High hopes...
Beautiful, solid construction. At first glance you get everything you payed for, and maybe a bit more. I originally bought one to test it out. Set it in vertically, worked great for cooling off my hard drives. Waited two weeks, bought four others. Three to mount to the top exhaust of my CM ATCS 840, one other for the other spot next to the hard drives. Only 2 of them have survived the past year, so, 3 stars. Apparently, placing these in the horizontal position does something to their bearings. One stopped completely, one started making grating noises, one started rattling and could never spin up totally. HOWEVER, once these fans were removed from the case and placed in a vertical position, they ran perfectly. Also, they run louder than the specs say. As long as you don''t buy them for any horizontal application, you''ll be perfectly well satisfied, because they definitely move a lot of air.

Impressive
I actually bought the 4.8g tube, but it won''t let me place a review there. . . Regardless, simply replacing the TIM on the stock heatsink that comes with a retail i7 920 with this wonderful diamond compound dropped my temps by approx. 10 degrees Celsius. Amazingly efficient, and easy to recommend to anyone else out there.
