Silverstone SUSCOOL 121

Silverstone claims they are "ultraquiet." Recognizing that this is a thermally controlled fan, I'm interested, but can't find anything here or elsewhere evaluating the real world performance of these things. Anyone have any experience with these?

We have already submitted this fan to SilentPCReview for review a while ago.

Hey Mike, when will we see an article on our SUSCOOL fans?? :)

Damn they look good for pressure at low rpm... Got a nice look to it too, need that review already :)

usable as a cpu fan

Could I use one of those with an Asus Triton 75 to cool my AMD X2 5600+? or should I use the Schyte S-Flex 120? (medium / 1200rpm)

I have this fan currently as a casefan and it's very silent. (I use the built in thermal monitoring as my motherboard supports only one Cool n' Quiet enabled fan, and that is the CPU fan).

I use a Sharkoon "Silent" Eagle CPU Cooler now but I find it too loud.

I do not have the resources to perform dB(A) measurments of the fan, but I've got a Sharkoon System Fan S 80x80x25 and a Antec TriCool 80mm DBB, and the Suscool 120 is easily the most quiet of all.

But does it push enough air to keep the AMD cooled, ASUS recommends an 45CFM fan... :S

P.S. I would also like a review of this fan.

I went ahead and bought one of these and have been pleased. It is definitely more quiet than the 100mm my Katana 2.

I'm looking forward to a review of this fan as well. Looks very promising for a thermally controlled fan. Most other models aren't optimized for low rpm or are made out of clear plastic (WHYY??).
