Alphacool uses this fan for all of their water cooling needs
The Papst-Sintec fans use of a special ceramics sliding support. By means of this support, very low noise operation is made possible with long service life, which was reached previously only by means of ball bearings. Additionally each fan is balanced in two levels, which provides a low vibration run. Papst fans are equipped with an electronic wrong pin safety device, protection against blocking and overloading by impedance protection.
If you are looking for a very quiet fan of excellent quality, this model is our best recommendation.
