Features for Scythe S-FLEX™ 12cm Case Fan
Equipped with Genuine S-FDB* Bearing
This fan is equipped with genuine S-FDB (SONY Fluid Dynamic Bearing) made by SONY corporation.
Market Leading Low-Noise Level
S-FDB technology drastically eliminates the friction between the bearing and the shaft which makes this fan nearly inaudible to human ears. Additional suction magnet optimizes the magnetic force balance within the rotor to achieve the absolute silence. To further achieve the absolute silence, the fan is equipped with the Linear drive IC for reducing electromagnetic noise.
Outstanding Long Life of 150000 Hours
Patent Pending "S-FDB" structure allows the fan to last up to 150000 hours.
Anti-Shock Ability
Conventional ball bearing carries a point contacting structure for the rotation, which gives point supporting situations at dropping impact to damage ball bearing surface which could cause irregular noises. The S-FDB carries a surface contact mechanism for improved anti-shock structure, which is 5 times stronger than the conventional ball bearing.

I purchased 2 of the fans as intakes in my Antec 300. Thus far they have performed well, though I would expect no less after only 2 weeks of operation.

This fan pushes a lot of air and works great for circulating a case or on heat sinks which don't require much static pressure. This fan should virtually last forever so you shouldn't have to worry about replacing it for a few builds.

good fan for heat sink fan, great static pressure, kinda loud but does the job on a thermal right extreme 120.

Picked up this fan to add to my TRUE CPU cooler, to make up a push/pull setup, but wanted something to move a bit more air, so I replaced it shortly after.

Have two of these on my Thermalright Ultra 120 black edition hsf. They move a lot of air (1600 rpm) and are quiet. 1600 rpm seems to be the way to go for processor cooling. These have high static pressure and are thus excellent for heatsink cooling. Good ball bearing rated for long life. Excellent choice.

Rated for very long life. High airflow for minimal noise. Fairly expensive and dull looking for those with a side panel case. Works well with my Thermalright Ultra Extreme.

Overall this is a good fan, I cant complain, but I am not impressed with the noise the bearing makes. Maybe most cant hear it, but unfortunately I can and it is loud. Has a high pitch wine to my ear. I replaced the fan in the event that it was a bad fan (happens with the best) but no change. I compared this to another fan with the same airflow and the other fan was far quieter. However, this fan is still good, and the lifespan makes it worthy.

Great fan with good airflow. Comes with screws and 3pin to 4pin adapter. Keeps at the case/cpu nice and cool without *too* much noise.

These things rock! I have a dozen of them now on all of my loops and they keep everything nice and cool while being quieter than any of my stock cases fans!

The is the best fan you can get if you want ultimate airflow. If noise is an issue, then don't buy this. This thing is not a jet engine but can put out a fair bit of noise. At 1600rpm that is expected. The the air is pumps out is unrivaled. If you are overclocking on air and want a super cool pc,, get this fan. Price is definitely worth it. I have this on a fan controller, so i can spin it down to 800rpm when i dont need the cooling and then max it out while im gaming.
