[citation][nom]Poisoner[/nom]Honestly, why spend extra money on pretty case fans that you can't see in most cases or LED lights that don't make your computer any faster when you could spend it on more RAM or a better video card. Its like buying those big chrome rims for your car. It'd be better to spend that money under the hood.[/citation]

I paid about $3 more for each fan compared to a non led competing fan with the same cfm/db performance, I really don't see what the extra $15 could have possible done for me in terms of ram (8 gigs, on sale $75 per pair), cpu (amd 945 be) or video card (4870 oc edition, with $50 rebate), all bought march of 09. All the $15 could have done for me is buy a spare mouse pad...
 
[citation][nom]Rico Mossesgeld[/nom]We're not sure, though, if using magnets so close to your hardware is a good idea. The rep assured us that they weren't strong enough to cause any damage.[/citation]

You know that the motor of the fan is a magnet right?

Actually in some way I am agree with you, but you should ask yourself an other question :
Why people mod cases? for performance ? or beauty ?
