Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nonsense, at the price you should have guessed

I was looking for white compartments to assemble. Best ARGB. They looked decent and met all the requirements. I bought them thinking maybe, just maybe they were halfway decent. As soon as they arrived I popped one into my motherboard. OK, they look good! The LEDs were quite bright and colorful. They moved enough air without making too much noise (my fan speed was set at about 50%). I proceeded to take my pc apart to install all 5 and the controller. I decided to use the controller only for aRGB is fine, personal preference. After putting everything together I turned on the power and was greeted by 2 fans making a lot of bearing noise at 100% speed. Disappointing. I play at fan speed and I can make it down to 70% quiet, maybe I can live with that. The problem is that my computer runs at 100% every time it starts and makes a lot of noise for the first 10-15 seconds. It should be noted that these fans only make noise when placed upside down on my case and blow outwards. In other orientations they are decently quiet. Now I need to figure out that the LEDs are out of sync with my motherboard. Find out that you have to hold down the small button on the controller for 3 seconds for them to sync to the motherboard. The problem is that you have to do this every time you start your computer. lame. In my opinion, they should save their settings after shutdown so that they can continue when you turn your computer back on. When I start the computer for the second or third time, the controller stops responding. He alternately glued LEDs from red to white and had no choice. The button no longer does anything to change modes or sync to the motherboard. The fans work great when connected directly to the motherboard, but right now I only have 1 header and 5 fans and would need to buy a splitter to sync them properly. It's not worth buying extra items to get along with these mediocre at best fans. Yes, I can't live with them. Waste of time and energy, they will return to Revane. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere for cheap white aRGB fans.

Pros
  • Super for me
