Haha, should be out soon!! Maybe by end of this month.

And the part about the softening of the rubber, it wouldnt happen unless u are running in continuously at high temps. But replacements will be given for defects as a result of non-human errors. :D:D

The M12-P has the best static pressure among the 3. But the PL2 performs as well as the Noctua NF-P12, though having a lower static pressure
hmm, how do u measure? this one vs scythe gentle typhoon which one better for rads?

Haha, thanks :) Hope u enjoyed the review :D:D

the best model, XXXXXXXXX-15 58.3 cfm 1850rpm

I would say getting a fan with a higher static pressure and Airflow would be the best.

Can take reference to this http://www.comairrotron.com/airflow_note.shtml

Wa, sadly no bling bling. Haha, Think this company like Noctua, not so much on bling but more on performance and silence. Haha

I don't trust fans with translucent blades :mad: They've been known to rattle. no proper matt black ones? (S-Flex style)

Haha, according to their website all their blades are translucent de. And its the bearing of the blades that cause the fans to rattle. But so far i tested the few fans, no such issue on them.

Would be good if a performance fan (i.e excalibur or sflex g) is included in the review so we can know how it actually stands :) I understand there's P12... but P12... lol

very nice detailed review, believe that u have put in quite a lot of effort n da time spent in doing all these testing n writing... ;)

hmm i kind of like XL2 design, cause of da fan blade color...

but if i were to buy, i would definitely get M12-P, cause im more towards performance rather than noise.
