one of our salesmen ordered a bunch of these in. IMHO, they suck. If you have a good sized video card (physical, not memory), then they block the airflow that is supposed to be blowing on the cpu. However, if you need to cool your vid card, these are pretty good..
You have a valid point KoWind7, but think about it, if you have a couple of HDD and a couple of CD-Roms stuffed in your computer, those turbo fans will at least help break-up the heat pockets formed around the components. The more air circulation you have in the case the less heat build up will occur.
If you want a super cool system, just get an Addtronics 7896A server tower. It's got fans all over the place, and sounds like a jet engine. Combine it with a dual-fan CPU heatsink, and you'll never have to worry about a fan dying ever again.
