They are measured from edge-to-edge . I.E. an 80mm fan will measure exactly 80mm from end to end. 80MM 80MM

CASE FAN SPEED

[{"selector":"#anim-3a360edf-5354-4f71-bf4e-06fa0f4a8b9a","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-50721b2a-1d70-41f2-8150-91473f32bf46","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(117.32027%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-fd2c9f8c-77c6-4132-b4e8-a7455b7d17f5","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d64c5f66-46d0-4d51-a341-0b00f2e6d1b7","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.64707%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Fan speed is measured in rounds per minute (RPM). How fast the blades spin per minute. Not really a useful spec.

CASE FAN AIR FLOW

[{"selector":"#anim-06355440-0dcf-453e-b568-b1b5d035844c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(-117.64707%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b634487f-26de-40b0-b763-13720db4f0d2","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d744adc6-5c28-46ed-aea7-38e63e12fbf7","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-de47560e-416f-44b0-adb0-4abb9a39622c","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(116.33988%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-7ff41fb1-8bab-4c57-af37-8acf4dfda9b9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-586b2f83-d351-43db-9a5e-11f8f7356aff","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.15)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-d30d7a36-c676-440f-bb67-d3295951c913","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-158b3172-e026-4942-941e-484b9c734f5f","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(0px, 484.12711%, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":0,"duration":600,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] Measured in cubic feet per minute (CFM) . A higher number means more air getting moved. PC fans generally move about 20 to 70 CFM.

CASE FAN NOISE LEVEL

[{"selector":"#anim-3755e49e-40a7-4893-8f13-ccbd9620026c","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-41d21fa3-e6db-4f73-a6c2-37e3e751a743","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(0.3333333333333333)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] [{"selector":"#anim-b7f17687-5339-42e5-a607-c41c90677b7c","keyframes":{"opacity":[1,1]},"delay":0,"duration":500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-2f156cf6-5b77-40a9-aae7-e0e97df074d2","keyframes":{"transform":["scale(3)","scale(1)"]},"delay":0,"duration":500,"easing":"cubic-bezier(.3,0,.55,1)","fill":"forwards"}] Generally measured in decibels relative to air (dBA). 25dBA is a quiet library, and PC fans are generally around 20 to 30 dBA.

Standard PC case fans run on 12V.
