Greetings, I think everyone who reads this thread understands that you are upset. Yet another assumption; I'm not upset, I have been scammed. It's quite different to be scammed than upset. I firmly believe the information and the matter should not only be shared, but discussed, as this is a prime e...

Well I have now managed to get sight of a Clodius case fan complete with label. This is how it compares with the two other Nexus fans.

Darwin awards, I think we have a candidate. I can understand you are pissed. At Nexus, (maybe a bit at yourself...) but don't take it out on fellow forum posters. Using things out of context is always brilliant: So let's wrap this up. What you are saying is: I made a faulty assumption by thinking D...

OK, I think we are getting there slowly. Yes we are. Where is the specsheet for this third fan you were referring to? So you accept that the two Nexus retail 120mm fans have the model codes D12SL-12 and D12SL-12 PWM. The PWM fan, despite the D12SL-12 branding is completely different to the fixed sp...

Re: Nexus Clodius..?

To go back to what you said in the first place, your saw the Nexus Clodius case on special offer, and there was nothing on the box it came in that said exactly what the fan spec was. So you decided that as the fan label said D12SL then it could only be one fan, the well-known Nexus 1000 rpm model. ...

The fact of the matter is, that he bought a CASE, not some fans. If he had researched the CASE he bought, he would realise they come with 1700rpm fans. Delete this thread! I bought A PRODUCT.

I don't understand this entire thread at all. What furthur research needs to be done when the label already says "D12SL"? A simple re search for "D12SL" on SPCR forums would reveal 1000 or 1350 rpm, never 1700rpm... That is what the search does (excluding this thread) and to make clear, NEXUS D12SL...

For what it's worth, I think your claim that your fans had exactly the same label as the normal 1000 rpm fans is not correct. I had forgotten about it but Nexus normally mark a power consumption number on their fan labels. I have a couple of Nexus fans here and they are so marked, but it is written...

This seems to largely bear out what vanhus said in his OP, but there seems to be no mention of fan labels.... The "review" does nothing, as it does not mention fan labels. However, word "SERVER" does make an excellent point of the noiselevel the machine is going to produce anyways. Fan slowed down ...

D12SL is a Yate Loon product number which Nexus just happens to use, common practice with fans of most brands. It's absolutely irrelevant what kind of labeling others use, as the fan in question very clearly indentified itself as a Nexus D12SL-12. Due to the indentification it has very distinctive ...

normal people... I fail to see the point of mailing them, as according to their site, the fans are working as they are supposed work between 1000-1700 rpm. At best, I would only end up getting the same fans with different sticker on them - not the fans I thought I was buying. But who knows, I'll ma...

Didn't someone say they are shipped with no sticker now? Which suggests that the early batches were labeled wrong by Yate-Loon. When approached, this is how Nexus explained labeling of the fans: "The model number is not so much related to the speed but more related to the components of the fan. So ...

I bought D12SL with motor that's quiet, I got D12SL that's @7V louder than the original at 12V. I bought D12SL that runs 1000rpm@12V, I got D12SL that runs 1700rpm@12V. WHO HAS ...

Nexus came back, hopefully they don't mind me doing some copy-pasting: The fans inside the Clodius case are set to 1700 RPM. That means at full speed they will run 1700 RPM. But they are connected to the fan controller and at the minimum position of the fan controller the fans should run at around 9...

The Nexus website for the Clodius says 1000-1700rpm in at least three places. Site says, box however does not. I'm not using internet at hardwarestore, I'm using my eyes and common sense - unless I'm buying something that's worth more than 50€. Then I might bother doing proper research. So the fa...
