Lame gimmick me thinks.

Doubt it. Just looks like a good product to me, if it's as advertised, not a bad price either.

I've seen that before, and someone said it makes a lot of noise, but I don't know if it was that exact model though.

Sharkoon have had similar fans out for years. And they're awesome. Very quiet and the 2000 120mm shifts a decent amount of air very quietly at 12v. At 7v it's almost silent.

Why do you think real golfballs have dimples? For the exact same reason (less resistance through the air).

yeah, the tech works.

Blue LEDS !!! :O Whoa i completely did not know that. Sarcasm is my second language... i mean when the fan is spinning with the blue led on surely you couldn't make out the dimples , which kinda defeats the object here.
