Nice that you can get the 120mm and 140mm in the same colors. I really like my GELID 120mm LED fans, but there's no matching 140mm LED fan (only UV) to go with them.

I thought 1200rpm was more about being silent??? would have been nice to see some fans with faster rpm's

Depends on if you're doing liquid/air and your case setup (internal design for static pressure). None of my fans in my system (liquid cooled) are exceeding 1,200 RPMs (even though the ones I have can hit 2K RPMs). My system stays nice and cool, even when playing BF3.

and during 20 runs of LinX??

I remember their first fans in there cases were TRASH!!!

Had to replace all of the ones in my old Nemesis case.

popswala · Apr 3, 2012

These look and sound nice. Look to see if they can hold up to specs listed. Wish there was yellow. Nobody does yellow any more and most fans nowadays you can't get into to change leds.

[H]@RD5TUFF · Apr 4, 2012

Looks nice on paper, but my experience is NZXT fans are on the loud side.

badtaylorx · Apr 4, 2012

25db IS on the loud side....

Nordic · Apr 4, 2012

There are quieter fans with more airflow

badtaylorx · Apr 4, 2012

they do look nice tho....maybe ill give a cppl a try....i loved the fx140s...loud but strong and smooth

I'm not even sure how to reply to that, lol.

I can assure you, that the fans that NZXT puts out these days are reliable, quiet, and efficient.

See! I said that too! "Where's the yellow/amber fans?" I says to them. But nobody tells me nuthin!

Nevermind, I was gonna say roll with 1200rpm fans on your rig, download and run 20 runs of LinX then take a screenshot of your max temps and post it up.

Probably would make a bad comparison due to your CPU being a 3820 and mine being 2500k

I have to attest to this, I have a handful of these that came with my Vulcan, tempest and M59, They compare quite well with other higher named fan's I have used.

When will these Fans be avaible in Germany? or at all? I just could find the 140mm Version on amazon.com but not the 120mm...and none of them in any German Hardwareshop!!

Thx
