Forget the $2.99 fan altogether.  It is a cheap piece that will burn out very quickly.  The ball bearing fan will last longer, but will run all the time at a constant speed, which is not all that bad.  The $6.99 fan has ball bearings and connects to the mobo connector.  It will be turned on and controlled by mobo if your mobo supports this feature.  This last fan would be the best, but you should call Micron to see if the mobo supports it. If not, the $6.19 fan will do the job OK.

>I need to replace the case fan on a Micron Millenia XKU 300 tower model. I called Micron and was told that the fan is 92mm variable speed. I am going to order it from http://www.cyberguys.com but out of the three available I don't which is the right one. Here are the options:
>
>Case Fan, 92mm Case Fan @ $2.99
>Case Fan, 92mm Ball Bearings @ $6.19
>Case Fan, 92mm Dual BB W/MB Connector @ $6.99

>What's the difference between these three and how do I choose?
