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.
Thermaltake Riing Quad 12 RGB
7 / 10 Expert Rating
A dependable RGB case fan best bought as part of a full TT RGB Plus ecosystem rather than standalone.
