Phanteks (PH-F120T30_BG_3P) T30-120 Fan Triple-Pack, Premium high-Performance Fan, Excellent Sound Quality, 4-pin PWM, Multiple Fan RPM Modes, Black/Grey

The noctua fan I wanted was out of stock so I looked for alternatives and the t30 was one of the top results and I have no regrets in buying it. This thing is solid and pushes a ton of air.

So long as you have space for the thicc 30mm height of these fans, theyre absolute monsters, and seem to perform better than Noctua NF-A12x25s when normalized for volume. I do not use the Advanced 3000 RPM mode, which requires toggling a physical switch on the fan (and has some pretty aggressive stats). At 2000RPM, theyre moving a ton of air, with outstanding static pressure. Im slowly replacing my other fans with these wherever theyre not visible; the Phanteks dont yet beat the Noctua chromax on looks. The fans support chaining via a female connector, which is fantastic, but watch out to ensure you dont overload a header. PWM support is robust. Looks like Noctua might have finally been dethroned!

I cant believe how good the performance is on these fans. I have 13 of these in my Lian Li 011 Dynamic XL running at roughly 600rpm and its about dead silent. They arent as cheap as some of the others out there, but perform way better than the equivalent noctua 120mm.

These things move a ton of air through a rad at low speed and are very quiet until about 1400 rpm. However, one of the fans I bought developed an annoying rubbing sound after a few weeks (think cheap oil bearing) that would not go away. I still think these are good but its disappointing for one to develop a fault so soon at this p[rice point. Ill update if any more develop the same issue.

If anyone knows something about how crucial air flow is, ask the homies with the tiny computers.

Absolutely new #1 fan. At 2000rpm it moves more air at higher pressure than my noc 12x25, both being whisper quiet.

Premium fans that offer the best performance when needed and the best noise profile when required. Been through my fair share of cheaper options and Ive learnt that when it comes down to it, premium fans are with their price. Better to get this and have the performance than to get a set of mid fans with RGB

This is a great 120 fan better than noctua but I personally use

Tried it today, at 1600rpm moves more air than all the other fans I own... But because I work on a dead silent place its not good for me... Past 1600rpm, I can hear the motor, and its a penetrating sound, the mini itx case is 24 away from me it disturbs me after a while... I will use it on my gaming Atx Tower Rig, but for my office no.... Just for information, I have tried fans like XPG PRO GT2150, Noctua a12x25, Be Quiet Silent Wings 4 and Arctic P12 Max, and between 1600 and 1850rpm, all I can hear is the air moving... But with these ones I can hear the motor... Great fan, As a technician, I highly recommend it, static preassure and airflow are above expectations... Great fans over all

I replaced the stock rear exhaust fan in my Deepcool Mattrex 70 case... temps of CPU and GPU dropped 10 degrees Celsius, and its still quiet. Nuff said.
