Default Galaxy 3x80mm Slot Fan

3 large fans about 80mm each. Total length about the same as a GTX260/280
card. External fan speed adjustment knob. It's meant for Galaxy's line of
passively-cooled cards, but will obviously work with other brands.

Can't say I've ever been terribly impressed by Galaxy's fan suppliers.
Their GF8 and 9 fans were pretty loud compared to the reference boards.
These ones look pretty much like any Antec 80mm type case fan you'd
find, or a dozen other brands. Even if they were running at reduced RPM
of like 1200-1500, together it might be a bit noisy. Especially with no
vent out the back for heat buildup, hopefully whatever card you were
cooling had one. At least they have a fan controller.
