 Maybe I have a bad copy but if not then over-ratedDec 30, 2011
By decapitor
At full speed my copy of this fan had a very audible whine to it. The blades themselves are designed well and the actual sound of moving air is pretty minimal, but the whine that it produced was very tonal and irritating. I plugged it into my motherboard fan header and turned it way down to around 400rpm and it's quiet now, but most fans are quiet at 400rpm... Maybe I got a bad copy, but if you google around you'll find that I'm not the only one to complain of this whine. Some suspect that early copies of this fan were better than the latest batches being produced. I don't know, but a lot of people on forums are praising this fan as being some sort of miracle fan that makes no noise and has the power of a tempest so the prices are high while supplies are low. If I had to do it again I wouldn't have overpaid for this fan when there are plenty of other good fans available at lower prices.
 Best Fans I've FoundJan 03, 2011
By Bondiablo
I tried MANY different fans attempting to achieve adequate cooling at a noise level I could tolerate and the Scythe Gentle Typhoons have been the best. The only other fans that came close were Yate Loon and Nexus Real Silent (which are really just rebadged Yate Loons at lower RPMs) but those are sleeve bearing, not ball bearing like the Scythe, so they tend not to last as long and aren't recommended in high heat applications like PSUs or mounting horizontally.

You CAN hear these fans, just not very well. And that's a good thing considering how much air they push. My i7-930 runs at 39°C idle, overclocked at 4.0GHz. And that's with two of these on a Corsair H50, turned to low speed with a Scythe Kaze-Q fan controller.

What can I say...they push a ton of air, and don't make a sound. Actually thinking about going passive heat sink on the vid card to make computer completely silent. And no, this isn't grandma's commodore 64. OCed i7 with 5850 vid card, and 12g of ram. All living very happily under 65 degrees.
