Review on GIM Addressable Motherboard Controller Adjustable Computer Components by Jonathan Ulsth

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very important. (NO) in Computers & Accessories

They look fantastic and are as easy to install as any fan. The included controller is a huge bonus at this price point and what you pay for it will blow your mind. (Haha) The tempos are great in my case etc. etc. etc. They're fans, it's not that hard. BUT: They vibrate. A lot of. They have this weird pulsing rhythm that really annoys me. The ones at the bottom of my trunk seem worse, but they all seem to be pulsing and making an annoying unusual noise. What's even weirder, does the sound change when you change the color? You don't notice it at high speed, but then it sounds like a hurricane. (This is how all fans work at maximum setting). I was hoping they would sound better at low settings, but it's hard to ignore the ripple/vibration. My case is cooler and looks good, but I plan to get better fans in the future. Update: It seems it's the controller that's giving me problems, not the fans. This is not my psyche (I have more than enough strength for it). They don't seem to get DC from it and some sort of ripple instead of spinning steadily. A very subtle but noticeable change in noise. You can hear/see it on the video. If they improve the controller it will be a light 5 star product. Maybe mine is just broken, but I have no way of repairing it.
