PC case fans – the most important things at a glance

The first question that arises is what is a PC case fan? A PC case fan is a fan that attaches to the case of a computer and cools the air inside the case. This is important because a computer can get very hot very quickly and overheating can damage the hardware.

There are two main types of case fans: axial fans and centrifugal fans. Axial fans are the ones you typically find in a computer case. They are smaller and lighter than centrifugal fans and spin on one axis, meaning they only move air in one direction. Centrifugal fans are larger and heavier than axial fans and spin on a different axis. This means they can move air in two directions.

Most computer cases come with a fan or two pre-installed. Typically, these fans are axial and only move in one direction. However, if you want to add a centrifugal fan to your case, you can. Because centrifugal fans tend to be larger and heavier, it's important that you make sure the enclosure you're installing the fan in is strong enough to accommodate it.

When buying a new fan, there are a few things to consider. First of all, you need to decide what type of fan you want. As mentioned above, there are axial and radial. If you're not sure which one you need, ask a computer store for help.

Once you know what type of fan you want, you need to determine the size of the fan. The size of the fan is important because you need to make sure the fan will fit in the case you plan to install it in. If the fan is too small, it won't be able to get enough air into the case to cool it. If the fan is too big, it will take up too much space in the case and may cause cooling problems.

Fan speed is also an important factor to consider when choosing a fan. The speed is specified in revolutions per minute (rpm). The higher the speed, the faster the fan moves and the more air it moves. To ensure the fan is moving enough air to cool the case, you should choose a fan with a speed of at least 2000 RPM.

The final consideration when choosing a fan
