XigmatekCase Cooling Fan XLF-F1253

easy install, attached to my fan controller so I can change the brightness. Nice to be different from blue and red.Update: Still running strong and is the most silent and best looking fan in my case, will probably buy another at some point.

I got the wrong size fan for my case. User error I suppose, but hopefully I can give it to somebody who will use it.

too much white in these fans...needed all orange ( Still a quality one though

These fans are quite the eye candy! The white LEDs make the translucent orange blades light up in a different (and more pleasing) way than an orange LED would. I happen to love the colour orange, so these were perfect for me. I think they would sell more with blue or green fans though.The white LEDs are focused on the fan blades, so they aren't eye-piercingly bright in a dark room. They do help illuminate the inside of your case, and I rather like that effect.My fans have that droning low pitched fan noise that I'm sure all PC gamers are used to, but there's a higher pitched overtone that i don't particularly care for. Other reviews have mentioned this, but some say theirs don't have it. I was banking on mine not having it either. It's not too loud, the higher pitched sound just cuts through better, and is a little annoying. That being said, I don't notice it when I get into games or have my music turned up. Many PC gamers use headsets, so the sound won't be a problem.My case stays cool, looks cooler, and the noise goes away as I drift into gameland. What more could I ask for? A little, but not at this price!

Well, the title pretty much says it all. I'm not looking for massive amounts of airflow, because I have a pair of these on a 240mm Swiftech radiator, but for the money, they push a LOT of air while remaining reasonably quiet.And they look stunning under UV light. Couldn't be happier.

I bought two of these fans to use as front intakes in a build I was making for a friend. Personally, I find them to be a little louder than I'd like, but I doubt it'd bother too many people. Just don't get these if you want something quiet. As far as the looks go, well I bought these because I was going with an orange and black theme inside the case. You'd be surprised how hard it is to find fans with an orange LED and this was the only option I found that didn't come off as being cheap junk. The only problem, and I knew this when I bought it, was that it uses white LED's with orange blades.The color it puts off is kinda hard to pinpoint. In some ways, it looks just fine and gives off a subtle orange glow, but due to the way the fan is constructed there are some shades of pink in it as well. These were for a gaming rig, so I was hoping for something a little more "intense" than this, but it's not a big deal. I ordered an inexpensive orange LED strip to add in hopes of getting rid of the slightly pinkish color and to make the color more vibrant.All in all, not bad fans. I'm happy.

I ordered this fan for airflow over my Swiftech radiator and I had three performance requirements: modest static pressure, modest air flow, and low noise. Although my test was not scientifically rigorous, the fan does appear to have a fair amount of static pressure and air flow. However, the noise level is not as quite as low as I expected. The noise level is not as loud as a Delta fan, but you can tell when the fan is running. With a fan controller you can reduce the fan's voltage, speed, and then air noise. The noise level may simply be a factor of the fan size. The build quality is very good, among the best that I have seen for a 120 mm fan and I have seen my share of them. In summary, I'll keep the fan since I am pleased with it, I just wish that it were slightly more quiet with the same air flow.

My favorite color is orange, & I was originally looking for some pink fans to make my computer look different. These almost seem to combine the 2 colors somehow. They're really different & look amazing!My fiance thinks they are loud - he's picky about that sort of thing, but I am not so much. I would notice if they were abnormally loud, but I don't think they are. There's definitely no annoying or distracting sound in my opinion.I couldn't be happier with my fan choice.
