Black Expansion Slot Rear Exhaust Fan with LP4 Connector - FANCASE by StarTech.com (1 Pack)

The StarTech.com Expansion Slot Rear Exhaust Fan is designed to enhance airflow in computer cases by fitting into standard full-height or full-profile expansion slots. It helps expel warm air from the rear of the case, improving cooling efficiency for components like high-performance graphics cards. The fan is suitable for use in various PC builds where additional cooling is needed, especially in compact or custom cases with limited space for traditional fans.

This fan uses a ball bearing motor and operates at 2,200 RPM, moving 36 CFM of air while producing 32 dBA of noise. It is powered via an inline LP4 connector, making it compatible with standard hard drive power supplies. However, it does not support PWM speed control and runs at full speed, which may be a consideration for users looking to manage noise levels or optimize cooling performance dynamically.

The fan features a black plastic housing and a reversible bracket for flexible installation options. It is designed to fit into PCI or ISA expansion slots, making it ideal for older or newer systems that require additional airflow without the need for extra mounting hardware. The build quality ensures durability with a mean time before failure (MTBF) of 37,739 hours.

Installation is straightforward, as the fan connects directly to an LP4 power connector and fits into standard expansion slots. It is particularly useful in cases where rear airflow is limited or when cooling high-heat components like GPUs. Users should note that it cannot be shipped to Massachusetts due to local regulations.
