Super quiet, easy to install.

It buzzes a little, maybe you need to tighten the screws more. It cools well, it only turns on when Raspberry warms up.
Eugeniusz L. 21.11.2021 Confirmed purchase Translated review

Bartłomiej M. 23.06.2021 Confirmed purchase Translated review
Works great
Marek G. 31.05.2021 Confirmed purchase Translated review
It was possible to assemble only he had to pull the heat sinks from the board to put it on the GPIO plugs

A great fan, but I have a pro tip for you: if you spent a few days following the forums "why is my fan doing with the diode as it should, but it works all the time, and does not turn off at the set threshold" the answer is simple - contacts. When the fan is mounted on the pins too low / too high, it starts working all the time, not on the thresholds you set. The problem is that the fan creates vibrations, so it always changes its position slightly on the pins. Just be prepared for it to keep running and that's it. And don't rub on creaking wooden cases.
