SilverStone Intros FHS 140X, a Thick 140mm Fan with High Static-Pressure
SilverStone today introduced the FHS 140X, a powerful 140 mm fan meant to be used with radiators or heatsinks, or as high-pressure ventilation in server/workstation builds. This fan is 38 mm-thick, while standard 140 mm fans are supposed to be 25 mm in thickness. The impeller is geared for high airflow, and is turned by a high-power motor. This combination results in a stellar 10 mm H₂O static-pressure, and maximum airflow of 222.95 CFM, which it achieves at its top speed of 3,400 RPM. All this comes at a maximum noise output of 50 dBA, and a little over 13 W of power-draw (so you need to plan your fan-control setup carefully). The fan is clad completely in black, including the impeller and frame. A metal grill comes included, which you're recommended to place near the inlet. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Air Flow: 110.5 CFM
Noise Level: 55 dBA
Silverstone's fan bearings had very obvious 'tick' sound at low speed.
They are not designed to run very quiet at low speed.
