I've had my 80mm Delta for about three days now, and its NOISY! I actually quite like the noise though as I am accustomed to it now :)

But anyway, just a word of advice. Dont ever put your finger into one of these fans. I did just for fun and chipped my top middle finger nail and had blood galore pour out over my hand :eek:

Its definately one of the best things Ive bought. It makes my case look great!

Also my temps have fallen down by a couple of degrees now too.
I run at 35ºC Idle and 38ºC Load, not bad eh? Shame I still cant overclock.

I'm sure the blood spatters made the inside of your case a lot more colorful. :p

Maybe Delta razor-sharpened the fan blades to make it more aeordynamic.... Better keep the PSU power leads away from it as well.

where did you get your delta 80mm? did you get an adapter for it, cuz I have the hegde hog with the delta 60mm.
I would love another 30cfm.

also are my temps strange.

My T-Bird 1.2 is runnin at 1.38.

idle is 28 and full load is 42. "full load is alot, downloading, mp3 encoding, and playing a game"

I don't see that much of a difference in everyone elses

Did you not buy a fan guard for it? Ive got the 60mm flavor and im glad mine came with it. I feel for you as i wouldnt want any part of me near those blades. Plus fanguards just plain look cool. Next time your shopping pick one up eh?
