Scythe Kama FLEX - A Quality Quiet Multi-Purpose Cooling Fan
The Scythe Kama FLEX fans are equipped with genuine S-FDB (SONY Fluid Dynamic Bearing) manufactured by SONY corporation. S-FDB technology drastically eliminates the friction between the bearing and the shaft which makes this fan nearly inaudible to human ears. Additional suction magnet optimises the magnetic force balance within the rotor to achieve absolute silence. To make this fan even quieter, the fan is equipped with the Linear drive IC for reducing electromagnetic noise.
Conventional ball bearing carries a point contacting structure for the rotation, which gives point supporting situations at dropping impact to damage ball bearing surface which could cause irregular noises. The S-FDB carries a surface contact mechanism for improved anti-shock structure, which is five times stronger than a conventional ball bearing. Available in three different fan speeds, there is a solution for everybody.
Scythe Kama FLEX fans are supplied with the same S-FDB (SONY Fluid Dynamic Bearing) bearings that can be found on the extremely popular Scythe S-FLEX fans, with the only major difference being the price! This makes the Kama FLEX excellent value for money.

I was using Xilence Red Wing fans which are quite good but these produce much more airflow. Case temps have dropped by 7c instantly! They are pretty much silent... Well recommended!
