Pretty Decent
Comment:
It does the job well. This fan replaced a 135mm PSU fan that failed prematurely. It' common for a low quality sleeve bearing to fail when mounted facing up next to a significant heat source. I did not have much of a choice when looking at 140mm...but this one is cheap, quiet and reliable, and pushes a good amount of air. though not advertised, it's design keeps it's sleeve-bearing relatively cooler too. |
it is just a fan but its really quiet and blows more air it seems than my other 140 top blower. one small detail that i liked is where the screws go in its not one solid hole strait through, theres a gap between the sides that was useful, doesnt matter which way its applied, the other side for the other screw holes can be used with a twisty tie, etc. to strap cables down to it around the edge of the fan mount. that may apply to other fans also, i dont know, but if your looking for cable management this fan helps with that in its own little way. havnt had it long enough to comment on its life span.
