I have seen the vantec blower card on many sites, im wondering would it be worth getting, dose anybody have one? what do you think of it??
 
Do you mean the slot fan, the one that goes into an empty slot on the pci card area of the case? if you are running a stock computer that seems to run hot it will help keep the air moving to make you feel better, but realy does not cool all that much. I could not see a difference in the case temps of my rigs, but it helps my dad's and mom's run a little cooler, as both are stuffed into a corner under their desks, there is no air movement without the fans that i added, so it was an improvement for that application, and theyare quiet which was of the most critical of the items with them. (burning up the computer was ok as long as it was quiet when it did it}

If you are looking for something to work well these are not it,and OC'ing needs alot more air movement.
 
I found them to be surprisingly good. They definitely can help cool your GFX card if placed well, and is a convenient way to add fans to cases without enough fan vents.
 
You mean the Vantec Spectrum Fan Card?

I've read a few reviews of it and so far they've been positive. The one thing they all mention is that the fan card is a bit noisy when you set the speed to maximum.
