Review on Outstanding Adapter 17 5Cm Converter Extension by Andrew Schreider

Revainrating 1 out of 5

The description is 100% WRONG. The picture shows I shouldn't have trusted the description I think.

The description says "Please note that it cannot be used on Dell motherboards." which would mean that it adapts the Dell fan to a regular motherboard. As you can see from the photo, the Dell 5 pin connector is the same as the Dell fans that plug into the Dell motherboard. The other side is a 4-pin header that you'll find on a regular motherboard that connects to a regular fan. So the Dell fan does not adapt to the regular mainboard, but to the Dell mainboard. Thank you for wasting another 2 days with my firewall not working. Too cheap an item for me to spend 30 minutes one way to turn it in for a refund, but I'm seriously considering doing this, just on principle, so again the seller should pay for the mistake, not me. I'd pay $20 for a dumb cable to turn this firewall back on, but none of these vendors seem to be able to write a simple description. Get someone who can.

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Some bugs
