I just found I have one of these brand new, so I am considering purchasing another 2 and replacing my front 3 120mm case fans.

Has anybody tried these in a BeQuiet pure base 500dx? Hoping somebody can tell me if there is any compatibility issues with the case.

Cheers.

Ive not tried them fans. But the fans that come with that case are decent. Maybe try them out first.

They are in use, 1 exhaust and 2 intake on top... Their issue is they ain't PWM but yeah good fans.

Trouble is they are 140mm so can only get 2 of them front when I want 3.

I run 9 of these on a big radiator, they're awesome fans that do serious RPM with 2 different modes. I usually run them around 1200rpm which even at that range shift serious air while being super quiet. Can only imagine them being even quieter without a restrictive radiator in the way.

The only thing to note is, they are 30mm thick fans compared to the standard 25mm. I dont think you'll run into issues installing them into your 500dx though.

Cheers, I think my only obstacle may be the front filter behind the mesh panel but I could remove that anyhow.

can also vouch for how great these fans are.

Triple pack seems to be at a very good price (£55) atm - https://www.overclockers.co.uk/phan...de-premium-triple-fan-pack-120-fg-02q-pt.html

These are the best performing fans you cen get. I really want to try some, but still happy with the Noctuas.

They’re probably the best 120mm fan out there, I have 9 on a MORA and they are extremely quiet.

Same, They do the Mora proud and they're dead silent.

I've had the same 9 running for well over 2 years now i think.

These review well. I do hope they go on sale again soon.

T30s seem to be in short supply at the moment. Quick google shows £69.99 is cheapest price at the moment. Hopefully we will see new shipments giving us lower prices.
