Description:
Differs from the traditional framed fans by reducing the backpressure and turbulence produced by the air hitting the side walls of traditional fans. As a result, the frameless fans are much quieter than the traditional fans.

Good Product
Strengths: Quiet, easy to install and good price
Weakness: A little bulky and doesn't come with thermal paste.
Installed this fan on a AMD Athlon 64 X2 5400 2.8GHz processor and works great. Keeps CPU about 40-42(C) degrees cool under heavy workload. Great fan for the value.

Underwhelmed
Strengths: none
Weakness: cooling and noise
Unfortunately this product did not live up to its claims. Can not recommend. Does not cool very well and is noisy. Considered sending it back for refund but shipping charges add up quickly now.
