PHANTEKS fans, how good are they in reality?
Posted: Wed Aug 03, 2016 1:02 am
Hey,
I'm looking for new fans for my PC. Case is a Coolermaster Silencio 650. Used to be pretty silent when it was new but the fans are too noisy for my likings by now, along with my Macho HR-02 Rev. A fan, so I want to replace all of them. That means I need a 140mm CPU fan with 120mm mounting holes, two 140mm casefans and one or two 120mm PWM case fans.
I'm not gonna spend over 15€ for each so no bequiets, or Noctuas. I'm looking into Phanteks right now, namely the
1x PHANTEKS PH-F140HP for the CPU
1 or 2 x PH-F120XP or PH-F120MP (which one is better) for the case; alternatively PH-F120SP
2 x PH-F140SP for the case
Does anyone have first hand experience with Phanteks fans, especially the ones I listed. I read a comparison on here and they beat even Noctuas, but how good are the really in terms of cooling power and noise? In particular how does the PHANTEKS PH-F140HP fare against a standard Macho fan (I think for Rev. A it was a TY 141).
Cheers
