Surprisingly Quiet, December 5, 2010

Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?)
This review is from: Cooler Master 120mm Red LED Case Fan – (R4-L2R-20CR-GP) (Electronics)

After reading some reviews which said this fan was quiet and the rest which said it was noisy i got confused, but i had already ordered it, so i connected it today and surprisingly it wasn’t as noisy as i was expecting it to be, @ 2000rpm, and it moves quite a lot of air too.

Would recommend, ordered a second and will put them on my CoolerMaster hyper 212 cpu cooler, then put its 120mm fan on the bottom as I want the led fans centermost in the case to spread that lovely red glow around!

Meh… bad batch perhaps?, July 28, 2009

This review is from: Cooler Master 120mm Red LED Case Fan – (R4-L2R-20CR-GP) (Electronics)

I wrote a review a few months ago when I had purchased these fans, praising their quality and performance. I regret that I am taking it back now. I bought three of them for my Cosmos S and I wont lie, they were awesome. They looked great, moved a ton of air and didn’t make too much noise for 2000 RPM.

About six months later, all three of them are dead while my two other Coolermaster fans live on. One of them simply doesn’t work, probably burned out. The other two sound like jackhammers and nothing I did was able to restore them. I don’t understand why. They rarely spun full speed because I don’t overclock and game that much and I always keep my case clean.

I purchased three of the standard 1200 RPM fans from CM, as they seem pretty reliable — two of them have been merrily spinning in my case for over a year now without issue.

I’m not sure if I had a bad batch or tough luck but these fans were a bit disappointing.
