Najee's Experience

Corsair QL120 RGB fans are decent performers in terms of air flow. The fans come with 2 cables: one for controllable RGB and the other for fan speed. The fans use Corsair's ICUE software to change their colors to a large spectrum of colors. These fans contain 16 separate lighting nodes that can be addressed individually. The fans are more for looks rather than airflow, as the 16 LEDs surround the rings, front, and back of the fan, giving it a great look from all angles. The fans can also keep temps at a minimum, but they lack in overall speed of air and static pressure compared to other fans tested. It is recommended not to use these fans for water cooling or tower cooling. Another downside is that the rings on the fan reduce the fan's diameter to 110mm.
