Interesting looking fan.... 'frameless' sort of.....Alseye W12

[EarthDog]

Ran across this fan, and I don't recall seeing anything like it. Anyone else?

I also wonder how well it works, specifically static pressure, without a full frame around it.

I'll bet it looks better than it performs. I'm still waiting for all those toroidal fans to hit the market.

They look like they would do a great job at recirculating air around in your case. Actually push air through a somewhat restrictive fan guard, not so much.

Yeah, static pressure will be an issue on these, no doubt. They are for looks, lol

Consensus of reviews (even on 2yo YouTube videos) seems to be noisy/overpriced, but for most it seems to fix some sort of space/cable issues, so... niche?

Im debating about testing these in Microcenter.......... they are.......the most interesting LOOKING fans I've seen, but that ~$30 price is offputting.

How are they charging $30 for half a fan?

Pretty cool, but good lord if you thought getting your finger on a fan with a casing would be bad, this would shred your finger.
