Thermalright TL-M12Q X3 120mm PC Case Fans, PWM ARGB Fans, 2000RPM High Airflow

Why I ordered this item: I have a new PC build that required a lot of cooling. I decided to go with RBG fans because I thought they would look cool, and I picked this model because of the performance and reviews. Likes: * These move a lot of air. I put six of them in my PC and they really work well. * The RGB function looks awesome and is very bright! Make sure your motherboard has ARGB headers. * Mounting was easy and installation was very straight forward. * The materials used on these feel very high quality. * Noise levels are low which is what I wanted. It never gets above a very quiet whirring sound. No likes: * The way these work is neat, but it could also be considered a bad thing for some people. There is one cable that goes to a fan header on your motherboard, and then these fans slot together using contact pins and pads. There is only one cable that goes to the motherboard, which means that these fans have to be installed in a row of three and cannot be moved apart from each other. This worked for me, but it might be an issue for other users that expect three individually controllable fans. Would I pay full price for this product: Yes these are a bargain. Final thoughts: Super happy with the function on these. The cost is low and they are functional and quiet.

I haven't used anything from Thermalright in years. I recently felt board with my pc and wanted to downsize things. I bought these fans because I liked the RGB and are reasonably inexpensive. After installing the fans I have to admit, Thermalright has come along way since the last time I used them because these fans are very pretty with their RGB and are surprisingly very quiet for budget fans! Let's just say that the pump on my TR 360 AIO is quiet and its louder than the fans itself while spinning at 1000rpm. After using Arctic p12 max fans for a longest, the amount of quietness from these fans have been a breath of fresh air. I love how the fans snap together and only use one rgb cable and fan cable. They aren't the best I've ever had at moving air but the performance is pretty impressive. The RGB is plenty bright and its gives you plenty of cable length as long at you don't have massive full tower case. Overall I give these fans 5 stars because they look great, move plenty of air and are budget friendly.

Thermalright, known for its exceptional cooling technology, has once again delivered some of my favorite fans at an excellent price. These fans not only look great but also maintain a low noise level. Their robust locking mechanism ensures that they stay securely connected. Currently, I have two sets of three fans daisy-chained together to synchronize their RGB lighting and fan speed. This setup eliminated the need for a separate controller. These fans are a great choice, and they even come in white if you prefer that color.

These fans are great, especially for the price. The TL-M12Q X3 set offers good airflow and good static pressure while staying surprisingly quiet, even at higher RPMs. Build quality feels solid, and the daisy-chain design makes cable management simple and clean. I paired these with my Thermalright Frozen Infinity 360 cooler, and they work perfectly together the matching design and ARGB lighting make it look seamless. For "budget fans", they perform way above expectations. Great cooling, low noise, and excellent compatibility with Thermalright’s coolers — an easy recommendation, will be buying more.

These fans are fantastic! They’re pretty fast, suck in a lot of air, so much so that my gpu hardly has to use its own fans. Playing Fortnite, my cpu and gpu temps average 50-60c in an mATX case, which is pretty nice. And the light show and mirrors make it look sleek and fantastic. Only reason why I didn’t give it five stars is that the instructions for how to install the cables all correctly were a bit confusing, especially for a beginner like me. But other than that, it was pretty simple to install and great value for the price compared to name brand ones. Would highly recommend this, especially for budget or mid tier builds
