Since blue happens to be my favor color I immediately fell in love with Bluegears Blue-Ice 120mm fan, as a matter of fact it is similar in color to the new Saturn Vue Redline Edition I just purchased.  The Blue-Ice is built on a very solid frame and thanks to the special design of the frame the use of extra cross supports running to the center of the fan to support the motor are not need thus creating a clearer air pathway.
 
 
 
 
Each fan has seven fins per fan and with the extreme pitch of the blades they are able to create more air.  So what we have is an extremely quiet fan that operates at approximately 1800 RPM and pushes approximately 63.50 CFM which is slightly above average for a fan of this size.
 

The B-Ice just like the B-Cool comes with an extra long power cable with a Molex connector attached to the end of it due to the fact that a fan of this size will draw to much current to be mounted directly to a motherboard header.

With the B-Ice installed you can clearly see that it lights things up quiet nicely and provides the entire case with a soft blue lighting effect which for me is absolutely perfect. 

Whether it be the 80mm B-Cool with its unique ability to read the temperature of the air passing through the fan or 120mm B-Ice,  either one of these fans would be a welcome addition to your gaming case and it is sure to add a bit more 'Wow Factor" to your already dream system.

A special thanks to Bluegears Inc. who graciously provided us with these samples
