Review on 🌈 upHere 120mm Case Fan Long-Life Hydraulic Bearing PWM with 5V ARGB Motherboard Sync, 16.8 Million Colors Addressable LEDs, 5 Pack - NK1207-5 by Alex Panda

I bought these for my latest build to add some flair. Installation was as easy as I expected. The included controller is great for cable management and allows me to connect 4 fans (it supports up to 7) with just a 4-pin PWM header and a 3-pin ARGB header, and it comes with double-sided tape, so you can stick it to something behind it and hold it in place. With Aura Creator, I was able to easily sync them to my ASUS motherboard, and the colors matched perfectly with other RGB components from different manufacturers, including the fans that came with my Cooler Master. The AIO.Noise values are great after adjusting the fan curves - they seem to be as quiet as the CM fans mentioned above. Temperatures in my micro-ATX case are great, with three of them being used as air intakes on the front and one + two AIO fans blowing out from the back/top. There are a couple of downsides though: 1. The included controller doesn't remember the RGB settings when the PC is off and needs to be manually re-synced to the motherboard on power up, although the included manual says this should be done automatically for ASUS Aura. To make this easier, I removed the included switch and wired the case's reset button to the controller so I could do this without opening the case, which works well enough. 2. The controller is too thick to fit behind the motherboard back of my Meshify C Mini case, so I had to attach it to the PSU to keep it from dangling. The cables are pretty flimsy without the good sheaths found on more expensive fans, but they seem to work well so I'll take them for the price. Overall, I am very satisfied with their performance so far and would recommend them based on the first impression. I will update this review if anything changes.
