Purchased from NewEgg on 10/5/2011

  Designed for a 2U high case, 4-pin PWM connector, LGA 1155/1156 socket support
  Air Flow (Duty cycle):
      0~20%: 8.5 CFM | 50%: 12.2 CFM | 100%: 26.45 CFM
  Noise Level (Duty cycle):
       0~20%: 13.8 dBA | 50%: 21.8 dBA | 100%: 38.7 dBA
  There are two arrows etched on the fan casing.  They're easy to spot.  Mine were visible on the bottom.  The horizontal arrow shows the direction the fan spins, while the vertical one points which way the air flows.
  Note: You're going to want to point the fan at the front of your case. It blows air back across the heatsink and out the rear of the case.
  Also, buy your own thermal transfer paste, as Dynatron is notorious for letting cardboard bits get into theirs.
  LGA1155 (Xeon) and LGA1156 (Core i3) share the same screw hole design; spaced 75mm apart.
