Pros: Pushes a lot of air

Cons: Little loud

I bought 3 of these for my brand new XSPC RS360 and they push the fans on the other side of the radiator faster than what they are rated at, but only by like 50RPM. They are a bit loud but not too loud.They push quite a bit of air making them perfect for case fans. I would have bought GTs over these but they are constantly out of stock.

speaking of rated rpms I bought 1 of the scythe slim slipstreams for the spot behind my motherboard and it runs as rated 2000rpm. I like it and would recommend it if you have the spot back there and need a slim fan. My issue is the rosewill fans I bought for my 2 door and 1 bottom fan.
rated at 2000 rpms I got one that runs at 1500max 1 that runs at 2000 and one that seems vary a little I can set it to 2000 one time and the next time itll only set to 1700. I'm thinking I probably need to rma 2 bad ones but if I do I lose that cooling for who knows how long.

How's the cooling performance? Slipstreams have notoriously low static pressure. Also, Aquatuning usually always has them in stock (for decent prices).

I like my slim slipstream its only 45cfm but I seriously doubt the pressure is much at all.
heck I can't eve find any specs on the pressure for it. But I like it for where its at and it seems to move heat out from behind the processor very well.

The cooling of them is actually really good. People were saying they weren't as good as other fans like GTs but I'd say they are on par. Anyways with the GTs you have to order in bulk as they are always out of stock. I will be writing more reviews later on.
