Verdict

DeepCool FK120

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A solid, quiet non-RGB fan for white or black builds that don't need lighting.

Phanteks D30-120 Metal Chrome

8 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely high-pressure fan wrapped in a metal-frame showpiece look, loud at full tilt but effective on thick radiators.
