Review on 🌈 Antec Prizm 120mm Addressable RGB Case Fan Radiator - 3 Pack with 2 RGB Strips by Dave Cavazos

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Great fans at a good price!

Good things first I bought two sets of these fans for different models I made and was very happy with them. When you first open the packaging, the first thing that strikes you is the feel of the substance. These are very well made fans. The frame is dense and stiff, and the blades are made of the same dense plastic. They are very quiet up to about 1100 rpm and although I don't have a decibel meter, they are subjectively no louder than my much more expensive Corsair LL fans. The fans feature dual LED rings that are bright and accurate, giving you a clear view of the brilliant light no matter how the fan is installed. I've used them for both case fans and heatsinks and they work well in both roles. The included LED strips are bright, have accurate colors, and work well with fan LEDs. They're great value for money and are significantly cheaper than their competitors, which is amazing at this age of over $35 per fan. Fell: Cables are a pain. If you have a motherboard with ARGB 5V headers, it's no different than any other ARGB fan, plug them into a splitter, plug into the header and you're good to go. the control unit is dirty. The control box is big, ugly and the RGB ports are weak. It's very easy to break off the pins when you're putting this thing in an already full case, as there really isn't a plug to connect cables to, only pins. It's not something you really want to put outside of the case or in a place where it's visible. So you either have to open the case to change the lighting, or release the reset switch (assuming you have one) to control them. I have one set for about a year, the second set for about 3 months. I had no issues with bearings, noise or imbalance. I really like these fans and would recommend them to anyone looking for quality low noise fans for their build. The controller itself could use making it smaller and more durable, but other than that it was a great purchase.
