Phanteks Pressure Radiator Cooling PH F120MP_BK_PWM Review

860 for a fan that is in fact (at comparable speeds) noisier than Arctic / ID-Cooling / Deepcool of the same size at a price for them, within 350-450 - this is a fiasco! By the way, ID-Cooling is still bad, but even it is quieter and almost 3 times cheaper! I'm looking at the BeQuiet price tag! (bought one) for the same money and regret not buying it instead of the review hero.

I've been buying them for a few years and I'm very satisfied. Never had a single failure, they are quiet and work very well for water cooling installations. The quality is top-notch, with great bearings and well-designed blades. You can't hear them below 800 rpm and they stay under 25 dB at full speed, which is also very quiet. I really can't praise them - I love these fans.

I originally ordered a Corsair ML120 but after a lot of noise (even at low speeds) I switched to this particular fan. I was using this fan as an exhaust fan and the case had some design and filtering limitations so I needed a fan that could handle high static pressure. This fan was an ideal replacement for the ML120, at the same speed the fan was absolutely quiet, even when forced it is almost inaudible. Mainboard/housing and for connection to MB. The fan is also PWM (4-pin), which means that…

I bought 3 of these for my HTPC. I am using a Silverstone HTPC case with 4 x 120mm filter fan intakes. 1 is occupied by the PSU, and 1 originally had the original Silverstone non-PWM fan which I replaced with this one, taking over the once vacant air intakes. Due to the positive pressure method and the tightness of the internal organs, I chose a static pressure fan. I keep the minimum duty cycle at 40% and the install is quieter than a whisper after POST. Before the replacement I was getting…

I've been using Noctua fans for many years as I'm very sensitive to noise. I've tried many fan brands but none compare to Noctua in terms of low noise levels and decent airflow retention. I recently built my first custom water circuit. Nocuta's brown color on the heatsinks is very noticeable, which is not what I wanted. So the search started again, I read a review about the low noise level of this fan, even lower than Noctua's, so I decided to give it a try. I put 3 of these fans on a 360…

These fans are amazing. My computer used to be very loud and it was only enough for cooling. Ever since I replaced all my Corsair fans with these, my computer has been cool and quiet. I set them to 70% all the time and they are incredibly quiet. I have two of these on my Corsair H100i V2 heatsink for my CPU and one on my heatsink on my GPU. In the near future I plan to replace the fan on the radiator with another one. I also bought 140mm for the front of my case. Totally worth the price and…

Good fans, not the best I've used but still good value for money. The only major complaint I have is the sad apology for cable boxes. When by grommet you mean a rubber tube three times the diameter of the cable, cable routing becomes a nightmare. Luckily this was easy to remove. After purchasing the Lux fan light I was expecting good cuffs, instead I got big rubber hoses. However good value for money.

These fans are very quiet! They've replaced some Apeva brushless fans that have seen better days with some Halos kits to make them heavier, further dampen noise, and add lighting. My build went from the sound of a jet engine to the fact I forgot it was in my office! There are 9 of them in one case (push-pull liquid cooler, front panel and back panel) and I don't even notice them here. The airflow speed/pressure is consistent with what you see on the Noctua. Wonderful. It's been 3 months since…

I used this to replace a noisy rattling Corsair fan on my Corsair H60. This fan looks great. close to Noctua but cheaper. It's way ahead of the stock Corsair fan on the H60. The cable has a fiberglass braid. The fan is probably not needed, but it's nice. At 1000rpm it delivers more than enough power to keep the CPU cool and at this speed it's virtually silent. Crank it up to 1800 rpm and it gets loads of airflow and the noise is still very reasonable. It would probably work great as a case…

Great price and very functional. Not noticeable, but helps keep my AMD 3900X CPU idle at 34 degrees and max load at 68 degrees, which is good for this processor. Connected 2 of these fans (push/pull) to a Noctua NH-U12S air cooler. Seems quiet enough as I keep my PC in a cool basement so with PWM installed I really can't hear anything until the CPU is above 45-50 degrees. However, performance depends on ambient temperature and cooling/fan settings. In this build I wanted to use air cooling…
