5.0 out of 5 stars The "Big Boy" gets me to 3.8GHz stable, November 27, 2009

This review is from: Antec Big Boy 200 Tricool Fan 200Mm (Personal Computers)

I bought this to replace an 80mm fan in the side wall of my older case. Sure, it involved cutting a large hole in the side, but I'm a modder and it was definitely worth it. I have heretofore only been able to get my Phenom II 955 overclocked to 3.7GHz stable in my current case, but this baby got me to 3.8GHz rock solid stable on the medium speed setting. One previous reviewer complained that it didn't fit the "standard hole pattern." Since there are only a few 200mm fans out there (This one and one style made by Cooler Master) and they are all for custom case applications, I don't know how it could be standard. As for another reviewer complaining about no included grill, a cursory web search took me to [...], who have a 200mm grill for this fan which works perfectly. In case you were wondering about the speed control, it is a tiny triple-throw switch on about 6" of wire coming out from the fan. All in all, this is a great fan!

4.0 out of 5 stars Fan is a fan but it doesn't fit my case, August 16, 2009

This review is from: Antec Big Boy 200 Tricool Fan 200Mm (Personal Computers)

This is a decent fan for the price but it doesn't fit the bolt pattern for the 200mm mounting holes on my case (the 200mm fans that come with the case do fit). It is just a little off but it means only one screw can actually be screwed in without modification. I bought it for my Cooler Master RC-922M-KKN1-GP HAF 922M ATX Mid Tower Case but I can't mount it without drilling new mounting holes in the fan. I did drill new holes and mounted it ans it works just fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Replacement better than the original, January 1, 2012

I bought this as a replacement (same manufacturer). My original lost a fin while I was simply cleaning it. I noticed the replacement is made of more flexible plastic. I run my fan on medium speed and never hear it. It would be a little noisy for my taste on high speed, but not excessive. It is well balanced and replacement was a breeze (pun sort of intended). Overall, it works well and, for the price, I can't help but give it 5 stars.
