Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Antec Cyclone Blower Case Fan for Any Expansion Slot
Customer Review: Great Fan, Great Price, Read this before buying
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought this fan to cool a Dell StudioXPS 9000. You can hear the fan a little bit but it's not annoying at all and moves quite a bit of air. The fan is a little bit loose in the slot but nothing to really be concerned about. If the brackets in your computer are the screw-down type the fan won't be loose at all.
The cord from the fan is about 8" long and may not reach your power plugs: you may need a short extension cable. If you have a recent machine with SATA connectors you will need a SATA to Molex adapter which you can buy here on Amazon. This fan has the Molex older style power connectors.
My machine has a raid controller and the battery on it was overheating. I bought this fan to cool it down and it worked perfect.
Customer Review: Keep it cool!
Summary: 5 Stars
This fan is a rock-solid performer and although you might hear some fan bearing noise from a cold boot, it goes away very quickly. I added this fan to my system because when I upgraded the video card from the stock AGP nVidia FX5200 to an AGP nVidia 7600GS I watched my PC's internal temperature jump up about 10 degrees farenheight in just general use (games make it run even hotter). I mounted it in the slot right beneath the video card and putting my hand by the exhaust I can almost always feel warm (sometimes hot) air blowing out. Easy to install and it takes one 4-pin (Molex) power connector. A must-have in my book if your rig runs hot and MUCH cheaper than those water-cooled systems!Customer Review: Cheapest around, and name brand!
Summary: 5 Stars
Antec is a name brand, possibly the best in cooling and cases, and this was the cheapest available. So it was perfect. I have this little thing below my wireless card (I have a micro board so no space to put it in between the wireless card and the the GPU without it starving the GPU for air) It does work, dropped the temp in my case by around a degree, I just think its a cool idea to have a designated exhaust fan the channels air directly out. If you have the space, I would definitely recommend this fan, plugs in to a simple four pin connector and just screws right into the case, doesn't even go into the motherboard. When screwed in its extremely stable like part of the case.
Customer Review: Slot cooler for GPU's
Summary: 5 Stars
This slot case blower is an effective, low cost solution to extend the life of your GPU or video card that doesn't
have a fan for active cooling, and a heat sink for passive convection cooling. Power is inline from the PSU molex.
Installation is a snap in any case place it in the slot next to your video card heatsink. There should be sufficient clearance unless your heatsink stands tall and extends into the area of the adjacent slot. It does blow a fair amount of air CFM's you will feel it out of the rear of your case, and the heat drawn away from your GPU or video card exhausted out the rear. This will definitely extend the life of your video system! Highly recommended!
Customer Review: At $[price], this system cooler is a steal
Summary: 5 Stars
For those of you who work on your computer for extended hours, this system cooler is for you. Flowing at 42cfm(Cubic Feet per Minute), there is a lot of air to go around, literally!This easy-to-install Cyclone Blower can cool a very decent sized computer case. I have it installed in my full tower case, and this fan can pack a punch against heat! I noticed a drop in temperature by 4 degrees. That's enough to combat deadly heat!
I think it is definately worth it to purchase this item and place one in each computer.
You can place this sucker right below your video card if you are a gamer(that video card can heat up!).
