Corsair iCUE LINK QX120 RGB 120mm Magnetic Dome RGB Fans - Triple Fan Starter Kit with iCUE LINK System Hub - Black

First and foremost, iCue Link is one of the greatest things to happen to fan RGB customization EVER. Installed this in 2 minutes with no need to hassle over cable management.These fans look incredible, and I almost prefer the look as intake vs exhaust, which is not usually the case. I love how customizable these are with the RGB. Performance wise, these are reasonably quiet, but I find it disappointing that you pay more for these vs RX or LX fans and get less airflow/static pressure.I want to knock a star off for the performance/price, but they state it clearly in the specs, so you’re very obviously paying for the crazy amount of RGB lights, which I do value enough to have foregone the extra airflow I could’ve had elsewhere haha!Picture attached is a 3500x iCue Link case with included RX120 fans moved to my AIO radiator as exhaust, the AIO QX120 fans moved to the side intake, a QX120 fan at the rear as exhaust, and the reviewed product, QX140 fan, at the bottom as intake.

Insanely easy setup, come pre-attached so very little work you actually have to do, watched a YouTube video to easily assemble, amazing upgrade, support up to 2000 RPM, set it to scale with my cup temp to pull in more cool air the hotter it gets, RGB looks amazing. Great kit but that’s why it’s expensive

The media could not be loaded. Summary: Avoid the Corsair QX fans at all costs, especially for both open-loop cooling systems. My experience has been an absolute nightmare: three out of six fans failed within three months, starting with subtle ticks and escalating to a loud, obnoxious grind. Not only are these fans unreliable, but Corsair's replacement policy is deeply frustrating and unsuitable for any cooling setup.Details:- Purchased two sets of QX120 3-pack fans.- Within one month, two fans developed a noticeable "tick-tick-tick" noise.- Third month: another fan completely fails with a loud grinding sound.- Contacted Corsair, but they initially wanted me to return the faulty fans before receiving replacements, essentially leaving my system without adequate cooling while waiting. After much hassle, they agreed to a credit card hold for replacements, but only for the individual failing fans. This simply postpones the inevitable replacement of the likely-faulty remaining fans, requiring repeated loop drains (custom loop) or disassembling the system (traditional cooling).- This issue may or may not be isolated to my purchase. Corsair remains tight-lipped.- I have recently requested escalation for my issue at Corsair. I am not sure if this will go anywhere or not.Pros:- None worth highlighting, given the widespread failures and poor support.Cons:- Extremely high failure rate: 3 out of 6 fans failed within just three months.- Early warning signs: Faulty fans start with a noticeable ticking noise before complete failure.- Unusable replacement policy: Both return-before-replacement and individual-fan-replacement approaches are impractical and disruptive for any cooling setup.- Potential for widespread manufacturing issue: Two sets of 3-pack fans and online reports raise alarming concerns.Overall:Stay far away from the Corsair QX fans. They are simply not reliable for any cooling system, custom or traditional. A custom loop is worst because it could require a complete system drain to replace, depending on your loop layout. Corsair's inadequate and frustrating replacement policy makes the situation even worse. Choose a more reliable brand to avoid headaches and potential damage to your system.I attached a video of the latest noise from the rear fan under my vertical-mounted GPU. The video looks like they are spinning slowly because of the camera's frame rate. They are spinning at 500 RPM.If things change with Corsair replacing my fans and the replacements prove to resolve the issue (long term), I will update and inform you that this was just a bad run of fans.

Great looking fans that have decent performance. I purchased these to replace LL120 fans because I got sick of all the wires and the huge hub needed to keep 10 fans going. These are so simple to connect. Colors are great 34 LEDs in each fan and even look pretty good in reverse unlike the previous LL120s. Performance could be better, but Corsair does make fans that more geared toward performance, while these are geared towards being great looking all around fans. The fans do cool about as well as my LL120s did and are as quite at similar speeds. All around great fans that have a good build, cool well, look great, and are super simple to install/connect.
