Review on Uphere 3 Pack Computer 120Mm Cooling Computer Components by Darren Anderson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very cool although it now looks like Space Heater Possessed

Overall I'm pleased with the restoration of this particular PC with these 120mm red LED fans from UpHere. Installation was a breeze and the fans work very well for the price and value. I used these 120mm to pull air from the bottom and front of the PC and the main fans to pull air in and out of the CPU. In total I've installed 6 of these fans in a CM Storm Trooper case with little to no issues. They're relatively quiet with some fan noise, but extremely minimal where it doesn't bother or indicate they're on, except for the LED lights, which are noticeable on their own. The box comes with a set of three mounting screws and stickers on each side to reduce vibration noise, which is nice. The only downside I had with these fans was the lack of a fan direction indicator. Corsair and Coolmaster fans usually have a shaped arrow or label showing where the airflow is going. So before each installation, connect them and mark the direction of airflow so you can save yourself from memorizing or repeating it later. I also bought 3 140mm fans from the same manufacturer to help the CPU fan handle the load of airflow, improve airflow and make it look nice. The case was nicknamed "Satan's Little Helper" or "Heater", in any case the fans, looks, price and functionality all went well with this makeover. I would highly recommend them with my time of installing and using them. Hope this review helps.
