Looks great and works very well. Only complaint is in icue they are labeled as a different fan. So it was hard to configure the fans to get the colors working. Once you figure out the fans there are 0 problems. Been a year and work like new. Easy to hook up

If you're stepping into the world of custom gaming/enthusiast computers and you want to add a bit of bling and not break the bank (or if you have the budget for a lot better but can't find anything in stock but need something to tie you over) then these deserve a serious look.
The Corsair iCue SP120 RGB Pro are a not the newest, best performing fans out there, but they are pretty good at what they do and they offer excellent build quality and customization. The fans come with 8 addressable LEDs in the hub of the fan and they are slightly shrouded by plastic so the light is diffused nicely but it does mean that it cuts down on a bit of the luminosity of these fans.
You can control customizations of the LEDs and fan performance through iCue software which is a fairly decent program. This program will integrate with many motherboards and peripherals for controls however, for better control I highly recommend getting the Corsair Commander Pro module to accompany any Corsair or other fan especially if you have more than 3 fans to plug into your motherboard.
The 3-pack comes with 3 fans (obviously) and a RBG controller, You will need to plug the RGB controller into a SATA power cable and connect the other end either to a USB control header on your motherboard or into a Corsair Commander Pro unit.
Performance-wise these are not the best, nor are they the worst at moving a lot of air at a decent amount of force. These are better suited as case fans vs fans you would use on an water cooling radiator, but they would do a decent job on a radiator if you really wanted to use these. These will run fairly silently until you hit around 1200 RPM then they are quite loud. By default there's a "quiet" fan profile on these but I found that in the iCue software, quiet really isn't that quiet since it will set your fans to around 1285 RPM. You will need to use iCue to create a new custom profile and assign it one of the less aggressive curve templates and it should run fairly quietly until you need cooling and it needs to ramp up.
I decided that these fans weren't the ones I really wanted in my case, so I went with the Corsair ML120 RGB Pro fans which are around $40 more than these and perform slightly differently. Like lower noise at similar RPM and differences in static pressure and CFM. These are NOT bad fans, but they are really middle of the pack and if you need to save some money, buy these instead of some of the competitors out there because these are very good value for the performance they can offer.
Below are two pictures of my build to show you what quality of the colors and brightness of the light that these fans produce. The colorful fan setup is the default configuration after I put things togther. I just powered on my machine to see that everything was working as I just finished building it. The second picture is a bit dark and the light emitted from the fans were brighter than this photo but not so much as it would hurt your eyes to stare at the fans. I wanted to show off how diffused the light on these fans are. It gives the fans a really good uniformity when choosing solid colors. But depending on the color they are not the brightest case fans.
I had a pretty high end build so I chose to get higher end fans that had the features I really wanted. But after having these in my case for a few days I wouldn't be disappointed in having them especially with supply of PC parts being as low as they are it's difficult to find some of the more popular and higher end fans.

I’m v happy with the outcome of these! They are so vibrant and bright! Super quiet and powerful. No complaints whatsoever, except maybe the fact that it’s reaaaally hard to keep cable management looking clean with everything that goes on back there… but that’s also to be expected with high quality, addressable fans? I have Corsair’s bright white fans on the front and back as well as these addressable rgb fans on the top, and together they have the most pristine, fresh look. I absolutely love how it all came out, and I can finally say that I’m genuinely proud of the look of my build. iM A rEAl gAMeR GiRl nOW!

I have 6 of these fans and the RGB is awesome they are pretty quiet and they work great as case fans as well as AIO liquid coolers because they are SP(Static Pressure) fans which work better when pressed up against a radiator. All arround I love all of the custom lighting effect and they are super easy to install, Corsair for the win!!!

Awesome fans. Even better when you're invested into the corsair ecosystem. Being able to synchronize several different products (fans, keyboard, rgb strips etc) and change lighting profiles with the touch of a button on your keyboard is awesome for anyone who likes rgb. Corsairs lighting customization, and iCue in general are next level. You can also download pre made profiles from places like Alex.Krastev.org and the possibilities are pretty much endless. 10/10

These fans are as advertised. Beautiful to look and it is fun to try different color combinations and animations. They work pretty well as fans too doing a good job of keeping the case and components cool. I wish Corsair also made RGB fans for CPU coolers. For those of us with MBs without multiple fan headers, it would be nice to have a component that combines the Commander Pro and Lighting Node Core into one component.
I have also purchased the Corsair 220T case with glass side and front panels which comes with 3 pre-installed SP120 Pro fans and a Node Core so this set was to add more fans to the case. Since I didn't need the Node Core that came with the fan set, I was able to sell it separately and cut the cost of this fan set to me in half.

I purchased this to replace my boring old fans with colorful ones. Come to find out that Corsair's products aren't as easy to use as you think. If you have different fan models (even SP120 and SP 120 Pro), they will not work on the same controller. Each set of fan you have in your system must be on it's own controller. This creates a headache and a mess of wires in the back of the system (which isn't too bad if your other side panel isn't glass like mine).
This explains why every time you buy a triple pack of fans from Corsair, you get a controller included, even if you don't need it, because someone else might.
I installed these fans on my computer and they looked good but I ended up getting a 4th fan and installing them in my wife's computer, bringing it to life with colors.

These are sitting in my 220T Case. They fit in (2 on top 1 on back) just fine. I had a existing RGB box so i used that instead, but the one that game with it looks nicer then the one that came with my case.
Keep in mind:
1. 4 pin adapter goes into RGB Hub
2. 3 Pin is the power... but most boards now have 4 pin system fans that will also accept a 3 pin adapter
Installed... opened up ICUE software and expanded my RGB Controller from 3 to 6 and boom Rainbow world!!!

Essential add on if your trying to RGB your rig without 10 applications to customize your lights. I paired this with vengeance pro ram and a AIO cooler from corsair and can fully customize the whole case from one app. 10/10 recommend. Just bolted these up and connected to corsair controller(which i already had) and it was up and running in < 10min.

Works as advertised although the module only has rgb where the fan wires must be plugged into the motherboard unless you have spare slots open on another module with fan slots. Overall runs goot and shiny.
