which is why reddit is calling bs. When do the other reviews drop?

so reddit is saying that no way this review was unbiased, that igor has taken money etc.. in the past. Any truth in this? I am tempted to see how these perform as case fans to upgrade the Arctic P12s.
hmm, modmymods has them coming out in a few months and 10% cancel fee. I'll wait for reviews
"Alphacool Apex Fans Now Available for Pre-Order
Estimated Ship Date: Late 2023 / Early 2024
*Please note: Any cancelled pre-orders will be subject to a 10% cancellation fee*"
I'd buy alpaca-cool stuff, as long as it doesn't have llamas.Heh, I saw the title again, "Alpacool" and read it as Alpaca-cool.

i've used these in the past on an external radiator and don't think they effect airflow much if at allHow much does the grill effect air flow and noise?
Basically its a sham. Quiet but doesn't match the a12x25 in cooling.Cliffs son
i use the P12 PWM PST CO's (and P14's) the CO being Continuous Operation which are made to last a lot longer and knock on wood but have had them since 2019 and haven't had any problems. i think it's well worth the extra couple bucks for the better bearing.figures! My arctic p12s are getting loud as fuck btw. They are a few years old, do they need only last so long? I could try to replace the 3 intakes I have with noctua a12x25s. Would love to try p12 max, but i hear the QA is terrible on them
whats better: noctua a12x25 or gentle typhoons
The price was right, but the P12's are definitely not the best fans out there. Good value/performance for the money? Absolutely. But I thought the sound profile of these fans really suck when they get going.figures! My arctic p12s are getting loud as fuck btw. They are a few years old, do they need only last so long?

Guess it gets subjective on what determines "best fan".The price was right, but the P12's are definitely not the best fans out there. Good value/performance for the money? Absolutely. But I thought the sound profile of these fans really suck when they get going.
Those Noctua Industrials can give delta fans a run for their moneyGuess it gets subjective on what determines "best fan".
A delta server fan will smoke any noctua product.
Even the 6000+ rpm ones?Those Noctua Industrials can give delta fans a run for their money
Depends on the 6000rpm delta. The 60mm 6000 rpm models will be less performant that the 140 noctua industrial. The largest high speed Deltas I remember seeing were these 190cfm 4100rpm 120mm fans ( https://www.performance-pcs.com/fan...he-cf00-case-fan-sleeved-afb1212she-cf00.html ) but they haven’t been in stock forever and I’m not sure they are still being made. The noctua industrial 140mm are 160cfm at 3000 rpm, so I’d say that’s in the same general ballpark if the deltas are still being made.Even the 6000+ rpm ones?

This is weird. Igor has a long history of being reliable. Did he sell out?

I don't understand how experienced people think they can get away with it. Everything comes out eventually in this industry
I’m using one of the 3000 rpm ones as an exhaust in my case. If I crank it up to 100%, it notably increases the amount of air being sucked into the Rads, and I’ve got both my rads running in push / pull!The 3000 ones, yeah. Those are crazy. They are also very very loud. I have lost skin to them.
Just had a chance to watch that.
Looks like der8auer pretty much completely disproved everything Igor said.
I mean, it looked too good to be true when I read Igor's results, and when something looks too good to be true, it usually is, but coming from Igor I guess I was willing to suspend disbelief.

I'd hate to have a part in ruining the reputation of a long term member of the PC review community, but Igor has some explaining to do. He needs to reproduce his results in a controlled fashion or explain how he messed up and apologize, or his time as a reliable source in the industry is over.
