not true, good quality sleeve bearings can last years but cheap sleeve bearings doesn't last long.
Cooler Master fans have quality sleeve bearings.

Cooler Master is generally very bad quality products. Ive had nothing but issues with them in the past. But I am sure it will do what you need it to do.

I guess you must of had bad luck or im just lucky.. i have yet to have one issue with anything i bought from them , but that wasn't the reason i bought it i wanted to try 200 mm fans, I like them ..


I have seen posts of others having issues with CM stuff, i think my first cpu cooler was from them, i still have it and use it.

Sleeve is shit compared to ball, fluid, mag, etc. The only advantage sleeve bearings have over other more durable bearings is cost. But those cooler master fans aren't cheap.

Every sleeve-bearing fan with a Cooler Master logo on it I've ever bought died within less than a year - specifically including a pair of Gemini coolers (nice coolers, work well once I put REAL fans on them).

 On the other hand, I DO have a few fans with Cooler Master logos on them that appear to actually be Delta fans that have lasted a long time.
