97mm Ball Bearing CPU Fan

The OEM Industries PMB1297PYB1-AY is a 97mm ball bearing fan designed for CPU air cooling. It suits builders replacing a noisy or failed cooler fan in a compact tower or proprietary chassis. The three-pin connector provides direct voltage control without PWM complexity.

12V .7A Power Draw and Airflow Headroom

Operating at 12V with a .7A current rating, the fan delivers steady airflow for low-to-mid TDP processors. It handles typical office workloads and light gaming thermals. Sustained heavy compute loads may exceed its cooling capacity.

3-Pin Mounting and Clearance Fit

The 97mm frame matches legacy Intel and AMD reference coolers using three-pin headers. No LED lighting keeps the build neutral. Builders must verify screw-hole spacing and shroud clearance before installation.

Questions about this item

Will the 97mm frame and 3-pin connector fit the mounting holes and header on my older motherboard?

The fan uses a standard 97mm square frame and a 3-pin power connector, matching the mounting pattern and header found on most legacy boards.

How can I confirm the dual ball bearing motor is spinning correctly after installation?

Connect the 3-pin header, power on the system, and verify the fan rotates smoothly at 12V .7A; the tachometer wire reports RPM in BIOS or monitoring software.

Does the package include mounting screws or a 3-pin to 4-pin adapter, or must I buy them separately?

The box contains only the PMB1297PYB1-AY fan unit; mounting screws and any connector adapters are not included and must be sourced separately.
