140mm Fan Testing on a HWlabs SR1 Radiator Round 7

[Martinm210]

NZXT 140

Another fan sponsored by SeeingRed...thanks!!

I picked this one when SeeingRed was looking to sponsor most of the 140s, I figured with the high blade count, it would do really well. Unfortunately, I think the motor on this one is a bit whiny. It's not really strong, but there is a little motor noise throughout. Noise level turned out higher than average at the low RPM area, to about average at the high end. Range was good, electrical efficient not bad (about 2.5 watts), and CFM per RPM was a fair amount better the the yate SM.

Gentle Typhoon AP-15 + BGears 120>140mm Adapter

Special thanks to Vapor for sponsoring the fan as well as the adapter...thanks!!

NOTES


Still absorbing this, but the GT on the adapter did very well. This is of coarse a bit apples to oranges with the adapter and possibly some shroud benefits/vibration isolation, so take it with that in mind. I will look into testing a couple of the top 140's with a shroud to check this later...
