That may have been an error, As a case fan? Gentle typhoons aren't great as case fans, they're one of the best rad fans

fans a fan to me,lol. has high flow so cant really see the difference. Only gonna use it as a rear exhaust. Will no doubt be better than my crap CM one now.

EDIT

may well be but dont say that in description as i thought so yeah a fans a fan lol, u guys are just all too particular data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Sorry I have to disagree with you there. If you quantify "High flow" then the Scythe GT AP15's are low in comparison to other cheaper options.

Arctic F12 PWM
Air Flow F12: 74 CFM / 125.1 m3/h
£4.39
Arctic F12 PWM Case Fan - 120mm

Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 1850 RPM
Air Flow at full speed (12V), CFM ±10% 58.0
£14.98

Scythe Gentle Typhoon 120mm 1850 RPM - 3 Pin

High Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) fans for an exhaust or intake matters as it has to deal with shifting the highest amount of air possible with no restrictions from fans or heatsinks. Creating static pressure is what the Scythe AP15's are excellent at doing. They will move air, but not more than an F12 as an example which is 3 times cheaper.

Cancel that order and get a noctua in its place data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Hmm still more than my old, way more. Should say that in description about more suited to rads/coolers and would have looked at others. Cant expect as all to know ins n outs of major geek stuff data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Cant cancel now so it'll do.

Aye I wouldn't have known without the water cooling guys off heres knowledge, loosely talking; the low rpm (and by extension lower cfm) is something to keep an eye out for in the future as more suited for rads data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

You'd think that the F12 because of the price is crap, but it's not. I have one blowing air over the HD's. It shifts loads of air and is "quiet" data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Yeah cheers spose was more a ooh looks good click n buydata:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
If had scrolled down page and looked at others from Scythe would have seen "case" mentioned.
Pretty sure my old coolermaster was less than the 58cf/m but who knows.

we live n learn...

Yeah it's definitely the best lower priced fan going, arctic cooling are generally very good.

As long as your temps don't go up I wouldn't worry mate data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7
