I was looking to add couple fans to one of my overclocked computers. So I started looking online for prices but most importantly the quality of the fan. I only have 80MM holes in my case and I haven’t modded my case yet so I was going to stick with 80MM no matter what. After searching xoxide.com, coolerguys.com, and other places where I could find my ideal fan, I went to pctoys.com; they always seem to have an answer for my last minute wishes. So as usual, I started browsing through the isles, well actually pages and found the fan I was looking for or at least I thought I did. So I ordered the fan and being the impatient person I am, I ripped open the package and installed the fan in my case. I usually don’t read manuals or directions but this time something caught my eye. On the package, it said something like “Auto Temp. Case Fan.” After observing the fan for couple hours, I was pretty impressed with the features so I thought that I should do a review on this puppy. So here goes!

Thermo MAXX contains an automatic temperature sensor, which allows the fan to slow down or speed up according to the temperature inside your case. This fan contains a Molex connector as well as optional motherboard plug, which allow you to control the speed of the fan manually with cheaply available fan controllers.

You might be wondering how does this fan automatically control its speed? The thermistor of this fan is located on the wiring of the fan, which monitors the flow of air. The noise level was relatively quiet even at the full speed. It is available in many sizes.

In Conclusion, this fan is just as simple to install as any other case fan you have installed before. We are impressed with its noise level and it’s dual ball bearings. We are certainly impressed with its feature of automatic speed control according to the temperature and surely the price. You can’t go wrong with a $9.99 price tag. If you want quality then this is the fan for you but like myself who always tries to find beauty and quality this might make me think twice. Since more and more people are getting into modding their cases and want some beauty in their cases, we sure would have loved to have the same model with some LED’s installed.

Pros:
Low noise level
Automatic speed control
Ease of installation
Dual ball bearing design

Cons:
Preferred LED model
