Here we have the fans. You get two of these with either kit (120X/240), both 120mm and PWM based as stated. Overall these are pretty good fans, once the fan reaches full RPM (roughly 600~2500) you will hear them. Realistically in non-overclocked conditions they remain absolutely silent. Interesting is the following though.
 

Each fan has a small switch, basically you can select your preferred operating mode in RPM. Silent, Normal and Performance would be keywords here. The switch activates a resistor which lowers the maximum voltage and thus RPM per preferred settings. At default the fan setting is 600 to 2000 RPM. We advise you to leave the fans at this setting as it offers a good balance in maximum performance versus low noise levels. Especially with a voltage tweaked and overclocked processor, the performance setting up-to 2500 RPM becomes rather noisy.

When we flip it around we see the radiator a little better. Easy to mount, most big-tower chassis' have pre-fitted holes and space for 240mm rads.

When we flip the CPU cooling block / pump around we see an all copper base. Not exactly a mirror / lapped finish though but definitely very flat. You'll notice that quite a bit of wiring leads towards the cooling block, this is for the pump residing in that block. It is nice to see these cables being sleeved in black.
 

The top side of the block is functioning as heat-sink a bit as well. While not blasted with logos and bright LEDs etc, we do find the Enermax logo twice a bit much. Once the pump is activated / powered up a dim blue LED will show. Very subtle though.

Enermax Fulmo GT review
We review and test the Fulmo GT. Enermax has been going very strong with their power supply and fans. For a while now they also offer PC cases, and more recently they released what seems to be the biggest chassis I've ever laid my hands on. This chassis series has HPTX support for the bigger than biggest motherboards and some pretty cool features as well.
