Took the weans a walk away up the back of The Three Towns in Ayrshire where they are installing these big bad boys.

They disrupt the trailing edge eddies - which is what causes any noise - and so make them quieter. They are often fitted in areas where sound might be a particular issue.

So why don't my CPU/case fans have serrated edges as well? Because they are too small?
