Customer Ratings & Reviews

Need a pcie cable from your power supply to the fan controller if you want to control these with the nzxt cam software. That is some diabolical engineering on their end. Whats also a menacing act on their end is releasing these fans without the new controller. These should have shipped with the controller and it shouldn’t be $50. Anyways, Why not just make it connect with two sata power cables instead of a pcie cable? Like every other controller I’ve seen. the light bar on the side is not controllable. It runs off of the fan light. It is not separate. However, these are the cleanest looking fans I’ve seen and it pairs well with the new kraken. I only need one software open on startup now. I used to have Lian li Infinity fans. On paper, these perform slightly better and don’t look too “gamery” Additionally, the cables that connect to the fans are not removable so if a cable stops working then the entire fan system will not work for that set of fans. A cable is less expensive than 3 fans. I don’t know why they designed it like this. There is a 5 year nzxt warranty for these fans though so I’m not too worried. The last issue I have with them is the led hotspots. Meaning, you can visibly see the leds around the fans when configured as exhaust. Also, it is not a natural white. It is more of a warm white. See the color difference in the photos I added of my old fans. These are the best nzxt fans you can get but there’s better fans available without these flaws ex., Lian li and Corsair have “all in one” fans that are way better. But if you want to stay in the nzxt ecosystem then these are decent. By no means are they bad, but again, there’s better fans out there. These are about a 3.5/5 because of the obvious flaws.
