Default Daz... Why are these fans $200!!!
This is going into the water cooling section as they where found on Dazmodes site. Instead of seding Daz and email, I thought I would like to share this with everyone (I am not poking fun at Feser or Daz).

Dazmode, why are these fans $200 a piece?
Exclusive --- The TK-121 Prototype - smoky blades Triebwerk - Ultimate Cooling Fan [TK-121] - $199.99 : DazMode, Watercooling enthusiasts store

If I do 12 in a push/ pull configuration, how will my temps look?

Again, I am not making fun of anyone, this just really interests me. Why? Well, a San Ace is $30 because of its performance. Since these $200 fans are more than six-times the price, do they push 600cfm?

That fan usually sells for about $30 US it seems; however, Daz's site clearly states that they are pre-production prototypes so someone might want them as a kind of collector's item.

I just want to keep them to myself!

This is collector items as those two smoky blade fans exist in only one copy each in the world. I was able to "steal" those when I visited TFC headquarters this summer as well as their DDC X-top which never saw production.

Only low speed left at the moment (1200 rpm). The 1800rpm version will be back later in the month...
