That also causes it to detract from the intended design. In the vertical position, perhaps because this is top heavy, the tower is actually tilted and won't stand straight. So the other parts are just cosmetics and won't help you stay cool.
It's not good to point at anything at it's location and it's not like you can rotate it to face up because then you wouldn't get air facing you.Īlso, while there looks like a lot of ventilation holes, the actual area from which you get air out of is approximately one third of the surface area of the vent / grill design. The mic would pickup the fan noise and that won't do.Īlso, the lighting looks cool in the photo but not in person. It won't do to run this during a Zoom meeting either because then it would be so loud in the background as the laptop would sit in front of it while this is nestled next to the external monitor.
This product looks nice but is loud and even at max, doesn't move enough air. It would have been if its gear wasn't up to par, but it's among the best available.A cheap $25 traditional round desk fan is quieter and moves more air. It allows expanding a motherboard PWM fan header to support eight fans.
The system cables this fan controller is equipped with are aimed at maximum control over the temperature and speed of the PC. Still, it's an ecosystem NZXT is creating, so it's not really a negative that the company expects you to use its own fans and lighting accessories with the controller. SilverStone PWM Fan Hub is designed with 1-to-8 PWM connectors and its built-in 2200F capacitor delivers stable voltage. You get three fan splitters, which is excellent, but it would have been the perfect setup if we also had the two RGB connecting cable converters, too, especially for those starting from scratch. This wouldn't be a problem if NZXT included two of these cables for the two available RGB ports, but it doesn't.
NZXT's controller is great for RGB lighting, so long as you plan on using its products. To use your standard RGB accessories with this controller, you'll need to use a separate lighting connection cable, which transforms the similar four-pin headers you'd find for fans to one better suited for addressable RGB equipment.
