Introduction

Cooling, every computer needs it, so why not do it in style? Cooling for your computer comes in many different shapes, colors and sizes. Today I am taking a look at a cool little product from Blue Gears; it is the B-Cool 80mm fan. What makes this fan unique is that it has a built in temperature display that shows the temp of the incoming air on while the fan is spinning, the LED display is actually parts of the spinning blades of the fan. This is a cool little product that will really add some style to your computer. Let's get a better look at it...

First Looks

The B-Cool came to me for review in its standard retail packaging, the fan is displayed on the front to give you a nice view of it. The back of the package lists all the specs and features and gives you some nice pictures of the B-Cool. Overall the package is nicely done and attractive; it gives you enough information so you can make an informed buying decision.

The fan itself has a semi transparent purple housing, it comes with a nice long 3-pin connector cable. Also included are screws to mount the fan, and a Molex pass-through adapter.
