 They are more on the side of cosmetic than functional. 8cm fans on properly made PSU have done their job fine for ages, I simply won't choose a PSU becasue I like the fan.

6x20 for me I win the amount of 12v rails contest guys!  Anywhom, I use to buy budget PSU's, I tend to buy better ones these days but I still try non branded every now and then, a bought a cheap ebuyer 700w one ( not good for anything but the most basic system) but it's heavy and does have a fair amount of components in it. As a general rule I would half the rated wattage on cheap PSU's. Doesn't leave you with much wattage after wards, so your the cheaper ones will be quite strained all the time, hence all these horror stories about stuff blowing up. |

 In a good, well designed PSU the 12/14cm fan does a great job and moves as much air as it should. Don't know about you, but I'm not taking any other under consideration. Quote:
 And finally - I just like PSUs with bigger fans because I CAN.   mate!pantherx12 - I still envy you that PSU lol I'll talk with my mate in UK, but he lives in Dundee...

I mailed AMD about it about a month ago because I was curious myself and my question was almost identical to yours.
Here is the answer from AMD. Quote:
