Verdict

Corsair ML120 PRO RGB

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A proven radiator fan for RGB loops that need real static pressure, if you're willing to tune the PWM curve down from its noisy top end.

SilverStone FN121

6 / 10 Expert Rating

An unremarkable but reliably quiet budget fan for general case airflow.
