Review on πŸŒ€ upHere DP1206-5 120mm Dual Halo RGB LED PC Case Fan - High Performance Silent Cooling Fan with Remote Control by Mark Raj

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Big fans while they last.

The fans are very quiet. Not inaudible, but quiet enough to be easily ignored. Push a lot of air and the RGB is great with a variety of effects and colors. However, I have had these fans for a few months now. For the most part they were fine on my system. Recently, however, they began to fail one after the other. When you start the computer they spin but then stop briefly followed by a loud rattle/squeak/hum as if they are trying to spin but can't. It seems that turning the computer off and on again or pressing the center of the fan can get them working again, but not 100% of the time. I had UpHere fans in my previous system and they have been good for the 1.5 years I have had. Not sure if this is an isolated case with the kit I have as all other reviews seem to be positive but it definitely puts me off the brand for future builds. Kits with 5 fans are too expensive to replace every few months. Note. If possible I will attach a video showing the error the next time it occurs. I'm not going to restart my computer for them to fail now as it took a while for them to work.

Pros
  • Bi-directional Control: The upHere RGB FAN is perfectly upgraded with RF remote controller and PC reset button, making it smarter and more convenient to control power on/off and select your favorite fan speed and light effect.
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.
