what's going on guys you're watching Jays two cents and if you can't tell by taking a look at the nerd table Coolermaster has sent us a lot of goodies to take a look at and specifically today we are going to look at the cooler master jet flow 120 high-performance LED fans these are brand new on the market and they're quite the hype and we're going to see if they live up to the cooler master man taking a look at the packaging here cooler master definitely spared no expense when it comes to the packaging they are very interested in presenting the fan to you with the same type of quality in the box as they put into the fan because a company that puts effort into their packaging has a lot of pride in their product it's even got a little window here that opens up with product information you can see the fan right through the window so you know exactly what you're getting this isn't a white version it's an LED with a white LED and it is available in red blue white and they call this a dark I think that means there's no LED there's quite a bit of technology in this fan though taking a look at the back of the box here we'll go ahead and go over some specs it's a like I mentioned this is the white version and it is an 800 to a 2,000 rpm fan now this is a high airflow optimized fan so obviously with the 2,000 rpm you can get a lot of airflow but you probably get a lot of noise with it too and we'll find that out together it is a pwm fan so it does use pulse width modulation from your CPU to ramp up and slow down if you have it plugged into pwm headers but you can also use it with a three pin or three pin to molex adaptor hooked up directly to your power supply or the motherboard it does advertise 95 CFM flow rate now obviously that's going to be at 2,000 rpms but as you slow down because of the blade design they're advertising that you don't sacrifice a lot of airflow it's a very linear curve whereas some fans have a very steep curve when it comes to CFM but once the RPMs drop off so does the sleep CFM just very sharpened these are advertising if you look at the chart on the inside though a very linear flow rate which is pretty good it does advertise 2.72 MMH - Oh of static pressure so it is a little bit lower than some of the other fans that we've taken a look at here but we are going to see exactly how these things perform maybe we'll stick them up against a radiator in another view of video it is using the palm bearing what they call their fourth generation bearing is a poly X methylene polyoxymethylene I'm assuming it's a type of plastic why yes palm actually is a type of plastic it is polyoxymethylene to be exact let's go ahead and take a moment just to talk about the palm design before we continue with the review the palm design is very rigid in its very abrasion proof what it does is it reduces vibration and noise and it results in a hundred and sixty thousand hours of life on this fan this is the first fan on the market to use this bearing design and it's got a couple of unique features there's no oil leakage and it's a self lubricating bearing which means that you no longer have to replace any of the fan fluid inside of your your fan most people may not have realized that their fans actually have fluid inside of them causing lubrication inside the motor so it gives a very long-lasting life to the fan 160,000 hours it's going to clearly outlive most of the components in your computer it'll be time to upgrade the computer before you're replacing this fan it also causes a much quieter fan motor noise and it's got very high tolerance and it's very precision so you're not going to have any play in the fan it's I'm gonna be wobbling around the palm bearing is actually very impressive let's continue okay so let's go ahead and dive inside the package here right off the bat I can see that it is sleeved let's set that aside and so you have your metal screws right here which is what is cool about that is this fan I've already taken a look at this fan and they have definitely spared absolutely no expense when it comes to the design of not only the fan blade in the motor but everything else around the fan a lot of companies will just use cheap plastic shrouds for their fans and they don't put a lot of design effort into the shroud but this this is absolutely it's actually quite heavy all four of these corners as you can see here or bolted on to the fan shroud and they are made entirely of rubber so you've got an entirely rubber mounting mechanism here that is going to reduce vibration and sound and inside of that rubber as you can see you actually have a threaded screw hole so you know Knowle are gonna have to deal with possibly stripping out the plastic as you're cranking down your fan or you remove them and replace them a lot and move them around in your case or move them between cases these are threaded so these little fan screws are going to screw right on into that as you can see they will screw right on into there and they're actually a really really tight fit so we'll just set that aside one thing that I like is that they are sleeved and as mentioned they are pwm to have a four pin header here I I do wish you had given us more link though especially as cases you're getting bigger in with their mod stacker case that's just released on the 15th this link cables not going to cut it now they probably assume that you're going to end up using some sort of an extension cable if you were putting these in something more than a mid tower case and this would be very mid tower case friendly with this link but if you're using a big Tower like a 900 D over here or the mod tower this is just not going to cut it so keep that in mind if you have a long cable run that's that's going to be a bit lacking there but the quality of this fan is up totally amazing in the construction of it and if you look at the fin spacing on the fan you can see I can stick my finger all the way through the fan and not have to make it crooked I'm going straight through the fans to show you here we're going straight through the fan which is apparently the design that idea here is that instead of the air having to swoop around the blade and be scooped up the pressure of the air being pulled in because you know the air flow is going to follow but you know brothers and sisters they all want to follow each other so as Eric moves all they are around it wants to go to can move straight through the fan which gives you very directional airflow and it's a very unique design I mean there's no other fan on the market like this this is really neat okay so as I mentioned what comes in the box obviously is the fan itself 1600 rpm and 1200 rpm adapters and they are labeled as hot because the resistor in there does get quite hot as you slow down the fan so the first thing we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and power this up at 12 volts we're going to take a look at it and see how noisy it is and then we're going to check out the performance from men okay so here's 12 volts that is so that is pushing so much air I can't even get that to stand up oh it's because it's only big enough that this is like a helicopter I have a feeling that this thing would hover and to give you an idea of how much air this thing is blowing if you can hear me over it it's actually very it's actually very loud at 2,000 rpm if I turn this towards the mic hopefully that's picking it up that is insane Fessenden say my air I can still feel it it's like an air conditioner I can still feel that holy crap okay so if I can do this without cutting my fingers off I'm terrified right now this thing is going to cut my fingers off hopefully you can see this the LED unlike most LED fans where they're on the outside of the shroud this is actually quite cool this is like air conditioning I love this oh sorry okay um the LED is contained inside the hub and it's blowing outside around the fan because it's going through the blades is this is a really cool design it's very unique so unlike when you have an LED fan on the corners pointing down on the blades and you get those brighter lines that look like a like a star this is very uniform and that's I really like this design this is very cool but okay let's go ahead and get the adapters on who got terrified I'm gonna cut my fingers off careful okay so let's go ahead and put on these 1600 rpm and see what we've got here okay so that's the 1600 rpm as you can see that's still moving an awful lot of air it's still a little bit noisy though the motor itself isn't making any sound it sounds like what we're hearing though is actually the blades even 1600 rpm I feel like is much more airflow than anybody's going to need especially when you have multiples of these like you add a bunch of these in your case and you're running them at 12 volts oh my I couldn't even imagine and but the amount of airflow is insane Ekans I can still feel the air really this point that my mic there I but I have a dead cat on it basically hopefully you can hear the air believe that that is blowing that much air so let's do this before I put on the other adapter just turn that off as I have here just a piece of paper with tape on it and we're going to see just how that reacts to really that that's at sixteen sixteen hundred rpms I got like a flag just waving in the wind oh that much air going through there let's go ahead and try the silent mode the 1200 rpm now we're talking that is a very acceptable noise level but look at the amount of airflow coming through that fan still and that's actually not that noisy I point that wow I mean the amount of air I can feel just it's just this big wave of air all the way out to here at 1200 rpm at this low rpm and remember this can go all the way down to 800 rpm and I didn't say what the starting voltage was starting voltage on this is not listed here it takes four point eight watts though at 12 volts and it's a point four amp so you're going to want to keep that in mind it is a much higher wattage fan than some which will mean that you can't jumper as many of these off of a single header if you want to go that route okay now just for giggles let's go ahead and run 12 volt all right 12 volts incoming that is just sick what is it it is pushing so much air guys I cannot get it just it wants to fall over I cannot get it to stay up that is how much air it is actually turned into a propeller not a fan this thing will move an airplane so there you have it guys when it comes to fans the jet flow 120 is an amazing fan I love the led the amount of quality and craftsmanship that's gone into the creation of the housing for the fan and even the fact they've got teeny tiny little brackets here our support here for the motor that way you get maximum airflow out of these things if you're looking for a very versatile fan that moves a lot of air at low rpm but gives you the option to go high rpm if you want it long-lasting very acceptable noise ratio and just looks really cool you definitely don't want to pass up on the jet flow 120 s these are these are a great fan they really are if only they came in LED yellow then they might replace the Corsair fans I have in my case and even then these might make their way onto my lower radiator we'll just have to wait and save and if you've liked this product here from Coolermaster go and check out their website at coolermaster calm and as I showed them beginning this video we have more stuff from Coolermaster that we're going to be showing we're going to be putting these also on the 240m 120 millimeter all-in-one cooling unit we're gonna be checking out the V 700 power supply it's a gold rated platinum specified or platinum spec power supply and we are also going to be taking a look at the control rx mousepad that all of this has been taking place on and the N 600 mid tower case for less than 80 bucks behind me so guys as always if you've enjoyed this video you know what to do and I will see you guys in my next video and until then go and do something fun with your computer do something techie and tweet it to me down below I'll retweet the ones that I like I'll see you guys next time
