Cooler Master Announces the Silencio FP Series Fans

[btarunr]

Cooler Master, a leading creator, innovator, and manufacturer of desktop components and peripherals, today announced the Silencio FP Series, featuring brand new fans with Cooler Master's latest pressure optimized silent performance fan technology.

The Silencio FP Series brings in some new 120mm fan models to the Cooler Master lineup, all focused on quiet performance. These fans utilize Cooler Master's newest fan technology to bring quality airflow at extremely low noise levels. The Silencio FP Series use Loop Dynamic Bearing technology to push life expectancy up to an outstanding 160,000 hours. Next to that an all new patented driver IC on the fans provides both less vibrations to reduce noise and uses ultra-low current to save on power consumption. The driver is also more precise, providing more accurate RPM feedback for better fan management. The SmartFan engine backs up the driver with a low starting voltage and polarity proofing for less headaches when hooking up. The Silencio FP fans also come with protections against fan jams and an auto-resume function after any blade obstructions are cleared to help protect the blades and motor.



The Cooler Master Silencio FP Series is kicking off with two 120mm models:

The Silencio FP120 3PIN model offers a 1200 RPM, 38 CFM, 1.2mmH2O output at 11dBA of noise to handle all case cooling needs.

Then there is the Silencio FP120 PWM which is for those seeking performance under silence. With a 6.5 - 14 dBA noise range, the Silent Edition can put out up to 44 CFM at 1.63 mmH2O of pressure at 1400 RPM.

These models of the Silencio FP Series all come with the 160,000h life expectancy provided by the Loop Dynamic Bearing and all of the power consumption and jam protections delivered by the Smart Fan Engine and patented Silent Driver IC technology.

The Silencio FP Series fans will be available in Europe beginning of the February. Price and availability may vary based on region. Please consult your local Cooler Master Representative for more information.

I wonder how they compare to GT AP-14's

I've always found that CM fans die quickly. I've had a bunch as I like their HSFs and it used to be difficult to find other brands where I live and they do shift a lot of air.
The fans that came with all my heatsinks (212, V8, Seidon + others) have died or are rattling/on their last legs.
That being said the larger CM fans in my case have worked flawlessly for the past 4 years.
