Quality

It came with the hardware to mount it was easy to install and worked on my next boot of my pc

Used this product on my boat to circulate some air in the console

These are the ones with the 4 wire hookup

Daisy chained them with the cpu fan and it works great

Price

I got them at an awesome price

For the price you cannot go wrong with these

Competitiveness

I have them in a thermaltake core v1 build and they keep everything as cool as i would have liked

I use this to cool a nvme drive and a sas controller

Apparently no longer available from amazon so when i try to review it it comes up as a 3pin

They came brand new in the box with a black wire plenty of length and 3pin plug connectors that plug right into the mb
