Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great product, terribly difficult to install! No defect in the product.

These fans are a perfect match. Very happy about that because opening up an MSI laptop and accessing the bottom of the motherboard to swap them out will make anyone a praying man. This is a big operation! A heart monitor beeped in the background, the doctor dictated things like "scalpel, suction, hose clamp" and so on. There was probably an assistant and someone covering the children's ears, as I often cursed. All of this suggests that installing fans can damage your laptop. This is quite a dangerous game as you have to pretty much unplug everything from the motherboard and then pull out the motherboard to unscrew and disconnect the fans for replacement. This is just a terrible design from MSI. But this fan made product worked great when my laptop came back to life. So if you're sure you can make Frankenstein's electronics breathe again after playing doctor with them, then go for it.

Pros
  • One-year trial
Cons
  • Available in black only
