Holy Moly!
Overview

No compromise on Silence and Performance


The be quiet! 120 mm PWM high-speed SilentWings 3 fan offers state-of-the-art technology, virtually silent operation and even more efficient cooling. They offer: a 6-pole motor that runs like clockwork, an advanced Fluid-dynamic bearing system, a finely tuned blade design and a fan frame with funnel-shaped air inlets. The extreme air pressure produced makes it the best choice for air or liquid cooling.
  • Innovative 6-pole motor: 6-pole motor with three phases for lower power consumption, less vibration and therefore quieter operation.
  • Anti-vibration mounting brackets: Removable, anti-vibration mounting brackets on all four edges of the fan minimise the transmission of vibrations to the housing.
  • High quality motor control: The use of a high quality integrated circuit helps to reduce electrical noise.
  • Rubber fan frame: The rubber-mounted fan frame is equipped with funnel-shaped air inlets for extremely high air pressure.
  • Flow-optimised blades: The seven flow-optimised blades ensure virtually inaudible operation and optimum ventilation.
  • Anti-vibration mounting brackets: Removable, anti-vibration mounting brackets on all four edges of the fan minimise the transmission of vibrations to the housing
  • Rubber fan frame: The rubber-mounted fan frame is equipped with funnel-shaped air inlets for extremely high air pressure.

  • SilentWings technology: Unique blade design
  • PWM function: Speed of rotation controlled by the motherboard

    A little freshness...

    Perfect. Use to improve airflow in a Corsair Carbide 100R box, efficient and quiet.

    Very good

    Mounted on a corsair H100x watercooling to replace the original SP120 which was quite noisy and vibrated ...
    Noise level, even at 2200 RPM are quieter than the SP120 at 1400RPM
    Thanks to the rubbers, no vibration.
    In addition, by setting my BIOS correctly I lost 5° of max CPU temperature.
    I strongly advise to mount them on a H100x watercooling kit!

    Excellent! ;)

    Replaced 6 old f1's that ran 24 hours a day at 100%.
    The switch to full pwm is a real life changer.
    The difference in power of the fans can be felt directly compared to my old f1's which were a little over 10 years old. Then ... what a silence :O I do not hear anything more where my tower is, it is a true happiness.

    Very quiet

    Bought two of these in anticipation of the heat wave to replace the single pure wing pwm from min dark rock.
    I am very happy with my purchase, they cool very well and even at full blast you can hardly hear them.
    Thank you ldc. Shipped in less than 48 hours.

    Perfect

    In replacement of a silent wings 2, clear gain in silence and much more powerful, fast and careful delivery, nothing to add!

    Replacing the fan on my watercooler

    I bought two fans to replace those of my watercooling coolermaster which was vibrating and making too much noise at 1500rpm

    I am very happy with the result, the pc is sober and well ventilated.

    I'm very happy with the result, the pc is clean and well ventilated. I'm not sure if I'm a fan of watercooling, but I'll have to use the plastic pads and not the noise dampening ones. I'm very pleased with the result, the fan is clean and you can only hear the noise of the wind.

    Very good product!

    The product is very well packaged, as described, easy to install and compatible with several installations.
    The fan is quite quiet (at least after 1 month of use, it works very well).

    I recommend this product!

    Noisy engine...

    I am very disappointed with these fans, the PWM motor hums from 800rpm... Which no other fan from any other brand does.

    I switched to the Arctic F12 which are 20€ cheaper. Quieter and just as efficient

    I strongly advise against it.
