Great and very effective for the price
I'm fairly new to PC building, and have had my PC running without any (additional) case fans for the year or so I've had it. I upgraded my GPU so I decided I'd get some case fans with an amazon voucher I had lying around.For the value, these are really great!My new GPU was averaging around 75-80 degrees C after gaming before I installed the fans. I was able to fit 2 in my case, so I have a spare if there are any issues.After installing the 2 fans, those GPU temps dropped down considerably. Where previously running Starfield or Hogwarts Legacy for a couple hours would leve my GPU at 70+ degress, after running either of those games for a couple hours I'm seeing my GPU as low as 44 degrees C, which is a fantastic reduction in temperature! I've them in for a few weeks now as I wanted to make sure the temperatures were consistent, and they have been!As I said, I'm fairly new to PC building, so probably should have had case fans the whole time, so I can't compare these to other more pricy versions on the market. But for what I spent, they were easy to install, the LEDs look great and were eeasily customisable, and they're nice and quiet too.Would highly recommend!

Quiet, well-made despite the low price
I bought these Thermalright TL-C12C fans to replace my existing ones, which had become really loud even after a thorough cleaning. I’m very happy with the upgrade! Despite the low price, these fans are very well built and feel solid right out of the box. Installation was straightforward, and once up and running, I was immediately impressed by how quiet they are- a huge improvement over my old setup. The airflow is great, and the noise levels are barely noticeable even under load. Overall, excellent value for money and a great choice if you’re looking for reliable, silent cooling.

Amazing fans just a few quirks to work on
Very good fans for the price and beat Arctic in cooling and airflow capability and sound (even though this is Arctic's entire purpose) while Arctic beats them in rpm on their p12s by them having 1800 rpm compared to this fans speed of 1550rpm max.Still these fans are very quiet and even work using only a 3pin voltage only control on the motherboard header, which brings me to the point that the fan cables are too short to reach my motherboard when daisy chained together, so I had to use my own 3 pin extension cable to help it reach.The RGB functions still work nethertheless and have a nice effect which isn't too bright and isn't a dim effect, and is just right for me.One weird issue was that the fans initially upon opening the box, came out smelling very much like a factory, which was very unpleasant although it does slowly go away eventually by itself. I still think that they should not smell like that on opening as they ruin the presentation of the product and make it seem like some cheap product.This product is very easy to install and comes with all 12 screws you need to use for the installation. They require a Philips PH1 or PH2 to screw in properly and it makes the fans very rigid and ensures they won't just fall off or collapse.Overall, very good priced, acceptable amount of noise and nice aesthetics for only 11 pounds.

Quiet and looks great
I orignally bought 3 to replace two of the front fans where the LED had failed and the middle fan sounded like a drill. But after installing, I was very impressed and bought one to replace the rear fan. I should have got a 140mm for the rear but I think the 120mm looks fine. All fans configured in the ASUS BIOS and are working great. I've been impressed how good there are for the price. How long they'll last is another question, time will tell bur I got all four cheaper than one Corsair fan so I'm happy with my choice.

Superb value and quality
I've been building PCs for probably 30 years and over the last few years people seem to love RGB. Trying to keep costs down, I've always been surprised by how much decent ARGB fans can set you back. I needed 6 white ones so bought 2 of these 3 packs. They are perfect and so cheap. They are quiet, have good airflow and superb ARGB. They also use standard connectors and have pass-through on each fan for both the fan itself and the RGB, so no extra splitters or adapters needed. They also come with screws.10/10 for value and quality.

Good fans.
These are great little fans on a budget. The speed works well and seems to cool my pc down fine. I would say they do feel a tad flimsy but nothing terrible. They were really easy to install as they have daisy chains so I can connect them all together. Noise level is not great they can get really loud but I’m fine with it. The colours work well as well ! So definitely recommend for budget friendly fans.

Inexpensive.....but do the job
Bought a three-pack to replace the non-PWM fans in my case after upgrading my system. They work well and they are quiet. I don't game, and so far the fans have performed well, keeping my system cool. Have them configured as 1 intake and 2 exhaust fans at the moment, with room to add another intake and exhaust if needed (not that I'm expecting to).The fans can be "daisy chained" together, which is handy if you only have 1 system fan header.So far, no complaints and for the price, I think they're good value.
