Alpenföhn 120mm Wing Boost 2 Plus PWM Fan - Static Pressure!!

snips86x · 21 Jul 2014 at 21:21

I'm trying to find the static pressure for these fans and I'm having no such luck. OcUK website gives nothing as does the manufacturers website and other competitor sites.

These - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FG-018-AL&groupid=701&catid=2331&subcat=4

Does anyone know what static pressure these fans produce? I've emailed the manufacturer via their website, but still waiting for a reply.

Thanks in advance

No idea what the pressure is but they're good heat sink fans. Got several of the blue ones here, they're the same fan as what's supplied on the k2 cooler I own. The red clover models aren't great as they're slower at 1200 rpm max vs 1500 rpm max on the wingboosts.

I've got 2 here which were given to me by Parvum as samples. I'm thinking about getting a few more to match the rest of the fans I have - 5 in total as 1 of mine are blue and I need red.

I wouldn't be looking at the clover version as these so far have been solid. You think as 4x intake and 2x exhaust on a H100i, they'd be ok?

I think they'd do well on either. The k2 is quite a dense cooler and they worked well on it for me. I quite like the look of theese myself and price is good. I'm currently running a mix of 3 pin and PWM corsair af/sp's but these look a lot nicer. The wingboosts normally go for 14 quid a pop.

Thanks Setter, appreciate your input. I feel better about preferring these

Shame they cannot provide this statistic though.

I think I may go for them but anyone else using them who can comment?

Iirc Andybtsn has his corsair 540 with an AIO kitted out entirely in theese, may be in the 540 owners thread in project logs. Aside from that the most common place you'll see them is on k2's. They're the same as the front 120 on it. Just different colours. I got the red clovers, but like a prat didn't notice they were slower. All the rest are the 1500 rpm models.
