AFAIK Cooler master one is a black fan with LED while Deepcool is clear plastic with LED. it's a matter of personal choice I guess. Both have similar specs.

But ice blade has better airflow

Depends on what exactly are you looking for, bling bling or better cooling?

My cabbie supports 2 x 120 mm and 1 x 80 mm . I Have only 1 x 120 mm fan installed.

For better cooling, Go for this >> Cooler Master XtraFlo Cooler | Cooler | Flipkart.com

Else try these 120mm Sunbeamtech fans from Prime, looks like some clearance offer >> *www.primeabgb.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=1027&category_id=329&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=54


For 80mm fans, stick to normal ones, If you live in Chennai, try with IT Depot, I bought this 6 in 1 pack a few weeks back >> *www.theitdepot.com/details-Cooler+Master+80mm+Case+Fan+-+6+Pcs+in+1+Box+(SAF-S83-E1)_C10P13126.html

Ask if they sell them separately, no point spending 350 on a LED fan if your cabbie has no transparent panel.

Yeah it's good too, the max airflow is 60cfm for Ice blade, where as for the Cooler master one above is 93cfm. That's the only difference.

He already mentioned his budget. its Rs. 400.

You're better off with Coolermaster's ball bearing alternative.

Is Deepcool iceblade Fan Good any Good ??

Hehe sai, you are thinking too much over a simple case fan :p
Prices vary depending on the type of bearing used, the bling bling and the amount of airflow.

Choose something which fits your budget, all fans are good in their own right, nothing complex in their design to ponder over :)

Yes, Ice Blade is good.
