A few months ago I bought a CMWS branded 120mm fan which is exactly the same as that one by the way Coolerguys 120mm fan. It has more badass guys logo right on the fan hub. Then I bought 2 of these AC Infinity fans. When comparing both brands, the AC fan is of higher quality and more valuable in my opinion. My reasons for coming to this conclusion are as follows: AC Infinity has a much longer cord, spare USB connector, power switch, storage life is much longer, it comes with 2 grids so it can be used standing , lower power consumption but higher airflow and a power adapter. Side by side, the AC Infinity's airflow is significantly higher. The CMWS/coolerguys fan claims a lower noise level, but I didn't hear any difference. Both are very quiet. On Amazon AC, shipping can cost a few dollars more. But you get a higher quality fan with a lot more features/options than the other two. On acinfinity.com, the price is $13.99 with a flat shipping fee of $6 whether you buy 1 or 50 fans. I've listed the specs for both below from each brand's website. I think the numbers and features speak for themselves. _________________________________________________________________________________ Brand ------------------ Coolerguys / CMWS -------- *AC Infinity _________________________________________________________________________________ Price ------ -------- ----$13.49 / $16.99 ------------ *$13.99 Shipping-----------------$8.64 (free over $35 $8.64 (free with $35 purchase) Size ------------------ 120x120x25mm -------- ---- *120x120x25mm Power ---------------- -- DC 5V/1.15W --------------- ---------- --- *5VDC/0.84W Fan Speed ----- --- ---- 1200RPM +/- 10% ---- ------ *1200RPM Airflow --- ------------- 44 CFM ------- ------------ ---------------- - *52 CFM noise ------------------ 19.7 dBa -------- ------ ------- *23dba working temp ----- -10C / +55C ---------------- *-20C / +70C Bearing -------------- Double Ball - ------------------ *Double ball bearing life ------------ 50,000 hours @40C ---------- *67,000 Hours Connections @70C ----------- USB/ 22" ---------------- *USB/ 72" Spare USB Port ------- No - ----------- ------------- * Yes Power Button --------- No ---------- - ------------- -- *Yes Grid/Rubber Pads -- 1 / 4 ---------- * Power Supply 2 / 8 ------ -- --- No ----------- --------- *Yes________________________________________________________________ Thank you for reading.
