I’d like to thank Victor of Bitspower for providing us with the Crystal Led Fan for review.
Led fans are becoming mainstream but not all models produce the same amount of light. Today we take a look at Bitspower's version of the LED fan, their Crystal Led Fan.
Bitspower’s 80mm Crystal fan is rated to push out about 27 CFM of air, but they also have an extra feature. The fan has a thermal sensor that controls the speed of the fan. Air flow varies between 21 CFM and 27 CFM depending on the temperature inside the case. Also included with the fan is a fan grill.

The fan features 4 leds that light it up quite nicely. I've seen other led fans that use 2 or 3 leds instead, and the results are not as appealing.
Other colors are available from Bitspower; including Two Blue and Two Red LEDs model, and a
Blue+Green+Red+Yellow LEDs model.
Pros:
- Good air flow to noise ratio
- Vibrant colors
- Thermal speed control sensor
