<strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong> <strong>Super</strong> <strong>Tornado</strong> <strong>350</strong>The big feature of the <strong>Super</strong> <strong>Tornado</strong> range is the horizontally mounted 120mm cooling fanwhich is responsible not only for its superb cooling performance but which also serves tokeep noise levels at a minimum. 120mm fans can usually create a greater airflow at muchlower spin speeds than their smaller 80mm or 60mm brethren.Apparently, by mounting the fan horizontally <strong>Sea</strong><strong>Sonic</strong> have extended fan life by eliminatinggravity resultant lubricant seapage and by removing the sideways pressure from thebearings.<strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong>'s S2FC (Smart and Silent Fan Control) technology keeps the fan spinning atspeeds accurately matched with operating temperatures to always offer the optimum powerefficiency under all load conditions.120mm Fan GrillAlthough <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong>'s documentation suggests an airflow of >70CFM, when I checked thefan's specs on the manufacturer's site it actually quotes a figure of only 56CFM at 12volts soit's possible that either more than 12volts is fed to it or the figures from one of them arewrong.Update* I spoke to Mina Chan at <strong>Sea</strong> <strong>Sonic</strong> about the fan's specs and she explained to methat they are in the process of amending the specifications on the packaging to reflect thefact that they may have to source alternative fans during times of component shortages. Inall fairness, the difference in cooling between a 50CFM and a 70CFM fan is probably nothttp://www.3dvelocity.com/reviews/sstornado/tornado<strong>350</strong>_2.htm (3 / 5) [2004/8/6 PM 05:55:24]
