I'm actually not that impressed with these fans either. The glass top panel on the PSU shroud looks nice, but its implementation is quite weird because it's only screwed down with the top of the hard drive cage and you can move it around into various positions but only two of them actually line up with the glass panel which should be fine but they don't actually indicate on the bottom of the case which screw holes actually lead to correct alignment with the glass panel so that's a bit annoying.
Then I had a bunch of issues with my ASUS X570 Crosshair Hero board, which I actually used in a video ages ago and then it was very unstable. I had a bunch of stability issues, so I actually ended up leaving it in a box for a while and now only one of the RAM slots works on it. Yeah, I really feel like ASUS owes me a motherboard with this damn thing.
Because of that, I'm not actually going to have benchmarks in this video because yeah, the motherboard's running on like one cylinder at this point. Uh, but getting back to the fans on paper, these fans are really impressive according to Leon Lee. They have a max airflow of 58.54 CFMs, which compared to a Noctua NF-A12, which has 60 CFMs, is not too bad.
What's more impressive is the fact that the max pressure rating is 2.54... whatever that unit of measurement is, compared to an NF-A12's 2.34, which is pretty cool. This isn't a dedicated performance review of them; I'm busy moving to a different apartment at the moment, so I don't really have time to do like a comparative test with like a bunch of other fans.
They do get pretty loud when they're running up to 1900 RPM but all fans are allowed at 1900 RPM and when you turn them down, they're very quiet. And when it comes to their RGB, the lighting looks really nice; it's not too garish for RGB and they have a very good white that's something that RGB really struggles with.
There's usually a lot of blue in the white light of RGB, whereas this is is... is the best I've seen today. When it comes to the RGB software, it's pretty decent. You can control four banks of four fans, so up to 16 fans off of one of the little fan controller hubs that comes with the three-pack.
I had some issues with that fan controller thing but I'll get into that a bit later. Other than that, it's a fairly standard RGB software implementation; it's got a whole bank of effects that you can select and it also has a big switch in the top which you can flick and then it moves all RGB responsibility over to your motherboard's RGB software.
Now, back to the controller I have some things to say about that fan controller because there are definitely some quality control issues with it. The first one I had had an issue with the USB port; the port was way too deep in Liam Lee actually sent me a replacement one before I asked for it because it was like a known manufacturing default that they fixed with all of them.
But even the replacement one that Leon sent still has some connection issues with all of the little plugs on it. I actually moved the system from this desk to another one and then back to this desk, and in doing so, I lost PWM control of all of my fans, so I had to go and wiggle stuff around in there for it to re-establish PWM control.
Now they are aware of the issues with it, so I don't think that this is gonna be an issue with all production runs but bear in mind that little controller has some quality control issues.
WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enfor today's video lee and lee sent over their new uni fans and their main gimmick really gets my juices flowing basically you can kind of like human centipede up to four of these fans together and then with this little clip you only have two cables one rgb cable and one fan cable powering the entire bank i genuinely think more fan manufacturers need to do this because not only does it cut down on cable mess a lot but you only need to use four screws to attach the whole bank to your case so with that i'm gonna do a quick build sequence and then i'll talk you through the build and the fans a little bit uh boom as you can see from the b-roll these fans look really good even powered off they've got this like soft touch plastic to them and they feel nice and premium they've also got this like little metal disc in the middle of the fan hub which also looks really nice and again i really like the little human centipede mechanic it makes them much easier to work with when it comes to the rest of the build i actually had a bunch of issues with it i'm not a huge fan of this deep cool matrix 70 case i seem to have a history of not liking deep cool cases very much but it looks nice once it's finished but the airflow is not great and i think the build quality isn't amazing either the glass top panel on the psu shroud does look nice but its implementation is quite weird because it's only screwed down with the top of the hard drive cage and you can move it around into various positions but only two of them actually line up with the glass panel which should be fine but they don't actually indicate on the bottom of the case which screw holes actually lead to correct alignment with the glass panel so that's a bit annoying and then the plastic bit of the shroud is very is very plasticky but that's not what this video is about and then i had a bunch of issues with my asus x570 crosshair hero board which i actually used in a video

controller has some quality control issues in my experience so with that let me know what you think of these fans i really like the human centipeding feature i think that all fan manufacturers need to do that and i think they're a pretty good option if you're into the kind of front ring rgb effect on a pc but yeah let me know what you think in the comment section below and that brings me to the end of another video thank you very much for watching and until the next video byefor today's video lee and lee sent over their new uni fans and their main gimmick really gets my juices flowing basically
