Overall I don't have a lot of beef with Nyko but after buying this piece of crap I do.  First off I see there are some people that say the new model (the one in the box and not in the plastic) is better.  This however was not the case for me.  The first version I bought starting having problems about 2 weeks after buying it.  It would make this really annoying grinding noise.  I would have to keep hitting the fan until it would stop.  The newer version I also bought and had the same problem.  The new version is better though.  It lasted me 3 weeks instead of 2.  Real Impressive.  It did its job by keeping the system cool but the grinding noise it made just wasn't worth it.  It was so loud that you could actually hear that noise on the second story of my house and my system is on the first floor.  There are better options then this thing.  You could go for the new Mad Catz fan which I heard good things about or the Pelican fan stand.  They may not be as powerful but they keep the system cool, they're not defective, and they have an impressive warranty.  The best part is if the Pelican fan damages your system they will replace it for free while if this Nyko one does they won't replace your system or the fan.  I wonder Why?  So stay far away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
