    Some very interesting results there. Lots of graphs (including noise normalized, wattage and frequency) for both current and previous-gen socket CPUs. Rough pricing and non-standard fan sizes on both units. Ouch.

    The customer header and incompatible mounts to swap out to different fans is a dealbreaker for me. Oh well.

    Tl;dw

    It’s expensive, uses proprietary fan connectors and mounts and doesn’t even perform that well compared to competition that is also cheaper. DOA

    Phantom Spirit costs less than half the price of the Elite and performs better, also doesn’t use a stupid propriertary fan mount or fan connectors. What an awful product.
