CPU LED FANS FULL
Still, you get a full RGB lighting setup and some pretty strong fans for a fraction of the cost of Corsair's kit. There's no way you'd want to run them at that speed, though, at least not for typical gaming use. Granted, the MF120Rs move a lot of air at top speed, tying the Noctua NF-A12x25 for the highest airflow. In our own tests, the MF120R kit was reasonably quiet at 1200 RPM but completely unusable at its maximum 2000 RPM speed, posting the loudest measurements of any fan we tested-louder than the other 2000 RPM fans we tested, the NZXT Aer RGB 2 and the Noctua NF-A12x25. Even Cooler Master admits it, listing the MF120R at 31 dBA. Add in the fact that additional fans only cost $20 each, and you're set to save a whole lot of money on your cooling setup. And while the package lists for $99, you can usually find it on sale much cheaper. It's still an attractive fan, though, bright and with smooth transitions. That's a lot of money, even if the results are stellar.Ĭooler Master's RGB design is a bit less high-tech than the Corsair LL120s, featuring only fan-blade lighting instead of the second ring around the outside. To use LL120s, you need to commit to purchasing a three-pack of fans with an included Corsair Lighting Node Pro, a package that lists for $120. At mid-range speeds, we found during testing that they tend to be slightly louder than the competition, but at load, they're quieter than just about any non-Noctua fan we tested-and that's only because most of the Noctua fans top out at 1200 RPM, versus 1500 RPM for the LL120. The LL120s are also solid fans, lighting or no. As a result, the LL120s are the brightest and showiest fans we tested and a perfect fit for any RGB addict. Then, a separate ring of light is embedded around the housing's outer edge. Each has a complement of LEDs shining out from the rotor, diffusing light down the blades' length as they spin.
CPU LED FANS PRO
They can look great in an all-glass case or even through a traditional side window, and if you're chasing that full-cyberpunk aesthetic, then Corsair's LL120 Pro RGB fans are the best you can buy. And if you're also looking for the best CPU coolers (opens in new tab), we've got you covered there.ĭo you need RGB fans? No.
CPU LED FANS PC
We've picked out some of the best PC fans we've tested and brought them together below, noting the key points that make them stand out. If you plan on overclocking (opens in new tab), a couple of extra fans (or better ones) wont go amiss to expel that excess heat. We're aware that 'acceptable' is pretty subjective, so its up to you to decide how much noise you're willing to put up with to keep the heat away from your components.Įither way, poor airflow will lead to your poor PC operating at sub-optimal temperatures, that are sure to affect performance and durability of your expensive parts. We tested each of those below in real-life gaming and everyday use settings, and noted the ones that provide the best airflow, at the most acceptable noise levels. PCs with cheap fans inside them often sound like they're ready for take-off, but we've made sure to select fans that do their job, without kicking up a tempest. The best PC fans do two things well: maximum cooling, and minimal noise.
