Reddit mentions of Corsair Air Series AF120 LED Quiet Edition High Airflow Fan Twin Pack - Red

Are you looking for static pressure or airflow optimized fans? These fans are pretty good for static pressure or airflow optimized

tbh, u can find most fans around this price range. This particular one just offers a bit more with anti vibration and all that to reduce sounds and stuff.

As reference, i got two 120mm corsair with LED for $18 here

Also, brands dont impact asssss much in fans as fans are pretty simple, so less things to mess up in manufacturing

For those wondering the model:

5x AF120 (red LED)

I thought it was $22 for two. Let me see if I can get you a link

Apologies. They are 120s

Thanks! So a couple things, since that photo, I've rotated the cpu cooler to send air out the back and its been working great. It's cooling an i7-7700k and the highest temp I got to during a stress test last night was 66c at stock voltage and speed. I'm getting a kraken x52 to replace that though, so things should be even better. I'll probably mount that radiator to the top if it fits.

This is the ram I have, which I actually might be selling soon. They work great. Haven't had any issues and I haven't even enabled the xmp profile yet.

Two of the fans on the right came with the case. The two corsair fans you see in the photo are the AF120 models I believe (they glow red). I used to have a Fury X so I had that radiator mounted to the top and used to just have a stock cooler on my i5-6500. I think the ventilation is pretty good, but I'll see what temps I get with the new cooler. Might consider taking the front cover off to increase airflow.

As for tips, I'd say make sure you know what connectors you need for your PSU and connect them all before installing it all cause that area can get tight. Depending on the cpu cooler you have, you might it might be a little tight to install the fan connectors on the top of your mobo. Make sure you know which way your fans are pushing air and plan ahead. Otherwise you'll just annoy yourself with taking them on and off of the case haha.

I should be getting my new parts today, so after I install it all, I can send you an updated photo if you'd like. Feel free to PM if you have any other questions

Hence the noise lol

Edit: guess I was mistaken, it was more like 45$:

yes, but id recommend getting a couple of intake fans: https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-AF120-Quiet-High-Airflow/dp/B00F6S0XJO/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1ERIBJ66BK9UO&keywords=120+mm+case+fans&qid=1556200305&s=gateway&sprefix=120+mm+case%2Caps%2C276&sr=8-4-spell

corsair is a reliable brand, and these are currently on sale for $20 ($50-$30)

I use these https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-AF120-Quiet-High-Airflow/dp/B00F6S0XJO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1479911180&sr=8-3&keywords=corsair+fan

probably going to have a tough time selling those fans fyi

Corsair AF120's are really good fans

they also have a non-LED version if you don't like disco desktops

Corsair ML120 Pro radiator fans - $24.99 each

Corsair AF120 everywhere else - 2 pack for $18.39

Don't use ML120 Pro fans as case fans, they are cut and designed to push air through objects, for example, a radiator. Now, you CAN use them as case fans, but here let me know you my setup. I use ML140 Pros Reds on my radiator, and AF140 Red for exhaust.

My setup .. I am purchasing another AF120 red for the bottom.

With your case.. it's a silent designed case, the intakes are restricted, which is probably why you see higher temperatures. What I would do if I was in your shoes. I would mount AF (airflow) fans in the front to intake cool air, mount my radiator up top with 2 pressure fans like the SP or ML series (ML preferred) pushing out and through the radiator to exit the case, and 1 AF fan for exhaust. If you have a spot on the bottom for a fan, 1 AF fan down there as close to the GPU as you can get it would be perfect, but set it to a profile with a moderate speed so it's not creating too much turbulence with the front intake fans. The key is you want a steady flow, not a bunch of air twirling in the case.

Plenty of reviews... https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-AF120-Quiet-High-Airflow/dp/B00F6S0XJO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1486656893&sr=8-1&keywords=af120

Wink wink

I should clarify - they should be the LEDs in the outer housing so that the light is static instead of the new design where the blades themselves are lit and spinning which causes the lines to appear.

[I'm not editing in case you already read my last comment]

AF120 in pull, as in pulling air into the case.

Thanks for the tip. If it comes down to having to buy from a store I will probably go with these fans from Amazon.

I bought a couple of these when I first built my PC and they seem to move good air. They are a little on the noisy side at 100% since I have them plugged into a fan controller. I plan to plug my next fans into the motherboard and control their speed by CPU temp so they should be significantly quieter I think.

Hmm ok I think im gonna go with the i5 + asrock killer when microcenter restocks on i5s as well as the evga 500b 500w. Do you think I should get LED light strips http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812170026 or LED fans http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F6S0XJO/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER to go with my build/windowed case to give off a more red vibe?

Whilst there is a difference between an i7 and i5, I have a i5 4690k paired with 16gb ram and an ssd, and use Photoshop and after effects and the performance on them is fantastic.

If you'll be doing 4k editing you may want an i7 but the i5 4460 is a great high performance CPU.

You may want to get http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00F6S0XJO/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1452699051&sr=8-1&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=Af120+led&dpPl=1&dpID=51VHmYAnSkL&ref=plSrch some of these case fans too.

I have the same case. I moved the fans that came with it to the front of the case for intake and used these for exhaust:

[SOLVED] I need a fan splitter that allows two of my fans to be RPM controlled by the MOBO I am currently using this one but only lets the fans run at 100%, and not be RPM controlled. Any suggestions (preferably black sleeved, but I'll take anything)


EDIT: I'm using the built-in "ASUS Fan Xpert" to control the 3pin fans.

EDIT2: Thanks Neverlife for the suggestion. It seems the BIOS was affecting the fans. After running the fan utility in UEFI all works well and dandy.

Good point! Still, this particular regulator can output 3A - which should be more than sufficient, unless we're talking about a table fan. Take this rather big fan for instance. It pulls 400mA. I'm guessing that OP has a fan with less of a pull than that. So, with this fan, you have an overhead of 2.5A.

I'm guessing that the powersupply OP has is a battery pack. If that's the case, then the bottleneck when it comes to current is the regulator.

Ok thanks. How are those compared to https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00KF7PPY4/?tag=pcpapi-20 this. And would getting 2 of the Cougar ones be better than these https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F6S0XJO/?tag=pcpapi-20&th=1

Sorry If i'm asking too many questions I don't know much about case fans

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F6S0XJO/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_CZANzbA2B4C7Z

would this work, I could use another case fan too and this comes with two for pretty cheap.

Which fans did you wanna replace? If they are 120mm -- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F6S0XJO/ref=twister_B00F93ZIEG?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

140 -- https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Premium-Magnetic-Levitation-CO-9050047-WW/dp/B01G5I6QH6/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1481683128&sr=1-3&keywords=140+mm+case+fan+led+red

I bought the case few weeks ago.

I haven't bought the fans yet because i'm grabbing new gpu releases and a new monitor.

The fans I was planning to get are Link x6

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00F6S0XJO/?tag=pcpapi-20 would this work with the two stock fans that come with the case? Can the two stock fans act as the rear exhaust and top exhaust?

I have the Corsair AF120 quiet edition for my build, and they are almost silent most of the time, except when playing demanding games. I have the non-led version, but they do come in a red version.

Would I need more than the 1 fan that comes with the Corsair 100R? I'm building my first PC either Friday or Saturday and I completely forgot about fans. If I need more what would be a somewhat cheap fan/fans I could get? I was looking at these but I have no idea about fans in general. If it's important here's my build. (also if the fans I linked either won't work or aren't good I'd prefer if the fans would either be not LED or red if possible).

Also, if I need more fans what would be the best setup for them? I've heard 1 in the front and 1 in the back is pretty good, but I know there's also spots for them on the top too, so I'm not entirely sure. Thanks!

Is there any easy way to power a case fan like this outside of a PC case. As in whats needed to plug them into a normal wall outlet.

The fans I have are three pin only (Corsair AF120) Would that mean they would be at a constant speed and not alter with more strain and higher temps?

You may want a couple of 140mm case fans for intakes I have those and they're pretty good. But keyboards and mice are pretty subjective to taste and how much you want to spend. Like do you want a mechanical keyboard, rgb lights, macro buttons, full size, 60%, tenkeyless?

oh okay, i thought i needed more rpm guess not.

just ordered a 2 pack of these then:

should suffice:)

I have a few things which I will be posting tomorrow. I have prices in mind, just want to get a rough idea of the prices and how much it would cost to ship.

• Logitech G430 Headset. Bought from Amazon. Used for 7-8 months. Have original box.
  
  
• Corsair Spec 02 Case. Bought Open Box from Microcenter for $45. Comes with 2 fans (1 No LED Black; 1 Red LED). Will include additional front dust filters and 2 Corsair Red LED fans bought new from Amazon. Have original box and packaging.
  
  
• Seagate 500 GB 5400 rpm Thin Laptop Hard Drive. This came with a laptop I bought 2 days ago and was replaced with an SSD. So it's brand new.
  
  
• SteelSeries Apex Raw gaming wired keyboard. Bought refurbished from newegg 3 months ago.
  Have the original box it came in.
  
  
• Acer G226HQL 21.5-Inch Screen LED Monitor. Bought new on Amazon. Used for 7 months. Have original box and packaging.
  
  Thank you.

Would you suggest these then? I already have some of the non LED ones but these are cheaper, are these still as good?

are these fans good?
