Verdict

Corsair SP140 RGB Elite

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A capable mid-range 140mm RGB fan, though the pricier ML140 PRO RGB or quieter Light Wings both outclass it in their own way.

Phanteks M25-140 D-RGB

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A solid, well-matched 140mm companion to the M25-120, best suited to Phanteks-branded builds wanting mixed fan sizes.
