For those who live in the US just go to Wal Mart and get a 32" industry fan. Cos thats what we need when these high temps kick in. Got ours for $30 and will not cut ya finger of it cut ya arm off if there was not fan guard.

Shame more of us cannot afford air conditioner even more so when it hit's upper 90's and that AC fan will be none existent at those temps.

I have two boxfans in my computer room, one in the window (sometimes exhaust, sometimes intake), and one on the floor for just me. Plus there's a ceiling fan.

Forget Newegg. These'll probably show up on Woot.

I hope I get 10 of these in my next bag of crap!!

GD, this is basically a 92mm case fan on a stick :shadedshu

If a dumb kid gets next to it their fingers will be gone, & I have 3 of the poor things running around my house - all under 5. The only thing I can think of that would be more dangerous is a usb power mini open AC unit :p

I hope this means there'll be a new effort to overclock Jesus. I wonder how far past 3.69GHz he could get with one of these pointed at him.
I'm sure watercooling would be more effective, and especially LN2 would beat this, but it's just still not a great setup.

i've seen USB mini fans a while now, the blades are made of some soft plastic or cloth-like material that doesn't hurt at all, and the throughput is surprisingly high

The USB mini AC is very useful, this fan is overpriced as it got a safety hazard on top of that. The blades are made of some soft plastic or cloth-like material that doesn't hurt at all.
