Antec TrueQuiet fans
Hi
Just noticed some new fans from Antec, could they be replacements to their current Tri Cools?

Anybody have any experiences with these? Maybe a review would be in order?
Cheers

Re: Antec TrueQuiet fans
Thanks for posting -- they seem to have all the hallmarks of quiet fans: low RPM, lots of curved blades, curved motor support struts (so the trailing edges of the blades are not badly obstructed), and they add a new twist. They look like the mounting holes are made from soft(er) dampening material than the frame?

Re: Antec TrueQuiet fans
With the nine blades and small hub they remind me of Slipstreams. Looks like translucent plastic blades, though, which usually wobble a bit, right?
The 120mm high and low speeds sound pretty promising -- 600 and 1000 RPM!

Finally seem like a true effort,
I wonder if these will become standard for their cases.

Re: Antec TrueQuiet fans
Yes, the blades do look translucent which is not so good. On the other hand, the tips of the blades have ripples in them -- which may help, or not?

Doesn't seem to be any reviews around yet.
Any chance of SPCR getting a hold of some for a review!?

I think (more like hope or pray) this release calls for an updated 120mm SPCR roundup.
