Buy These Fans - Skip the Corsair, ASUS, NZXT, or Noctua
There are hundreds of different case fans for sale on Amazon. These fans are what you should purchase if you're making a new build or just replacing ailing old fans in a long-term PC that's years old. These Thermalrights make an excellent all purpose replacement. I had bought some ASUS TUF Gaming TR120 case fans as well, and while they look brighter than these, their noise is absolutely unacceptable if you have a mesh case that doesn't shroud internal sound. These Thermalright fans run more quietly and there's barely any performance difference from what the sensors are saying - for a lot less money. These fans are terrific value and will fit just about any case in any orientation, both as intake and exhaust, and work great for CPU heatsink cooling as well. The RGB gives it a nice touch and importantly it is not TOO bright like the ASUS and Corsair case fans. You really don't want to have your computer light up an entire room. I prefer cool, crisp lighting that's easy on the eyes. Also, they are compatible with most motherboard connection ports and not proprietary like some Corsair and NZXT case fans that force you to buy their controllers. These are the right fans for anyone's budget. Just buy them. Don't even bother with ASUS, Corsair, NXZT, or the massively overpriced Noctua fans. They are worth it!

Excellent low cost alternative!
I decided to try out a full compliment of Thermalright products in a "new" full rebuild of my system after having spent the past year or so using the Thermalright Peerless assassin tower cooler (hailed as one of the greatest air coolers ever, often very close to the performance of the king NHD15) with great results. I am very impressed with the value proposition from Thermalright products. They are extremely affordable and extremely effective, especially when considering the cost. These fans and the 360AIO I put in my system on this rebuild are happily operating my system in a Cinebench R23 run with a 5 degree drop in CPU temp and overall multi-threaded score of 34326 at stock CPU settings with the exact same fan and radiator size configuration and BIOS settings. Literally all I did was take all the old stuff out, drop in the new stuff and power it on. I did not change settings in BIOS or fan curves whatsoever. For reference, this setup replaced a full Corsair kit, complete with Corsair 360AIO. Hands down this system is beating the brakes off of the Corsair setup, with less plugs and wires, no software needed, and simple plug and play operation, at a fraction of the cost. I bought the Thermalright equipment for the entire build for less than the cost of JUST the Corsair AIO, which I will be returning. I have watched numerous product reviews on Thermalright components and the number one concern brought up is always longevity and warranty support, although nobody seems to have had to post a video about any of these AIOs giving up on them yet that I have seen. Since my last Thermalright cooler was an air-cooled tower, I cannot make a fair comparison here, but I can offer that even if this AIO dies, I can replace it 4-5 times and still come in at a lower cost than the Corsair AIO. I truly hope that I don't need to do that, but even if I did, it would be cheaper, still plug and play, and still no software issues or bugs, which warms my little heart. Fan noise is a very subjective thing here in my opinion. I am running them at full speed during benchmarks for maximum cooling and yes you can hear them, sure they are "loud," but not nearly as loud as the Cosairs were, and on top of it, the tone is much less annoying. When lowering the fan profile to a "silent" configuration for casual use and gaming, they are nearly inaudible in my house. I don't know what my noise floor is in my house, but we do have kids and dogs and a TV running all the time, and hard flooring, so it is probably noisier in my house than most other's homes. That said, even when these fans begin to ramp up, I still don't hear them over all of that. I only hear them when I max them out. They have not had to ramp up that high during normal use, so unless I do it manually, it is literally of zero concern to me and I think you will have a similar experience. I know big name reviewers with decibel meters and controlled environments for testing can speak in much more detail with evidence here on the topic, but frankly, that is not how most of us live, probably. Overall, I think noise will not be an issue for you. If you are coming from Corsair like I did, they are quieter in the same configuration. I know that much. The tone is better as well whenever they do begin to ramp. The lighting is great. They can get painfully bright if you want to. I have mine dimmed down so I have a splash of color without going blind. They are decently diffused. I have seen better, but at much higher cost. Sadly, I have also seen WORSE at higher cost. Overall, lighting performance is great. They do not have rings or side lighting, which I know if very popular currently, but I personally don't care for that feature. Only the fan blade light up on these, and I like it a lot. The frame of the fan does a good enough job to reflect or highlight the light to provide a clean and crisp look. Construction is sturdy and gives me no impression of weakness. Anti vibration pads are built into the frame and present on both sides which is very nice. The included screws are very minimalistic and won't stand out or make your build look like it was bolted together with garbage hardware. Very slim and sleek hardware here. The bite of the screws into the material is firm and positive, without being so tight that you need to use any force to seat them. If you are on the fence about Thermalright, get off the fence and jump on board. Save yourself a TON of money, get stuff that works amazing, looks amazing, and doesn't lock you into a hot garbage software eco-system.

Great performance for a great price
I bought this 5 pack to replace some failing fans in my build, and the quality is solid for the price. Performance is good, they move plenty of air while staying quiet, which keeps my system cool. Paired with the Thermalright fan controller and some BIOS adjustments, setup was straightforward. I’m not into the default RGB flashing, but these can sync with your system, so I set them to a single color to match the rest of my build. If you want better airflow and a cleaner look without spending much, these are great.

Quiet, Reliable, and Affordable
These fans are awesome, and the price makes them even better. They’re super quiet, even under load, and push plenty of air to keep my system cool. Build quality feels solid, and installation was easy. For the cost, you’re getting performance that rivals more expensive fans. You really can’t go wrong with Thermalright. Definitely recommend if you want reliable, quiet cooling without breaking the bank.

Acceptably acceptable budget offering
If you're searching for a solid set of fans with a clean look and decent build quality, these are a very good pick. The LED diodes are bright enough to deliver a solid appearance, and the hotspots aren't too visible either. Being a standard fan, these little guys are following the same straight forwards installation process as most other fans, the 3 and 4 pin PWM and ARGB headers are standard and have a lot of slack, meaning you can slot them into most cases without issue. The fans are fairly quiet, and I found them very pleasant to have in my build.

perfect fans and a great deal
love these fans and they are easily controllable with a bunch of rgb softwares. they are pretty quiet too and super affordable. i would recommend to anyone looking for nice rgb fans. the rgb is soft and comes from the middle of the fan. the back and front of the fans look fine. they are durable and perform at pretty good speeds. i love that they can be daisy chained and i can hide the cables nicely. i put them on the bottom of my pc.

Great Budget Option
I have used these fans on multiple builds and they perform well. They are actually a bit quieter than Lian Li fans and move a bit more air. You do not need to spend $70 on a pack of case fans. Because these fans daisy-chain, you don't need a hub, either for power, or ARGB. I have put as many as 5 of these fans on a single header with no issues with either power or RGB.

Good budget fans that get the job done
Installed the TL-C12C-S fans as intakes and outtakes in my build and they’ve been working great so far. Airflow is solid, noise is low even under load, and the ARGB looks clean. For the price, the performance and quality are better than expected. Good budget fans that get the job done.

These are my go-to RGB fans. Good looking ARGB fans that are priced Fairly. Basic but never been disappointed since I started using them.
