Nexus Real Silent Case Fan Basic Series Review
Andy Ruffell / 14 years ago
Final Thoughts
This series of fans are clearly both very functional and perform well. Even at a slower speed the 120mm fans were able to produce similar results at a quieter volume than the Viper showing they have been built and engineered very well. Nexus do pride themselves on the quietness of their fans and these certainly confirm their confidence. They are also very good value for money and are in fact cheaper than most other competing brands.
We were unable to benchmark and test the 2 other sizes of fans although these are built to the same specifications and as such should perform as well when compared with a similar sized fan. Due to its size the 80mm fan has a much lower CFM rating but is quieter for it. They are as such scaled quite nicely and so it is clear to us that any of these fans would perform well from this series and would improve on any case ventilation that you already have. We as such highly recommend this series of fans especially if you want your computer to run very quiet indeed as these fans are nearly whisper quiet.
Pros:
- Very quiet fans
- Available in the standard sizes
- Relatively cheap but built well
Cons:
- Run quite slowly and don’t move that much air for enthusiasts
- No speed control as these will run flat out all the time.
We would like to thank Nexus for supplying this sample
