I love that fan

Light blue line in all the high speed fan graphs that just owns everything when it comes to raw performance....not even THAT loud all things considered....

Also, I'd like to point out that the Delta 1212EHE suffered on the CPU test because its 11 (or 13, I forget) diffuser blades block a fairly significant amount of (HSF) radiator area....or at least that's the only rationale I can think of.
