I sent one too.

Maybe it'd be easier if you set up Trust in the forums, Kul1, that way you can be sure the proper forum members are contacting you.

May just buy one to add my thoughts to the other three reviewers... will have a think about it

I just left a message on your facebook wall also :') I think were all wondering if someone else has claimed them sneakily and done us over ;D

Looking forward to hear you guys opinions on the fans. I'm always on the lookout for a quiet case fan as I'm really picky when it comes to noise.

Currently using 2 x Noiseblocker Black Silent Pros up front, but they don't appear to be putting out anywhere near what they claim. They are nice and quiet with their fluid dynamic bearings though.

I can at least say the 120MMs are silent as long as you mount them properly on rubber pins rather than bolting them to other stuff that can vibrate also.

I can ramp up my rubber pin mounted ones from my controller from off to 100% and not notice any additional noise.

As far as I can observe they shift as much air as the Noctuas, Akasa Vipers and stock Antec 900 case fans could. My 4.5GHz i7 with a Akasa Viper HSF (Now with BitFenix 120mm instead of the provided fan) idles at 25-35 and loads at 55-65 (depending on whether I am gaming or stress testing)

My 680 is no hotter than it was previously either since swapping to exclusive use of the BitFenix Spectres.
