Verdict

be quiet! Pure Wings 3 140mm PWM

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A perfectly adequate budget 140mm fan, but the rifle bearing means it's not the one to buy for a decade of runtime.

Cooler Master MasterFan MF120 Prism

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A reasonable mid-tier RGB fan, worth it mainly for the mirror-finish look rather than outright performance.
