See, what you want to do is put your PC in the spare room with the bed, place 4 of these fans in your PC, invite someone you don't like to stay, and then leave the PC on overnight because it's 'a production server' on the Internet and needs to stay on.
Are Deltas really *that* loud?

Tornado's are VERY loud too, not quite the same as delta's though.
Still, just to stress - they are UNBARABLY LOUD.

the 120mm crossflow rules. I was playing with it today since I pulled it out to have a look at it after reading this thread.
found a good use for it: paperwork blower. kind of like a leafblower for the garden, except stronger, louder, and indoors.
cleaned up my workdesk a treat. no idea where anything is anymore, but it was sure was fun
You know what else is fun? GFB-series deltas, the 50-ish-mm thick ones with dual props. They whine like a stuka in a dive, only twice as loud. Perfect for scaring the neighbour's cat/dog/whale/blah, or any jehova's witenesses/door to door salesmen/mother in law's/etc.
Also High-Speed 140mm Yate Loons (140CFM from a 25mm thick fan)

I can remember having a 60mm Delta. Loud and Dangerous!

Deltas are great if you have some buzzy annoying insect in your computer room that you just can't catch, fire the delta up, securely fix it down somehow and walk away, the annoying buzzy insect WILL end up going through the delta, once it gets within a few feet of the thing, there is no going back for it

It might not chop it right off, but it could very well cut it up nicely, and its certainly able to break it.
That sound it makes, like the wrath of god is about to come down on you? Thats its way of telling ya "Dont mess".

My 120mm Panaflo's have cut me about three times before because i didn't have fan guards on them. Looking at that video, i expect that the delta's will do a lot more damage than my panaflo'sVegeta said:

If they are quiet and still push a fair bit then i may be interested in some
