Review on πŸ”΅ upHere 5V 3-Pack 120mm Silent PWM Intelligent Control RGB Fans - Motherboard Sync, Adjustable Colors (T7SYC7-3) by Jack Malloy

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Old Molex power connector, noisy fans and PWM function didn't work.

Uses a 4-pin Molex power connector instead of SATA. And it is not mentioned anywhere on the product page or shown in the pictures. Pretty annoying as most builds with a modular PSU don't add a 4 pin molex cable as it's no longer used and takes up a lot of space. LEDs around the outer ring. They still look nice and shine bright enough for their purpose. The LED animation in rainbow mode is quite choppy, it doesn't look smooth or very pleasant. The noise level at full speed is quite audible, these are not silent fans, I wouldn't want to run them at full speed which wouldn't be a problem if I could get the PWM function to work, but despite trying a hub on multiple 4 -pin headers The PWM on my motherboard (including the CPU socket which I'm 100% sure works) I couldn't get the fans to slow down from their maximum speed of 2000RPM. The packaging also needs improvement, there is no material around the fans when packed in a box and they are packed tightly so even a simple drop in the packaging could damage something, several mounting tabs were broken on one of the fans.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not as good as it says
