I got my EKs

Just a quick Q about these though
It looks like they have spaces for four 5mm leds around the fan housing. Is that right or am I hallucinating??!?

They do indeed.

I wrote a review of the FQ121, feel free to ask if you want to read it.

Thanks.

I would love to see it.

rjk · 30 Jan 2015 at 08:50

in theory, this should perform the same as the standard FQ121 at max speed.

Eurgh, been having a few issues with the server, it works perfectly fine for me, but I've heard the odd random cutout. Try again if possible :/

Thanks, I'll look into that and try and see what can be done. Oddly it works perfectly fine for me in Firefox, Chrome and Opera.

must be something in my firefox as it works under IE.

The big question is: Can you disassemble like the gentle typhoons?

Yes see op

The fan blades can be easily removed from the fan motor

You really shouldn't dismantle the GTs, the bearing is set carefully on a balance so odds are likely you will upset it. It may have an effect on performance and longevity.

I disassembled to use a die on the blades and they ran just as silent for over a year, then i switched rigs so i don't know about further longevity.

at last they are here, all we need now is some reviews against the ek ones.

rjk · 31 Jan 2015 at 10:38

you can remove the blades on these fairly easily.

RJK how do these compair to corsair sp fans?

MrMarvelous · 31 Jan 2015 at 18:13

Would this be O.K for a H80? I have two of the stock fans that came with it in push/pull, wondering if this might be a better solution?
