COLOR VOMIT - Fan & Cooling

If you think that more RGB means more performance, you're right. My temperature would explode if I turned off the light. Of course I didn't try it for fear of a temperature rise, but I'm 100% sure and don't need evidence to back up my facts. I only wish I had 140mm RGB fans for my AIO for extra performance.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Fade Hardware

Works well, RBG is reliable

The fans work well and are fairly quiet, if your goal is a quiet PC they may make too much noise for you. I'd love to see a braided fan cable but other than that they work well and the RBG is great!

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Secret

quality built. Bright colors.

Good quality, well known brand, very bright colours. Better than regular Airblazers, IMHO. These are more of a static pressure fan. If you have permafrost silverstone pf240. They fit exactly to the supplied fans. They are ARGB (3 pin) so make sure you have a 5v 3 pin argb connector, not a 12v 4 pin. You can use the controller that came with the pf240 and chain the fans together. This is how I did it with a header without argb. Looks great

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Slightly torn

ARGB PWM fans with the best value for money.

After installing 6 of these fans on my computer, 11 fans in total, I can say they are quiet and work great. My computer stays cool when running small Prime95 FFTs for over 30 minutes and the ambient temperature doesn't exceed 40°C. I used 2 of these fans in a push-pull configuration with a Noctua NH-U12S on a Ryzen 5 3600. All CPU overclocking features such as Precision Boost Overdrive and AutoOC have been disabled for more objective and consistent results. With an idle temperature of 37 °C and

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • I'm nervous

Avoid. Fans not working, customer service not up to date

These fans were fine, a bit noisy and rattling. They eventually broke down (about 8 months of use). That may be fine, but to add insult to injury, customer service is not up to par. Expect to pay for return shipping. Given the shipping costs to California, I've decided to ditch the fans and use another company in the future.

Pros
  • Looking forward to
Cons
  • No paint required

Greatly underestimated cooling fan

To be honest I was shocked at how good this fan is. It offers high performance, remarkably quiet sound even at high RPM, and the RGB is great at light diffusion. The design and build quality are pretty basic, which is a good thing. This is probably the best RGB fan I've ever used and I've ordered two more for the front intake.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

They have been good for a while

I have ordered 3 of these to put on the radiator, within a year I have had one that got very noisy and one that started making occasional noises . I've never had a single fan fail so quickly on any other computer, except maybe tiny chipset fans from 15-20 years ago. I've already ordered Noctua fans for replacement and will probably just throw them in the trash.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • There are flaws

Love the light spread

My only problem with them is that now in my case they don't match my other fans. I no longer have a 240 Silverstone AIO CPU cooler. I got the fan as a third fan for the front of my PC case, matching the two that come with the AIO. They are bright and spread the light evenly, which makes the fans glow. I'll try to add a photo later.

Pros
  • Good workmanship
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
