Is that what they're doing with the latest generation of LCD TV's? I expect to get one in the next half year or so, and I've noticed the latest batch of 32-37" 1080p's are showing some pretty amazing numbers, yet somehow cheaper than the last generation... Bah. That would explain a few things.
Yes I am :yepp:Quote:

but to be fair, that cheap price is actually the saving grace. You cannot accuse the fan of being a SilenX (over priced by virtue of crazy specs)
At $10SGD, I suppose its a decent fan with quite abit of bling for people not too fussy over performance and noise.
If it had been marketed at the low end bling market, I would say its a pretty decent deal
There are only two performance measures on a fan, just like a pump...Quote:

Static Pressure (No Air Flow) - The box says we have 3.04mm of static pressure. You can convert that to inches of water using any pressure converting program. The conversion to inches of water is .119" H20.
Per the testing I had done before .119" H20 is not that good, it's better than a medium speed yate loon, but worse than TT thunderblade at 1850RPM, so I can only assume the fan blades have been optimized for open air.
Especially when you compare it to a 38mm fan like the ultra kaze at 2000RPM has nearly .18" vs .119".
I recently measured nearly a 25% gain using two fans in push/pull vs just pull alone on a radiator, and running two fans in this setup simply "nearly" doubles the amount of static pressure, it doesn't add more maximum air flow. So this push/pull test seems to indicate static pressure is really important.
Vapors recent testing on the slipstreams also shows you how lack of static pressure makes the fans actual CFM output through a radiator fall significantly.
Anyhow, it looks like a nice fan, but by the looks of the steep blade angle I think it's a little better optimized for open air conditions like intakes/exhaust on a case.
Also, if its like its 2500rpm brother it aint that silent acording to Vapor. Even undervolted its still ticks.
high RPM = high dBA
tight fan blade gap = high dBA
low dBA advertisement = high dBA
LED fan = high dBA (normally, to cope up the cost)
conclusion = obviously high dBA
lets just put it this way guys, they are 19dBA through noise cancelling headphones; and they are 90 cfm with a windowfan behind them :rofl::rofl::rofl:
Is this that attractive that its worth it?

Dang, someone beat me but I'm going to say it anyway.
They can totally get to 19dB...
with 30dB of attenuation.
MpG for your benefit

static or ANSI is the best spec for contrast

enjoy the readings sorry its off topic
