hawaiian_geek 0 Posted May 5, 2009 I see this is a new 120mm fan that also comes in Red and Green LED. Does it really push 90 cfm? If so then I'd consider making a purchase of them for my CM 590 & 690 case as well as using them for builds that I do for customers. I'd appreciate any CM rep who could reply to my question. Thanks in advance! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icejon 0 Posted May 5, 2009 Yes according to the spec it pushes 69.99-90cfm. We use a narrow hub with sickle shaped special blades. The 90 CFM will be achieved in the most ideal conditions using 2000rpm +/-10%. Try one for yourself, it really blows harder than all the LED fans on the market. Compared to some non LED but high RPM fans from one of our Japanese competitors it is neck and neck, though our solutions has a slightly different aural quality because of our sleeve design.

nielyee 0 Posted May 5, 2009 I have one of these busters and i really must say that they push more air than any standard non-led fans out there. Most of the time, i can achieve about 1920 RPM and have a CFM of 82.6. It's really good and you'll be surprised with the results. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InspectahACE 0 Posted May 5, 2009 Ideal would be, nothing blocking it's airflow(intake & outtake)..least to me anyway. And I would imagine a new motOr would make it different if that's the case. And for $3 more, are you that worried about the blades ? lol...I'm just glad they came out so i can switch out the Red ones in my V10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bobfig 0 Posted May 5, 2009 im not worried about the blades. its just not physically possible to push the same amount CFM's with the same blades spinning the same speed even with different moter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icejon 0 Posted May 6, 2009 im not worried about the blades. its just not physically possible to push the same amount CFM's with the same blades spinning the same speed even with different moter. Actually the top fan is 800-1800RPM the spec isn't exactly right. This sort of fan is used on a CPU cooler like a Hyper Z600 or a Vigor Monsoon III. The bottom fan R4-L2R-20AC-GP is similar but better. It is a R4 series fan like the top fan meaning they share the same blade design in general, but with significant changes. First it is 2000RPM and we eliminated the speed limiter. We also increased the input voltage. Both of these contribute to higher specs with increased output. They are both great fans, hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VALKYRIE 11 Posted June 22, 2009 The fan that was with my Hper 212 ( I bought two years ago ) have the specifications showed below Fan Dimension (W / H / D) 120 x 120 x 25 mm Voltage 12VDC Current (Ampere) 0.37A Fan Speed 2000 R.P.M.

The specs are really 1800 RPM/69.69 CFM/19 DBA. The R4 series 120mm fans mentioned in the OP are 2000 RPM/90 CFM/23 DBA. And yes those fans are awesome (the 90 CFM ones). I have five of them, soon to be 8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
