if you want to replace the fan, please use ONE 12038(or 12044) size, 4PIN PWM, 12V , with at least 3600RPM maximum speed.  ball bearing is recommend.

a 1200rpm 12025 fan (or 2 in series ) will of course kill the machine.


12038fan at 3600 RPM? Oh, my god! How the noise will be!
Looks like a water cooling is necessary if I got a machine!

treat it as a server or workstation. this is NOT a HTPC or something like that.

if (only if) we build a 1U blade, we will certainly put 4 or more DF04056B12U (4056size, 13900rpm)on it.
Have a bunch of units with this type fans... Oh my got, this will be impossible to stay for long in room with it Smiley Especially if ambient temp will be high Smiley

For future reference those number are decoded as:

"If you want to replace the fan, please use ONE 120mm x 38mm (or 120mm x 44mm) size, 4PIN PWM, 12V , with at least 3600RPM maximum speed.  ball bearing is recommend.

a 1200rpm 120mm x 25mm fan (or 2 in series ) will of course kill the machine."
