Corsair RGB Fan Review! (LL120, HD120, SP120, ML120 RGB Install) 

1:00 SP 1:50 HD 2:35 LL 3:50 ML PRO

First fan review that makes sense thanks man great video

Thanks for explaining better then all the other videos.. subbed.

"I'm not a huge fan"

Thanks man ...video was perfect for me since I have the Corsair 460x case !!!

Yo I appreciate all the help, especially at the right time! Thanks!

I have ML fans from corsair h115i pro rgb. They are very quiet, and they even have a very low rpm mode, about 150 rpm.. really cool. and i even ramped them up to 1200 to check how noisy they are. They are not noisy:D

thanks for uploading in 1440p! Looks great!

Great speakers! MY favorite brand! (I had the SP120 x3 because they were preinstalled in my corsair case, but immediately swapped them for the HD and they are still spinnin!)

I’m watching in 2020, looking at the differences between SP and LL, good review , precise and to the point, good visuals on the B-roll, so you got a new subscriber, good job 👍 Just to point out, now the SP triple fan pack comes with the new lightning node core (a fan hub and led controller in one unit).

Please pardon for shouting, BUT THANKS FOR THIS!!! i HAVE LOOKING EVERYWHERE FOR THIS VERY COMPARISON FOR CORSAIR BRAND FANS, FINALLY THIS IS IT!

Exactly what I wanted to find out after hr of searching, thank you !

Great Review, thanks!

What I love about the HDs is whether they are mounted intake or exhaust you can see the LEDs perfectly unlike the other models

Black Friday sales are great. Picked up a 3 pack of SP 120 rgb pro fans cheap.

I'm having a hard time deciding between LL and ML. Which one is more quiet in your experience? I use my PC for RU-vid editing and very light gaming. My goal is reduce background because I want to keep my PC on while filming. Currently using the SP120/140 fans.

Clearly FANaticle about Corsair products!

this was useful. CHEERS!

I just got the LL120mm triple pack fans for 85$ on a good deal from amazon, cant wait to try em

This is fantastic

You are great... Hi from Italy!

what do you think is better for fan quietness, keeping the pc cool, and cooler color effects? 2 top ML fans and 4 LL fans? Or 6 LL fans?

What are the manual buttons that he´s talking about here 1:34 ? I have de SP fans but i never knew how to change the RGB without a controller

Great review! If you ad QL140, wich one do you prefer?

Using a Corsair 3/1 cable can you get the Corsair fans too sync with Aura Sync

Whats the lowest number of revolutions you can get with the SP 120? My ones are way to loud on a B350-f from Asus and I'm not able to controle them lower?

the white ll120 fans are now the top performing in the 120 size, at 63 cfm.

Love the intro.

Clear and straight to the point. Take a sub

I’m going to use the icue 220t with 5 ll120s and the radiator for my msi sea hawk x

PC Centric you say you need a lighting node pro? can i vask with the sp120 fans (IM REFERRING TO THE SP120 RGB FANS NOT JUST THE SP120 SO THE NEWER MODEL TO THE ONES IN THE VIDEO) the triple pack you get whats called a lighting node core, does that mean i dont need the node pro? i hope so. Also do you have an amazon link that will help the channel so i can buy them with the h100i rgb AIO cooler. Your channel hasd helped me so many times so would like to say thank you even though you most likrely dont make a lot but everything helps as my nan would say lol

If i buy the SP ones that means that i cant controll the lighting?

Great Video please keep them coming If i want to install 3 hd fans what cintrollers do i need and what changes if i want to install 4 fans?

That case is a real looker!

What do people tend to use on their radiators besides the SP series? What would be the second best to use? ML? I feel like the HD and LL are more for looks so they're most likely Air Flow fans and not Radiator fans.

In my new build i chose the 5000x case and I could only source 2 packs of 3 HD120's (i dont like the diffuse rgb ones like SP/LL/ML). The QL fans are actually somewhere in the middle aesthetically.

Great video

i think the HDs look the best with how the light is defused on the blades instead just on the ring/s

can i use sp and ll fans in one case and control them together?Or do i have to use either sp or ll to control them together?

What is the pc case you're using in this video?

Thanks!

I prefer the HDs over the LLs... I just bought the lls to replace my Hds and after installing them decided I like the look of the HDs ALOT more in my setup, I love how the light bleeds out of the clear frames, especially when mounted up top on my radiator!... Also the HDs are def brighter than the lls.... Personally preference of course but after having and using both I can def say I prefer the HDs

Can the sp120 do rainbow effect?

I'm planning on buying the H100i RGB Platinum. But I want to buy RGB fans to pair with the fans on this AIO (as in connecting RGB effects in iCue like you see in all those nice builds). I need one airflow optimized fan for the front (as I am going to mount the AIO radiator and the (included) ML120 RGB fans to the front) and two airflow optimized fans for the back of my case (one in the rear and one on top). As I only have space for one 120mm fan on the top of my case, I want one fan there and I cannot mount my AIO radiator there. That's why I'm going to mount the radiator in the front. As the ML120 PRO RGB fans are static pressure fans (so optimized for radiators and tight spaces, only applicable for me for the AIO radiator itself) I need in total 3 airflow optimized RGB corsair fans that will match the ML120's on the H100i RGB Platinum. Because I need airflow optimized fans, I do not want to buy more ML120's as they're static pressure fans. Any suggestions on airflow optimized RGB fans that'll match the ML120's on my H100i RGB Platinum? I know Corsair has their AF line-up of airflow fans, but they're not RGB. I do not know what the LL series do. Are they airflow fans? Or static pressure? Does it matter if I would mount the static pressure ML120 fans as exhaust fans? Or doesn't it matter THAT much because the ML120's have better performance than the LL120's? Should I go for the LL120 RGB fans? Or something else? Also, if I would f.a. buy the H100i RGB Platinum and 3 LL (or ML) fans with a lighting hub/lighting node pro. Do I have to plug the ML fans of the H100i into that hub along with the other 3 fans? Or do they connect separately into the H100i and can I choose whatever fans I want as they have their own hub? (I've read on some compatibility issue between different fan types and their hubs). I could not find anything about the airflow/static pressure subject on these two fans. I already know that the LL fans have worse performance but look better but then again, the ML fans are for radiators and are the LL fans meant for cases and are they good enough? All in all, a whole story. If you read this far, I appreciate it and if you would help me decide, you'd help me even more! Thank you in advance!

Oddly enough max air flow wise the HD series still rain surpreme . Kinda wish max rpm was not gimped on the LL fans

Best fans

i just got the ll120 white series fans, goes from 260 to 2500 rpm. 2500 rpm is very loud. What will cool my pc for ll120 2500 rpm or ml120 at 1500 rpm. Forget noise.

Idk why this dude disregards the hd 120s. In my opinion they are the brightest and the coolest. They are also in the mid range price of both the 2 other fans. I have 6 hd 120s and I dont regret a single one

How do these compare to the TT Riing Trio and TT Riing Quad fans?

so glad for that refund from the IRS I just got, just ordered myself the 570 X, 3 more fans a new PSU and GPU.

Can Thermaltake software be used with Corsair fans? Corsair looks better, but thermaltake software has a mode that reacts to sound and music which looks awesome with RGB.

ragging just bought ML fan on ebay. The seller advertised them as ML's when I open the box found out they were 3pin SP140's. has anyone used a build with 2 ML'S 2 LL and 2 SP's . I was going for 2 LL as intake fans in the front of the PC and then 4 ML as Push Pull. I just dont know if commander pro will be ok with 6 different fan connectors and how air flow will be with ML and SP as push pull. The ML have this nice rubber finish on corners where SP dont have anything to stop noise vibrations

with LL120RGB or ML120RGB , do I need a commander pro controller or just use the things inside to get these lights.

I dont know if I should get the sp120s or ll120s

Guys Im looking for a silent fan but dont have a lot of money. As I can understand from some reviews i watched, sp is the best budget fan but i would love to hear from you people so please reply

Random question, but what desk speakers are those?

i think the HD look the best with the RGB options

2:48 what effect is that?

i love this comparison!!!!!!!!! please please more depth please, i.e. sync with led strips, mixing LL with Ml with HD !!! etc....

MLs seem great.

In a Corsair 460x , what i need to run 6xhd120 or 6xLL20 fans correctly with the corsair link ? Commander pro ? 2 Lightning nod pro ?

Any recommendations for cheap RGB fans that allow software control through the motherboard out of the box?

So, which are static pressure? What's the CFM, dBA?

Hd120 and Hd140 are the best by far. Looks,color and speeds

I have corsair memories and the icue program does not recognize it to be able to configure the leds, I have installed several versions and it only recognizes the motherboard

If ill conect 120ll fans and 140ll to 1 controller, it will work correctly?I have 570x case and not sure if ill put 3 120ll in the front ,2 140 on the top ,1 140 on the back, will they glows synchronously ?

Should i change the SP 120's in the Corsair crystal 570x (white) or should i get HD120's ?

The HD ones definitely look better to me in my opinion. The colour is much better defused over the blades; giving it a better blended look.

will this work for the lighting node CORE?

none of these reviewers shows the back of the fans.

Could u pls make another video and put them next to each other to compare

Hi! I would like to buy this HD 120 but do i have to buy an extra remote or anything to control the RGBs etc?

is it possible to have 2 controllers for the rgb? is it going to have sequential effect to be correct? because i got 7 hdfans

whats the difference between ll120 and hd120 should i get ll120?

That fucking intro music is legendary

Which studio monitors are those?

I disagree with you on the HD's. I have all HD's and I love how they stand out. The led light strips from corsair match perfectly. They just pop so well together.

usefull cheers for the future, and itz realy time to get a new pc for me, mine is half a decade old, could use some help if any1 knows ive just got a new graphics card but it diden´t solve my pc problem, i can boot up the system fine but i dosen´t go past the "loading windows" screen any sugestions what the problem can be is appreciated,

Should I buy the h100i platinum then replace the fans with hd 120’s?

Which monitor do you use on a daily basis? What is your favourite monitor?

How much difference in temperature when using ML fans over LL fans?

if I get the LL's and only get the lighting node pro do the fans just run at some default speed or what?

Am i the only one that clearly can see the hd fans are brighter than the ll? Seriously, they look so much better.

hey i need your help again please! how you know i already got 2x 120LL fans and i dont have any controller so the rgb is not lighting up... can i connect LL120 and ML120 to the same lighting hub?

LL120s in white are apparently out of stock around me.. I dont wanna pay corsair 50 bucks with shipping for a single fan. I bought one from amazon Last year late December but after just now buying the node AND commander pro I find out this fan is defective and only shows blue and green color, no effects either..

I disagree with your disregard of the HD's and many comments here as well feel the same. I personally like the look, not just a black frame with lights in it, instead it is completely transparent and shows the lights better in my opinion.

Where was the instal?

But which is best for radiators? Can anyone advise?

What's the name of the PC case?

yes you do that's not true u get a lighting nod in the box with the hd 120s and the hd 140s

I watched 10 reviews of these fans why the does no one mention can you set a static color???? can you set a different static color on the inside ring???

ML and LL rgbs on both side like the HD's?

Can u do the multi color rainbow with the sp120

All of my fans freeze. Helppp

all but the HD ? :(

My favorite Corsair RGB lighting. HD LL MLL PRO SP

Can the SP120 be controlled by the lighting node too?

Can i use a nzxt fan controller instead?

Which is most silent?

I don't know why he disregards the HD fans they have the best specs than any of the other 3 take a look, straight off corsairs website... LL: 43.2 Airflow, 1500 RPM, 1.61mm SP ML: 47.3 Airflow, 1600 RPM, 1.78mm SP SP: 52.0 Airflow, 1400 RPM, 1.45mm SP HD: 54.4 Airflow, 1725 RPM, 2.25mm SP
