The ultimate in airflow to noise ratio, iXtrema Pro Quiet Fans are the only fans in the industry to be designed with silence and optimal airflow in mind. Smaller, domed motor hub, larger, more dramatic fan blade sweep area, no other fans on the market come even close in performance!

The new Fluid Dynamic Bearings offer better fan life, don't burn up lubricant, and run quieter. One symptom of the note is that the bearing fluid becomes less viscous during disuse, so the fan may run slowly before it is properly warmed up. Regular usage will avoid this problem.

Foward Sweeping Fan Blades
The forward sweeping fan blade design increases static pressure compared to other silent fans and offers better airflow in areas where ventilation is restricted.





Reduced Motor Size
The reduced motor size and conical shape allows for the largest blade surface area of any fan and improves aerodynamics compared to the cylindrical dead-spot of other silent fans.





Rubber Fan Mounts
The silicone-composite fan mounts dampen motor vibration and prevents resonance or so-called "case rattle" caused when fan vibrations reaches the chassis.





Power Connector Converter
The included power connector converter cable lets the user choose to use either standard 4-pin power supply connectors or the 3-pin RPM monitoring capable fan connectors.

These fans are great the day you get them, but they don''t last. Bought a set last year around this time, and I''m already replacing them because they''re now louder than every other fan in my case. Went with Sythe fans instead.

Bought two of these fans about a year ago, and they are both failing right now. Also agree with another reviewer that there is not much air flow. Will not buy these fans again.

This thing really is silent, I have three installed and barely hear them. However, they push far less than 72 CFM from what I''ve noticed. I get more air coming out of my PSU than these fans. I also would''ve given these things at least a 3 or 4 if one hadn''t died within a month and the second one started acting up. I regret buying these; for $21, you''d expect something great, but you wont find it here sadly.

Great airflow and cooling, but it''s not even closed to 14dBA. Maybe it''s just be case, but compared to my TT Big Typhoon CPU cooler, which has a range of 16-24dBA, the SilenX fan is about the same noise as the CPU fan on full (24dBA). With that said, it gives great cooling. Even with the CPU fan on minimum, three of these fans in the case gives me a reading of 30C/22C on my X6800, compared 38C/33C with the same number of stock fans. The total noise level is maybe 3-5dBA more, though it is significant for my ears. I don''t know, maybe I can get used to it, but I might try the 11dBA''s.

Very quiet, good airflow but both fans failed within 4 months. I too had a leaker that spewed on the mobo.
