As far as cooling effectiveness is concerned, I can't complain. Under certain conditions, temps dropped almost 20°C over the stock Corsair fans. Also, airflow is sufficient that I only need to run 25 - 40% speed for practically full cooling effectiveness. Running the fans faster results in a higher frequency noise and somewhat increased noise but not significantly lower temperatures, until the CPU is under load, at which point there are gains to higher fan speeds. When both fans are on full, it sounds like a vacuum cleaner. When the fans are at a decent, reduced setting, they sound like a slightly smaller vacuum cleaner. According to my free decibel meter smartphone app, at approximately 27% the fans are running around 3300 RPM and producing ~71 decibels. At 100% the fans report 6000 RPM and measure up to ~77 decibels. The phone was placed on the ground ~1 foot from the side of the radiator with both fans installed on it, without the computer side panel, and the phone was not in any airstreams to influence the readings from the microphone. **Q: How many rpm is this fan?** A: I have my fans installed on a PWM connection to a computer motherboard and they tend to report below 6100 when run at 100%. Closer to 6050 RPM, with variations. **Q: what's a good fan controller to run 4 of these on a corsair h100i push pull config at max speed?** A: I've used rasbery pi for max speed. Intake/exhaust We custom make them if you have trouble. Message if interested. **Q: How can i power this on my pc? I cant find any pwm controllers that can handle the close to 50 watts this produces.** A: I've seen people make controllers for it with arduino or raspberry pi. You don't want to put this in a pc I wouldn't think, at least I've read you cannot directly connect it to one. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it pulls like a top-line vacuum cleaner *by K***. on October 10, 2015* - This is a POWERFUL fant!!! It surprised me the first time I fired it up.- I have to laugh at the complaints that it's "loud" - OF COURSE it's "loud", it's stronger than my *vacuum clean motor*. My Miele vacuum has a 100CFM capability - this is a 224CFM fan. So yeah, it pulls like a top-line vacuum cleaner, so it has a similar noise level. Although actually, it's *less* loud than my Miele vacuum cleaner. It's also pretty sturdy as far as I can tell. I was a little startled by the size of it when I took it out of the box - it is, most definitely, a full 120mm, might as well say 4.75", square, and 1.5" deep.- As shown in the photo, there is a sturdy braided protector over most of the wiring. It's designed to allow the wire to be bent around inside of a cabinet or case, yet protected in the area which is most likely to rub against other components. I will add additional covering, to the cords, since I actually got this to make myself a strong Fume'N'Dust Filter that I could fit on my lap desk, not using it inside of a computer.>>>EDITED ADDITION: I made a small case with a grid to hold the filter media ((dust filter material plus a charcoal filter)).I *finally* have a decent air filter for my wood- miniature and soldering work!- How I powered it:I got this, which is the Vols/AMps/Watts that the fan description specified it requires: http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B002QQ4UIE?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00>>>EDITED ADDITION:The adapter got pretty hot pretty quickly. So I'm wondering whether it would be advisable to get a stronger adapter?To plug it into the adapter, I had one of these on-hand:http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B9Y6W2?keywords=molex%204-pin%203-pin%20fan%20connector&qid=1444426115&ref_=sr_1_6&sr=8-6---- The fan's plug is 4-pin, but I don't know ow to attach "PWM" so all I did was plug in the small 3-pin male end; then I took the larger end, gently "squished" the positive/red-wire pin until it juuuust fit inside of the barrel plug, and slightly bent the negative/black-wire pin to contact the outside of the barrel plug. Then crossed my fingers, and plugged it it. And it actually worked!- At first, I though I was going to have to disassemble the fan plug and the adapter plug, but I only have to modify the Molex bit, whihc is the cheapest part, so I'm happy about that!- Well, now what I'll do is gently remove the pins from the housing, insert the positive "squished" end, remove the unneeded "hanging" end, and wrap with some electrical tape,then open-up the end of the negative so it wraps around the outside of the barrel plug, snipp off the pin, and tape that. Then more tape around the whole construct, and a cable tie to keep it snug.- I already have a "box" with a mesh for holding the filters and charcoal sheet etc. So it ought to work OK for this purpose.- And actually, as powerful as this fan is, I might find some new/additional uses for more of them, since I'm pretty handy t making things ;) ### ⭐ LOUD LOUD LOUD LOUD!! 100+ dB!! *by P***R on August 23, 2015* It does NOT come with a Molex to PWM adapter, you can NOT plug this fan into your motherboard because it will fry the board.. Basically, you will get a box with this fan wrapped in paper, that's all.. If you are installing into a computer, you will need an item like this.http://www.amazon.com/Phobya-Adapter-4Pin-Molex-30cm/dp/B004X2XBMAI finally got the correct adapter for this fan and installed it.. A MAJOR issue came up... This fan is louder than a swamp cooler and IMPOSSIBLE to stand the noise in a computer, unless a person is deaf. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Too powerful for a standard PC *by J***8 on January 7, 2016* An incredible fan but you must be warned now: It is not for a regular desktop PC. If you plug this fan into your motherboard and the board runs it at full speed, you will have created a PC vacuum. It will roar like a jet plane. It's simply too powerful! I purchased a fan controller (Kingwin 5 Channel Multi-Fan Controller with Individual LED FPX-005 Black on Amazon) and it works fine. The Kingwin controller is rated at 8 watts, but this fan can output like 36 watts. It doesn't appear to be harming the controller, but it can't run full throttle, which is good. If it was on a 5v line, it would be fine but the 12v, which is the only option with 4-pin fan sensored connectors, is really too much. Great for a server though! Make sure you get a fan guard too! This fan could chop carrots at full speed! Not something you want to bump with your knuckles.Featured in the photos are my old aluminum Sanyo Denki. It's over 14 years old and still runs flawlessly. As you can see, the new plastic version has improvements to the blades and case in order to provide effective cooling. Excellent design and fabrication. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/15350071-sanyo-denki-san-ace-120-3-0-amp-12-volt](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/15350071-sanyo-denki-san-ace-120-3-0-amp-12-volt) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
