Enermax's new 120mm fans are colorful, and look nice, but how do they hold up in our torture testing?

You don't seem to specify where you mounted the fans, which is crucial information. Ideally I'd like to see them mounted to a 120mm rad to get an idea of how effective their static pressure is. It also eliminates any inefficiencies of case design.

It states quite clearly that they were mounted to a copper heat-pipe HSF assembly in an open case. Thus taking the case completely out of the equation.

Testing consisted of using each fan in turn on a copper heat-pipe cooler attached to the CPU, measuring idle and full load temps, with the case open. and I'm sure the reviewer would be happy to re test them on a LCS if you'd be so kind as to supply one. ;)

Thanks for the review and I like these fans ! sure they cost a bit more but would be a nice upgrade.A friend of mine previously recommend Enermax fans that were quite similar [ not sure if they were the exact model] so I may be inclined to check these out.
