out the back. It is also fine if the side fan feeds its own air-path and is blocked off from the main front to back flow. This is the case with some Lian-Li enclosures and is used to cool the drives, in from the side and out the back. Also the rear exhaust fan should be drawing hot air from the CPU heatsink. If the intake side of the exhaust and CPU fans are very close, they will both move less air. I used a Scythe Katana 3 for one build because it put the fan and heatsink at about 20 degrees off perpendicular with the mainboard. This way the exhaust of the CPU fan entered the inlet of the case exhaust fan.

Pros: This is the second quietest fan on Newegg after the 500RPM version. If you go much below 500RPM you're really not creating any airflow to speak of, and this fan undervolts to about 400RPM at 5V. The unique shape of the fan's blades seems effective. Comes with a 3-pin connector and a molex adapter, which is preferred versus both connections hardwired on the same line (it's not like you'd use both at once).

Cons: n/a

Overall Review: I received this free from Newegg after my case arrived with a DOA fan. Newegg realizes that the cost of shipping would far outweigh the value of the fan and also that this burden shouldn't lay on the customer - way to go Newegg!

Pros: Superb Fans. I'm using 2 of these in my Corsair Carbide 500R case and one in my Apex MI-100 Mini-ITX. They are so quiet and so far, for almost a year, no issues. Construction feels very strong, not cheap.

Cons: Non

Overall Review: If you need a very quiet case fan which puts out a decent amount of air go for these you won't regret it.

Pros: nearly silent - I have 4 of these fans over two 120mm radiators in one case, and they are silent unless you put your ear up to them. good airflow - a decent amount of wind is pushed by these fans.

Cons: The airflow clearly isn't as much as the specs say, but it's plenty as long as you don't need a tornado in your case.

Overall Review: Hands down, these are the best fans on newegg if you have water cooling and you want a practically silent loop. I'm buying 4 more after I write this review.

Pros: A nice, quiet 120 mm case fan. Pulls in air or pushes it out. Doesn't have LEDs.

Cons: None

Pros: Bought 3 and all are quieter than the CPU Fan and the pre-existing antec case fans in my Antec 300 case. already had 2 case fans and with 3 more (2 front, 1 side), the computer runs great. It's very quiet. The fans were solid solid solid. Would buy again. I could not hear the fans when holding my ears 2 feet from the case.

Cons: Wish the screws were black as they now stick out a bit on the side of my black Antec case for the side vent.

Overall Review: The scythe label on the center of the fan faces the direction the wind pushes towards. So when I installed these fans,
