APEVIA AF312L-SRD 120mm Red LED Ultra Silent Case Fan w/ 15 LEDs & Anti-Vibration Rubber Pads

PROS:-15 LEDs, incredibly bright-Really nice, dark blue color-Moves a decent enough amount of air-Super duper cheap-Comes with both a female 4 pin molex and a female 3 pin connector-Reasonably quiet, currently they're spinning at maximum RPM and it's not very noticeable.-Arrived with mounting screws-All LEDs arrived workingCONS:-Definitely do not move as much air as ThermalTake Riing or Corsair fans of the same size-The dual connectors for the fans are a nice courtesy, but they make cable management more difficult due to the extra bits flopping about-The blue in the picture is far brighter than the actual LEDs. I was hoping for a brighter cyan type color based on the product images.OTHER THOUGHTS:-These fans are cheap, so obviously they're not going to move as much air as the name brands. However, they get the job done and look fantastic doing it.-The misleading product images are disappointing, but it's not worth docking a star.-If you're looking for subtle lighting and/or using a light strip, you will probably not want these fans. They are incredibly bright and most likely illuminate the case by themselves. I have fans set in all available spots on my Inwin GT1 and the entire rig is visible from the window.-I have three of the pink ones, paired with three of the blue ones, all connected together through a Sentry Mix 2 fan controller. Turning down their voltage also dims their LEDs, so you can lead your system idling while you sleep if you need your PC run overnight.I will add pictures of the set up later, and will update anything in this review if anything changes.

absolutely amazing! These fans are incomparably brighter than your average corsair led fans, and with great color saturation too! They are also a little bit quieter. Unlike Corsair, Apevia fans come with a molex option in addition to the standard 3 pin, which saved me an additional purchase just trying to be able to plug them all in. I bought both these and some corsair fans to put in my pc and when I was done I was awfully disappointed with corsairs fans, finding a way to plug them in took too long with less options available, and they made an annoying screech sound every once in a while. I can barely see the corsairs light next to apevias even in complete darkness with only the fans light. But wait, there's more! (sorry) These are also cheaper than corsair! After buying these, I will never buy any other fan. I love these beautiesthe picture is of 3 green apevia fans installed. As you can see, the purple corsairs are almost invisible in comparison

So fun story... I bought these awhile back and didn't put them in. I ended up deciding to do a complete rebuild and give my old setup to my mom. I threw a single one of these in it to give her some nice pink light.As for my own, I decided instead to buy "Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML240L RGB All-in-one CPU Liquid Cooler with Dual Chamber Pump" for my new build. Well, after I was done installing the cooler master, I noticed the fan connectors didn't reach the slot on the motherboard they were to go into. And even if they had, the 4pin connector for the LEDs wouldn't stay in the male slot because the mobo didn't have a lip on it to keep it from shifting and the 4pin connectors are generally shitty without one.So I ended up removing the fans I had already affixed to the CPU liquid cooler that came with the kit and affixing these instead since neither the LED connectors would function properly or the fan connectors. So now these 18 dollar fans are giving me my only in-case lighting and frankly they're the perfect color and look fabulous. My fiancee unfortunately had to go without on his build (identical to mine) because he didn't want pink fans. His loss in my opinion.As promised these are very quiet and they're a somewhat deeper pink, and could probably pass for a pinkish purple.

I saw these in a build on PCPartPicker and loved the aesthetic so I bought them for my new build. I really like how they look. They are inexpensive fans though and feel like it, but they work well enough. One of the three was DOA when I got them but support was quick to send me a new one that worked just fine. I will say that if you’re looking for advanced fan control these probably won’t meet your needs: my FanControl software can’t detect a fan speed sensor in them. Next time I think I’d buy higher end fans but for the look and price I’m happy.
