> 3 dayI recently started hearing a fan whine coming from my cpu cooler fan. Being since its a old Dell xps 8700 with a i7 4790. I didnt want to buy a cpu cooler for it since its never given me a heat issue. I was already planning to clean out the old thermal paste on it and decided to purchase this. I had already swapped out the rear fan about 2 years back with a noctua 92mm fan to help with the noise and improve thermals. Happy to say you dont hear it at all and noticing my cpu idling a little bit cooler with the stock heatsink attached.

> 3 dayI bought this to replace the original fan in my Xaminer 64tb - This is the only approved replacement fan for Xaminer (as of 9/8/22). The original got progressively noisier over a period of several months until it failed completely.

> 3 dayGreat fan, and very quiet. I am using this as a replacement for a heatsink fan and it is whisper quiet while keeping things well cooled. One note, be careful if trying to use this with Dell (and possibly other OEMs), as Dell uses a thin 5 pin Motherboard connector that you will have to buy an adapter to get this to work with.

> 3 dayEssential component to a recent ITX build of mine (Fractal Ridge). You get what you pay for with Noctua - in this case, that means okay/good CFM at lower speeds while also yielding extremely quiet noise levels.

> 3 dayExcellent replacement for an OEM fan on IC-7300. Almost noiseless. Took a little work (see various websites), but worth the $, work, and time.
