Looking for quite high pressure fans for H105 cooling- Black-Red color combo

[Benny89]

Hello,

I have currently Corsair SP120 mm Quiet Edition RED fans. They looks nice with their LED however I dislike their all around look. I was thinking about getting some better pressure fans but keeping Red color LED and general black-red combo.

So far I though about:

- Alpenfohn 120mm Wing Boost 2
- Enermax T.B Vegas 120mm Single Red
- Phobya NB eLoop 1600rpm
- LEPA BOL.Quiet PWM, 120mm

Since I can't read reviews of them I hope you can help me guys with choosing best sound/look/performance fans for my H105 Radiator.

Also if you have other types of good black-red LED 120mm (and 140mm too!) fans- let me know and post them please.

Thank you very much for reading!

Hello Benny, welcome on CT
according to our data the most performance fans on your list should be the LEPA, unfortunately we don't have direct data the Vegas but we've tested the sister Apollish with 1700rpm and it scored pretty nice data on pressure. Here is the charts with aswell the SP120 quiet:


TB apollish in this case is quite performant but the retail ones are limited to approx 40CFM and the same is for the Vegas(this will drop pressure performance)...so if you are searching for a good compromise between performance and noise i will stick with Bol.Quiet or eLoop from phobya and, in my opinion, you can choose eLoop if you want a little more silence(better acoustic spectrum) or Lepa if you prefer a little more performance rather than silence.
Wingboos 2 and sp120 are almost outperformed at any flowrate.

As for the reviews them should be public, if you are refering to the italian there is an onfly translator on the top left corner of the article that can help you out. Anyway, just write on the forum and we will help you.

Hey! Thanks for you answer! Much appreciated!

One more fan I got that looks really sick: Thermaltake Riing 12, 120mm. I heard it is quite good radiator fan (nice pressure) and it just has great looks. Any opinion on that?

sry from the delayed reply but was busy at the EXPO yesterday, anyway TT ring12 are using a bearing technically lower than the fans that we wrote above, indeed 25dB(A) at 40CFM is a pretty bad value.
I don't have direct data on them since TT litterly deleted all the distributors here in italy and is quite hardly for us get them but basing my conclusions on the data online doesn't seems that they have a great value.
