Hello, guys,

I'm going to buy red led fans for my build so I was wondering if you could give me some expert advice.
Which of these led fans are ideal for exhaust? I will be putting one on rear and one on top.
So far the CM one has the highest cfm and longest durability 160k hours, but is that true and is it actually better than the rest?

Thanks !

Corsair AF120 -> 52.19 CFM
NZXT FZ120 -> 59.1 CFM
CoolerMaster Jetflo 120 -> 95 CFM :pt1cable:

The Jetflo's may be the highest CFM but if all the other fans are of the same diameter and have the same fan blade construction, what do you think is the difference? RPM ofc but higher rpm's mean more wooshing noise when the blades cut through the air to push them behind the blades for airflow. I've bought the Jetflo's and they are by far the loudest fans in the world. Enough to act as a leafblower replacement.

The Corsair fans lack QC and will crack/break/malfunction either prematurely or mid way in their life-cycle. I've had a lot of people complain about how a fan blade broke after a rattling noise appeared from the fans housing.

Stick with the NZXY FZ fans and forget about them after installation.
