WEBVTT

00:00:00.399 --> 00:00:07.759
so today I'm going to be doing a quick unboxing of a product I got in the mail

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.080
these are a couple of NZXT fans and one

00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:14.839
of them is a 120 mm and one of them is a 140 mm so the first thing I'm going to

00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:22.720
do is the unboxing part fans are really easy to unbox you just open the

00:00:18.560 --> 00:00:24.680
box yeah there we go yes excellent okay

00:00:22.720 --> 00:00:30.160
so why don't we have a look at what's included as far as accessories go first

00:00:27.080 --> 00:00:32.040
you have oh H they're one screw short on

00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:36.360
this one you might say they're one screw short of a mounting system uh probably

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:42.320
just an innocent mistake but it should be four screws included for mounting and

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:46.760
then also one Molex to three pin fan

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:48.520
power adapter so let's just kind of okay

00:00:46.760 --> 00:00:52.000
there you go so you plug in your Molex there and if you have a bunch of fans

00:00:49.960 --> 00:00:57.520
then you can take more than one of these and you can daisy chain them together so

00:00:54.239 --> 00:00:58.960
you just kind of plug this into here in

00:00:57.520 --> 00:01:04.439
theory yeah there you go and then you can power two fans you can plug in more

00:01:00.840 --> 00:01:06.720
fans okay so in terms of specs 120 mm

00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:11.640
fans because they're smaller by a substantial margin than 140 mm fans need

00:01:09.560 --> 00:01:17.640
to spin faster to move the same amount of air or you can move more air at the

00:01:14.400 --> 00:01:20.479
same noise level because the 140 mm fan

00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:23.640
can spin slower or spin the same speed and move more air either way okay

00:01:21.759 --> 00:01:27.320
they're both nine blade rifle bearing fans so they're long lasting they have

00:01:25.720 --> 00:01:33.399
sleev cables and this is something that NZXT has figured out that's so few other

00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:37.920
companies do is that using a higher quality sleeving helps you can't see the

00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:41.119
color of the cables at all and they use a nice long piece of heat shrink

00:01:39.399 --> 00:01:46.240
everyone else seems averse to using more than like 2 cm of heat shrink because

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:49.880
apparently it costs a lot of money okay and then Here We Go the actual specs of

00:01:48.479 --> 00:01:53.680
the fans I'm just going to let you read that on your own should you so desire

00:01:51.960 --> 00:01:57.280
cameraman let me know when we're focused enough that they can pause it if they

00:01:55.200 --> 00:02:01.159
feel like it and there's another one here there you go that's good enough

00:01:59.520 --> 00:02:04.240
okay so why don't we just plug these fans in and then we can show you how

00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:08.160
loud they are uh more than anything else I guess

00:02:06.479 --> 00:02:13.800
we'll just be comparing the two fans against each other so I'm going to plug

00:02:10.119 --> 00:02:17.120
this in so that I can uh plug in both

00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:19.040
fans there we go so one here A camera

00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:23.160
get close so that you can you can hear the difference between fan on and fan

00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:25.280
off so you have to get really close to the

00:02:27.959 --> 00:02:35.840
fan that's pretty quiet there's no way you're going to be able to hear that

00:02:32.519 --> 00:02:37.440
okay and now let's try the next one I

00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:43.360
suspect we're going to have a very similar experience given that they're

00:02:39.640 --> 00:02:43.360
they're both rated for the same noise

00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:53.440
level yep so these are both fairly slow Finning spinning fans but as long as

00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:55.519
you've got uh a decent case that

00:02:53.440 --> 00:03:01.840
shouldn't be a problem so anyway there you go that's my unboxing of the NZXT

00:02:58.120 --> 00:03:01.840
performance fan series
