could we have an update for 2024?

@HardwareCanucks Год назад

The following fans were tested but didn't make the "grade" for this video (ie their performance was worse than what you see here): Fractal Prisma RGB NZXT Aer RGB 2 NZXT F120 RGB Corsair QL series Thermaltake Pure 12 Montech AX120 ID Cooling Crystal 120 White DeepCool FC120

@KellyWu04 Год назад

The FC120 is so bad? I thought they were decent when looking at LS720 performance.

@Crystalblade564 Год назад

performace was worse? what does it mean? While Fractal Prisma AL-12 and AL-14 have alot higher CFM/Static pressure/airflow than some of the fans in the video? So those stats are not valid in real world?

@xypod Год назад

I did not expect the NZXT fans to be *that* bad. I have some AER 2's in my case. That said im glad this video exists for that!

@KellyWu04 Год назад

@@Crystalblade564 each manufacturer tests the stats differently and at max speeds. They are not comparable.

@mikas2934 Год назад

Was hoping you'd test the silverstone air blazer 120r. Pretty cheap here in Australia, ARGB, decent claimed stats, goes up to 2200 RPM. Also, I saw you tested the SL120s in another comment, but did you test the SL120 infinity by any chance?

@Keeks33 2 месяца назад

What a fantastic video! Thank you guys for taking the time to do this. I was having a hard time finding tangible results for an RGB fans setup, and you guys absolutely nailed it. This was incredibly helpful.

@violentnomadx2436 Год назад

First off, excellent video. The production quality, expansive product coverage and reliability of information really make this channel second to none. I’d love to see the Lian Li SL-Infinity in future content as they are the best looking fans in my opinion, however expensive they may be. It would be interesting to see how they compare, especially since they haven’t gotten much technical coverage. Once again though, really appreciate all the great work from the Hardware Canucks Team!

@nycplayboy78 Год назад

Yes I agree with ALL OF THIS!!! I agree that the Lian Li Uni SL Infinity fans are the best looking fans out there :)

@wrenchviking8527 Год назад

I have been incredibly pleased with my Silverstone AB120r's. They perform really well as both case and radiator fans and the ARGB, while not particularly flashy, is very competently done with smooth transitions and very even diffusion. They're so quiet that you forget about them most of the time and when they do ramp up to audible levels, it's at a nice low hum with no whine. And that's with 12 fans in my system.

@HandsomeAlex25 Год назад

That was such a thorough analysis! I did not expect a video about RGB (fans) to be so engaging! This is a great reference video for lots of prospective buyers.

@deuswulf6193 Год назад

Used the thermalright fans for my rig, totaling about 11 fans. They are great! It was $13 for a triple pack. $11 for the non rgb ones. By far one of the bets price to performance fans on the market right now.

@dennissmith1435 Год назад

Great content! Most thorough fan evaluation I've seen. In my most recent build, I chose non-RGB fans. Before seeing this, I had come to the conclusion RGB fans generally didn't perform as well as non-RGB fans, which you have shown. I've used plenty of RGB fans in builds, but decided to focus on performance and go light on the RGB (pun intended). The Silent Wing Pro 4 are good looking fans, just no ARGB. EK has also been one of my go to fans and I'm glad the new Loop fans perform so well. Thanks to the content I also have some new candidates to consider.

@valtarg1299 Год назад

Thank you for testing fans Even thought they might not have the most impact on performance, it always interesting to have details and choose what is the best especially when on a budget and you care about airflow

@frontwing67 Год назад

I have an Arctic P12 ARGB on my towercooler and a P14 ARGB in the back of my Lian Li Lancool 216. Airflow is steady as a rock, low temps and low noise for a fair price, couldnt be happier .

@christernordlander1354 Год назад

This was one of the best fan reviews, ever! Well done! 👌🏻

@TheJjjoj Год назад

The thermalright tl-b12S are technically pre-release. Thermalright has a tendency to put their products on their website 2-3 months prior to their actual availability on the market. The non-rgb b12's(regular not the extreme) are absolutely fantastic. The B12S (RGB) should be within striking distance of the regulars if thermalright maintains their usual consistency. The c12s are just slightly worse than the c12 likely due to the less rigid plastic RGB fans have to use.

@dylancnguyen Год назад

I would LOVE to see how the Phanteks D30-120 fair in this comparison. I seems like they had a lowkey launch last week and almost immediately sold out, but they seem quite promising.

@HardwareCanucks Год назад

We asked and they only sent for a build to Dmitry. Not to our main lab....red flags right there...

@MayonnaiseOreo Год назад

@@HardwareCanucks That's too bad because I was really curious how they'd compare to the rest of the lineup. I have Lian Li SL120 Infinity fans so I don't need new ones but Phanteks has always been my favorite non-RGB fan.

@yukisnoww Год назад

looks kinda ugly tho, if i am paying that price, i go for lianli fans

@krazyfrog Год назад

Another factor to cover with these fans is how they look from the back. A lot of the time with some of these O11D inspired cases you end up mounting your fans backwards and how the fan looks from the back becomes very important. It's especially the case with ARGB fans since they draw attention towards themselves and sometimes aren't that well designed from the back as you showed with the Squa. The only proper solution here seems to be reverse spinning fans or something like the Deepcool MF120 GT, which has a very unique inverse hub design.

@HardwareCanucks Год назад

Yeah I did cover it with the be quiet and enermax. The others are pretty plain Jane.

@wrenchviking8527 Год назад

@@HardwareCanucks This is one area where I think the Thermaltake SWA-fan would have been an appropriate addition. But, since they sponsored the video, I can see why you may not want to have their fan included to avoid any percieved bias.

@HardwareCanucks Год назад

I agree about the SwaFan and I wish I could have some here....but for some reason Thermaltake has been really hesitant to send us samples. And after this video and another one that's coming up, our samples budget is getting pinched pretty tight right now.

Год назад

For back illumination phanteks has some nice rgb frames. They have the advantage of working with non rgb fans too.

@charnel8480 Год назад

@@HardwareCanucks There exists a reverse spinning version of the Thermalright C12S called the C12R-S, hope you guys would be able to obtain a sample of those as that would probably be the top budget choice for that niche.

One fan I don’t see on the list that I’d like to see tested next time (if you’re able to), is the Thermaltake ToughFan 12 RGB fan. On paper, it looks like a similar/better offering than Be Quiet’s LW HS fan. Seems like a fan that would do okay under noise normalized tests and I think would be interesting to see how the results stacked up. I think it could be a good fan for people who REALLY care about noise, but still want decent performance.

@VetteTTV12 Год назад

I'm not sure if I missed the specific radiator used in the restriction test, but I'm assuming it's the A60. Would you please use a more standard 45mm thick 18FPI radiator for this? I believe it would make the results much more accurate since a fair amount of AIOs are now 45mm and the majority of custom loops use 45mm rads.

@confusedcounsel5285 Год назад

Yes, but with some MX 2.54 or just standard Dupont 2.54 connectors you can connect any RGB to Corsair. The pin out is 5V DO DI GND. Yep same as on motherboard, but on Motherboards the data in pin is missing because motherboard does not want to hear back from the RGB. The date out pin on the fan is to pass the signal back to the hib so it can be passed to the next fan in the sequence.

tbh the Arctic P12 argb is super decent at such quiet levels. Plenty enough to keep my 12700k (360mm aio) and 3080ti (240mm aio) both under 70 degrees at load. Could my temps be better? Sure, probably by 3-5 degrees - but these fans MAX out at 39db! I know in the low db radiator tests they were mid-pack, and I'm not surprised by that, but I still think they're a steal in the price:performance:noise level:looks race... As for the looks, one thing you failed to address on any fan here except the weird-ass SQUA, is that the overwhelming majority of argb fans just don't look good when viewed from the back - which most fans running as intakes would be. I honestly think this is super important, almost always overlooked by reviewers and manufacturers alike, and yet is one of the biggest deciding factors in my (and likely others') choice for argb fans. The P12 argb (like very few argb fans) has that continuous ring connecting the outer edges of the blades which I can tell you honestly reallllllly helps it look significantly better and more vibrant from the back - the light spreads all the way out the outer edge so well. Way more so than most typical and popular argb fans. I don't care how bright and diffused the hub lighting is, if the hub is mostly blocked by plastic on the backside.

I was stress testing a data analysis PC today, I didn't want to use an AIO, gfx weren't important but the mobo & air tower cooler I chose has ARGB features. So just for adding a little fun to an unassuming Fractal Define compact case, I tried the thermalright as the exhaust fan. After 45mins of stress testing with NO fan tuning, still had 100% utilisation near the max boost on all cores and < 70C. The cheap Thermalright was shifting plenty of exhaust air but the box was really pleasantly quiet. I had non RGB, RGB cooler fan and then the Thermalright in series, yes my AIO offers lower temps, but using a case in solid configuration this was quieter as AIO are then constrained to either 120mm exhaust rad or an inherently non-optimal front mount. For an office or a study I'd take the Thermalright and just reduce the fan rpm a little
