This also didn’t fit in my case but wasn’t a problem, once used is a great fan colours can also be changed overall very good
Brilliant fans, so easy to set up. Everything you need is in the box. They look great and are super quiet. My only slight grumble, and it’s tiny, is that the hub controller doesn’t have and double sided tape on it so I could stick it to the back of the pc somewhere, but it’s not needed as it’s OK to simply leave it placed in the back somewhere. Very happy with these overall.
It is a war crime to call the instructions given a “Manual”
Going from 200s to 3x120s there is a little more noise but it’s expected. The 3 fans and the housing are built well and instalation up against a radiator is soo easy. They seal up against the radiator nicely with virtually no leakage thanks to being a monolithic design. And the really nice thing is for three fans, it’s just 2 plugs. Now I’m really considering replacing the other 3 fans on the second radiator for another one of these.
lights act weirdly when daisy chained, single colour mode is fine, but some effects only work on first fan in the chain. tried official software and openrgb, same thing happens.
purchased these to replace existing computer fan’s, Very easy to change and fit.
connected directly to the mother board and set up fan curves and the lighting.
Working fine a little noisy at higher speeds.
Did not use the control box.
It’s a really good fan and would def buy again plus price is good thanks
Very quiet, can’t work out how to control the lights though, my son’s Asus motherboard doesn’t seem to have the compatible connectors.
It’s a fan it blows air its quite and it lights up happy days
Fantastic fans. Quiet, aesthetically pleasing, 3 pin RGB. Easy to install.
Work on the jrainbow header on my MSI motherboard. Daisychain chain together nicely and can be controlled using mystic light.
I didn’t use the controller so have no experience with the coolermaster software.
A much better option than Corsair which are complex and try to force you to using extra, expensive add-ons.
Highly recommend these fans.
The fan does it’s job great, cooling performance is great, hence it has its noise. The crystalline strip looks amazing. Comes with clips that prevents accidental disconnection between the fans. Overall happy with the product.
Easy to install these run on 3 pin system u get 3pin male and female so you can use which suits your requirements a 4 pin fan connection for power white cables too! these are running off a splitter which is not supplied as bought all 4 individually as randomly cheaper that way and off asus’s motherboards software they look super cool and memorising just need the aio to go with it then the build is complete
Decided to get these fans because, well, cooler master have always been quality products in my opinion. I’ve been a technician for over 20 years and always go for Cooler Master if I can. The fans are nice and solid and illuminate beautifully. However… It clearly states on the product page AND on the box that it is compatible with Asus Aura… I could not, for the life of me, get the software to even find the device, I ended up downloading the Cooler Master Master+ software which identified the fans instantly and after that, I could adjust the fans as I saw fit.
My only other complaints are that they are described as “silent” and they most certainly are not, don’t get me wrong, they are far from loud, but they have more of an audible presence than the previous fans I had, which I only replaced after the bearings failed. The other problem being the instructions within the box, they aren’t particularly clear, so anyone who is maybe not as well versed in computer maintenance might struggle to understand them.
Overall, I’m very happy with the product. They’re good, solid fans that shift a good deal of air and look great while doing it.
The fans look great and move air well even at low rpm. At low rpm though, the motors whine quite audibly so I brought the rpm up slightly and it stopped that but made more fan noise
I initially bought the 14in for my cpu cooler. And i thought this is very nice and silent. So i bought 3 more but 12in for the case coolers. And they all beatifully sync very well with Asus aura sync software. A little pricey compare to other generic unbranded fans. But once you opened the box and observe the fans, you know you have bought a good built quality over cheap stuffs. It remains to be seen how many years this would give me. But if there is anything wrong that happens in the next few months, i will ofcourse update this review.
I have 4 pin connections on my new Asus motherboard for the lighting feature but this comes with 3 pin RGB connection.
The power is standard 4 pin so it will connect and work but I cant have any lighting so it is not what I wanted. Maybe I should have done more research but I found it very difficult to find any information on the connections and there are no instructions in the box either so you have to know what you are doing. The 3/ 4 pin issue is very common so it should be right at the top of the information they display, but it is not.
Noise level is good, not super quiet but fine. They are pretty quiet until they reach 50 percent speed. At 50 percent speed they begin to become slightly louder but still perfectly acceptable. If you wear headphones you dont notice them unless you’re trying to listen out for them. Using an intel stock cooler and having 4 of these fans around 35%, while idle I get 45 degrees on my i5-8400. While running around 55% speed while emulating some PS3 games I got 70 degrees on my cpu, still sounds pretty quiet.
The build quality is very good, they’re made of a nice plastic and have rubber bits near the screw holes so they dont rattle around.
Overall good fans. If you just want some decent argb fans that are pretty quiet and will keep your system at a safe temperature, I assure you these are perfectly fine.
The thing I like most is the “rubber style” case in which the fans are housed. This helps reduce the noise level a great deal. Simple to install, and the lighting effects are excellent. I did have a few minor problems regarding which headers to use on the mobo. There is a compatibility issue with certain makes of mobo, although CM do state that they are comptible with certain ones. Not quite correct though, as I ended having to buy an RGB controller unit to enable the colour effects. None the less, a good product.
The first one I ordered had been returned by another customer, — the box was ripped, the seals missing and the warranty tag ripped off from the fan cable. Also several screws missing. Returning was not as simple as it should be either. I did not realise that these fans were shipped from Germany, so had to drive 20 miles to access a UPS pick up point. Not quite a “free return”!
Overall, very impressed.
Bought this cooler as top plate for my Cosmos. I’ve decided that 1 assembled block will be better than 3 separate coolers with their own wires. And indeed – they have only 1 cable for PWM and one for Aura. Plastic/rubber dampening any vibrations. Cooler is very quiet, especially on silent modes. IDK who complained about noise. I can’t hear any noise even on middle rpm.
So this one is very useful for people who want to put coolers as one block. Less cables, better look.
It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. The two (or three) fans in one unit is something I’m surprised isn’t more common as it does make installation easier and uses less headers.
Not particularly loud, not particularly quiet just good solid fans.
Good quality for the price! I was originally going to shed out over double for Corsair q120 fans but these were a great cheaper alternative. They’re reasonably quiet and have brilliant airflow! Perhaps the only issue I have with them is the lack of rgb available if you are using the controller included and not via motherboard software.
Inside my Coolermaster CM 690 ll Case I now have five fans and I had a Noctua 120 on the side panel but that was making a horrible sound so tried the Cooler Master SF120M on the side panel and no noise except the usual fan noise when on full speed. The Cooler Master SF120M and my two Noctua 140 with the rubber corners not running on full speed and you have a decent quiet pc. You can hear the fan but it’s not annoying. The Cooler Master SF120M is better I think than the Noctua. The anti vibration in the Cooler Master SF120M is excellent and you can daisy chain 3 together. Expensive for a non RGB fan, worth it.
Hey all.
I’ve already got one of these fans installed as my rear case fan and the amount of air it can pull is unbelievable! It has a CFM rating of higher than 90 (90 + 10% = 99) which is the highest I’ve seen for a 140mm case fan. I’m going to replace my 3 front case fans with these but eBay would only let me purchase a maximum of 2 so I bought the 3rd from a different source. I’ve also got a ARGB/PWM hub on order so I can get the absolute potential out of these fans! Highly recommended if package temps are important to you!
