Edit: Loved it so much I ordered another set. The new RGB chords are much sturdier. The change to the controller is kinda lame, now there are cables on both ends of it making it harder to route and fix outside the case on the back. Overall so stoked about these fans.Original review: Gorgeous, robust, hardy fans with an amazing price tag. The subtle RGB is easily my favorite style to really give your build a clean, sleek look. The connections are a touch loose, but not unreasonably so.I would absolutely buy these again (and probably will soon).Some things to note: the rubber comes in the form of a sticker, which you have to place yourself (I love this, just adds one more DIY task to building a PC).The screws self thread into the plastic clearance holes of the fan. This is a smart, simple way to design the fastening, and only risks stripping the plastic if you are adjusting and moving the fans a lot.The controller has a single button that allow you to cycle through a limited number of modes if you don’t have a 3 pin aRGB connection on your motherboard. My favorite modes are the static rainbow, purple and white. I don’t think I’ll ever use the others.The magnet on the controller is fairly weak. In my case, I routed the fans RGB daisy chain to the back of my case, so I could access the controller without opening the case. For a full sized ATX tower case, this was a stretch. I daisy chained the fan power to the mother board’s fan header, and the speeds are controlled by the MB automatically.Overall, very silent, very beautiful fans with the best price tag. Triple check that your motherboard has a 3 pin addressable RGB connection, otherwise your lighting options will be limited to those programmed into the controller.

Amazing value for the price. Fans feel heavy duty, are quiet, and keep things cool. The aesthetic is crazy nice, I’ve had several people ask me “what fans are those?” in online forums and several say I had the nicest 011 dynamic build they’ve seen.Installation is pretty straight forward but with 9 fans in my rig that means 9 power connectors and 9 RGB connectors... chaining 18 wires was a lot to manage. In addition, the RGB connectors were very loose.. working on cable management would cause things to come unplugged easily, not fun. Electrical tape was an easy fix though.The color combinations with the included controller are not amazing. I don’t really like look of most of the effects... this was my first build and I had trouble getting the RGB to light up when connecting to header on my motherboard... for now I’m using the controller which requires me to open my case if I want to change things. I’m gonna try and tackle that again soon.As for instructions, there were none!Overall for the price though, considering heavy duty quality, sufficient cooling, quiet noise level and great aesthetic design, it’s an easy 5 stars.

For $35 dollars, I was not expecting to get such nice fans. They are quiet, nice looking, and have good airflow. I really don't have anything negative to say about them.Pros- Cheap- High quality- There's 3 of them- Pleasing to the eye- 3 pin RGB (may be a con depending what mobo you have)- Near silent, even when every sound-producing item in my room is off I can barely hear them.- They are not hydraulic bearing, which can just start leaking lubricant everywhere.Cons- Getting the RGB connected can be a slight hassle considering their adapters are a tad short, even for my mATX case, but I figured it out.- Holes in the fan's hub may cause dust to get inside after time.- Exhaust side lights have empty areas between them, so they look a bit off compared to the intake side.Not much else to say! I'd recommend them.

You can't beat the price of these fans. They are well constructed, fairly quiet and work very well. The lighting choices leave a bit to be desired. Why they don't have a normal multi-color slow rotation setting is beyond me, as it's the most common setting with most rgb products. There are too many flashing settings and not nearly enough color choices and rotation settings. MOST people do NOT want their computer to look like a disco!!! Just some accent colors to make it look nice. That's one of the two reasons why I didn't give this product five stars. The second is the included screws are too short, which made installation very difficult. I had to sort of rig them in place, as the screws were too short to screw in both sides equally. Lastly, for those complaining that the interphase pieces came apart too easily, USE YOUR BRAINS!!! You can use several things to keep them together, like paperclips or twist wires. I actually used zip ties and then taped around them with electrical tape. they look and work perfectly. Other than that, these are very good fans, and well worth the price.
