Fan perfection but ...
Of course, these fans are perfect for ventilating a PC case. Even at 25% they maintain a perfect airflow while remaining inaudible. You start to hear them around 45%.
It's just a shame to provide only 4 rubber pads per color (ideally 8 per fan for aesthetic reasons), to put such a short cable and especially to ask 30 francs for it. At this price, it would have been perfect if these two drawbacks had been avoided. But still, the result is worth it.Pro

Expensive but good
Pro
- Look
- Silent at appropriate speed
- Controllability (up to 300 RPM)
Contra
- Only 4 rubbers of one colour but 8 places to mount them
- Extremely high price
- somewhat short cables and no extension included
Top performance - flop fastening
The fans are great! Extremely powerful and quiet when you turn the RPM down.
No rubber frame is included in the scope of delivery - the same ones in 120mm are.
Various colours are also included, each with only 4 rubber corners.
In other words: if you want everything in black, that's not possible.
(There would be 4 as anti-vibration pads at the bottom and another 4 as colour accents).
I now have black/green (black as rubber pads and green as a colour accent)
The fact that the fans are attached with normal screws is certainly due to the 4-pin connector. This would be in the way if you use these pin screws from BeQuiet.
In short: Strong, quiet performance with old-fashioned screw fastening at too high a price.Pro
- Powerful performance at low speed
- inaudible at 500rpm ...
- ... and still high pressure!
Contra
- No rubber frame included in the scope of delivery
- Screw fastening
- Only 4 anti-vibration pads per colour
- General volume
