PRODUCT INTRODUCTION

You have to keep that box cool. I mean, that's what it all boils down to. Not taking into account voltage irregularities, heat is the primary killer. The most common means of battling excessive heat is through case fans. You may think that all fans are created equally, but I'm here to report otherwise.

I had the privilege of reviewing a SilenX 400watt PSU a while back, and I just couldn't speak fondly enough about it. So when I found out that we had been shipped some of their 80mm fans, I jumped on the opportunity to review them.
