    Revainrating 3 out of 5

    I thought it would be better, but overall not bad.

    Makes a decent vibration and noise when the rpm reaches 1000 rpm, and this despite the fact that the bearing sliding is a helical thread. Honestly? I was seduced by LEDs, I thought it would work quietly and illuminate the inside of the case! But once again I realized that the main thing is silence and the absence of vibration.

    Pros
    • RGB support. Material quality. Bearing sliding - screw cutting.
    Cons
    • Above 1000 rpm makes a decent noise and vibration. There is no instruction in the kit for connecting RGB (you need to look at the manufacturer's website). No RGB connector included. Price.

    Excellent product, the best quality.

    Quiet. Up to 1500-1600 rpm, the sound is only from the air without extraneous sounds. By 1700-1900 another sound is added, howling or something. I did not notice the difference in sound between 800 and 1100 rpm. Very quiet, comparable to 900 rpm turntables from scythe. I left it at 1200 idle (since the computer is in the closet), set it up with a speedfan. They have been working since the winter of 2022 on the processor. Radiator Sythe Ninja 5 + these tops = 75-80 degrees i7 2600k 5ghz. But…

    Pros
    • Quiet, beautiful (argb), set to cool the processor.
    Cons
    • I did not find it, they have been working quietly for more than a year. If you find fault, the wires could make 5 cm or 10 cm more. In my cosmos s, the corps of norms has risen, but I always want a reserve.

    The product is really good, I'm glad I purchased it.

    I hung the fans on a temperature sensor (from the motherboard kit) fixed at the outlet of the airflow video card (and the temperature sensor that comes with the coolers is only suitable for the backlight control panel and is only needed to change the color of the backlight when the temperature changes (useless nonsense )). Using the remote control, you can activate the mode when the color of the backlight changes depending on the temperature on the sensor, but I use backlight control via ARGB…

    Pros
    • Good air flow at maximum speed. Support ASUS Aura. At rpms up to 1000, they are quite quiet.
    Cons
    • Very noisy at maximum speed. When changing the speed of rotation, there is generally some kind of rumble with vibration. Short wires, do not lay neatly. All three fans are connected via a splitter to one connector on the motherboard without additional power, I don’t know how much this loads the connector. Flimsy body. The backlight could be brighter, although I have two grids in front of them on the case. The kit does not include additional clamps for lighting wire connections, as in the HALO version.

    I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

    I would like the wires a little longer, about 10 centimeters. 6 preset modes and 7 different options of the same color. You can also configure yourself through proprietary software when connected to USB.

    Pros
    • Good equipment. Three revolving, powerful fans with addressable illumination. Mini controller with all the necessary wires for connection. The kit includes splitters for three fans, both for the backlight and the fans themselves. There is a temperature sensor. The small size of the controller, as well as the magnetic mount allows you to place it anywhere in the case. The length of the wires is enough for installation even in massive cases.
    Cons
    • At the fans themselves, the wires for connecting to the motherboard are a bit short. Can be difficult to connect in large cases. The fan casing is a bit flimsy. Vibration may occur at high speeds.

    The purchase brought only positive emotions.

    Not noisy, good turntables with beautiful aRGB! Yes, the cables are a little short, but I always have extension cords on hand to lay everything "beautifully"! I don’t use the controller in the kit, I have everything through aRGB HUB and then to the motherboard. Pictured above is MF120R ARGB, on the sides is another model

    Cons
    • I would not say that it is a disadvantage, since it does not affect the functionality, BUT the cable is short (although it depends on the mother, the case and where you put them).

    The purchase brought only positive emotions.

    In principle, satisfied, works without noise. If you have noise - then reduce the speed through the BIOS, initially there is a maximum. I'm thinking of buying the same without backlight. Has pros: Installed, connected, adjusted the speed - I got exactly what I wanted from him. Its cons: The price is too high due to the backlight, although it is not really needed.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    Great quality, did not expect at all for the price.

    For the proprietary MasterPlus+ software to work, it is necessary to ate the controller firmware. Its pros: Appearance Address illumination Rubberised corners Equipment Cons below: No USB cable to motherboard Short power wires (if the connector on the motherboard is not centered on the edge, but on the bottom or top edge of the board)

    Revainrating 4 out of 5

    No minuses as such, comfortable to use.

    The first impression is a good fan. With further installation and connection, the level decreases: 1. Very poor package (we are talking about a package with 1 fan) - the fan itself, a set of fasteners. EVERYTHING! 2. Short cables. I could not connect the backlight on one of the fans. There are no extensions included. 3. The noise level is not critical, but still high for these speeds (Noctua NF-S12A PWM is much quieter at the same speed) I put 4 (in advance) out of 5. If they fix the problem…

    Pros
    • High quality case fan Places of fastenings to the body are rubberized Beautiful backlight that changes color Compatible with Asus Aura, Gigabyte Fusion, etc.
    Cons
    • Noise level. Poor set. Short cables.

    Good and quality product, but there are flaws.

    According to the characteristics, the range of 650 - 2022 rpm is declared, but in fact, when using PWM control, it confidently starts from 400 rpm. The fan in this mode is absolutely inaudible, but there is no air pressure. The "breath" begins to be felt closer to 900 rpm, at the same time the noise appears. Up to 1200 rpm, the noise is quite comfortable, but it is higher than many analogues at the same speed. At 1500-1600 rpm, the noise is already uncomfortable, but the air flow is serious. At

    Pros
    • Powerful airflow Bright multi-colored backlight with a common connector, compatible with most motherboards from Asus, Gigabyte, MSI. Wide speed range Rubberized pads at attachment points Good balance PWM
    Cons
    • poor equipment Noisy at high speeds

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    A terrible product, not satisfied with the purchase at all!

    Slightly different model at 1200rpm and with 3-pin power, but the behavior is exactly the same. Went pre-installed on the body. But the same appearance, argb backlight and the same 9 blades. Despite the fact that the speed is reduced by almost 800 rpm, the noise starts to be heard already from 600rpm. The noise is extremely unpleasant and at 1200rpm you can clearly hear that this is not the rumble of blown air, but something close to the work of a jigsaw. There is a recording of the sound of…

    Pros
    • Beautiful backlight
    Cons
    • Terrible noise level

    A normal product, however, does not fully correspond to the description.

    I have other fans from cooler master, but no one had such noise If earlier the HDD was the noisiest place, now this cooler Some pros: Beautiful design, the backlight works well, glow normally The connection cables are not long and not short, certainly better than Thermaltake Premium Pure 12 ARGB, there are very long and thick cables, you can’t put them in a compact case Cons below: Maybe I got it with a marriage, but after connecting, the noise from vibration was clearly audible, this sound was

    Good product. for computers and accessories

    Works like a charm. 3 of them on Cooler Master MA621P TR4 support 4.3Hz with AIR COOLED 1950x overclocking at 60°C (not recommended, the weather is usually very cold here). I combine them with 5 Cooler Master MasterFan Pro 140. Works great with Asus Aura. .

    Pros
    • Fan and cooling
    Cons
    • Cable is shorter than other parts

    Bad product from a good brand.

    These fans are so loud that one of them started making a croaking frog noise. I bought 10 and had to return 2 of them as they arrived defective/too loud.
