Review: NZXT FX Fan series for a quieter gaming experience


If you are going to use top notch graphics cards in your gaming rig, then you had best have one of the more reliable and effective cooling solutions to ensure that your gaming sessions don’t just halt in the middle, simply because of overheating issues. Apart from a good and stable liquid cooled solution, there are other ways such as not pushing the overclocking bit overboard, as well as getting a solid set of cooling fans.

NZXT, an old hand when it comes to cooling fans and computer chassis models, have just announced their latest NZXT FX Fan series which intends to deliver a much quieter gaming experience overall. This addition to the FX Fan series will offer performance fans for cooling enthusiasts which will push airflow to the max.

You can choose from both 120mm and 140mm sizes, where the FX fans are able to cough up anywhere between 35.8 and 96.0 CFM thanks to an integrated 3 phase fan speed control for optimal power and customization. Using Fluid Dynamic Bearing for long lasting performance, the FX series should be a permanent fixture in your performance rig for a long, long time to come.

Johnny Hou, Founder and Chief Designer at NZXT, has this to say aobut the new FX Fan series, “The NZXT community of gamers and enthusiasts places a high priority on powerful airflow. We’re ecstatic to deliver even more horsepower to get the job done with the FX Fan Series.”

You will be able to choose from the FX 120 and FX 140 models, where the former will be an extremely affordable $14.99 (€12.99), while the latter will cost you $16.99 (€14.99) a pop. That’s not too bad at all considering the kind of performance you get. Of course, you won’t have the quietest set of fans around, but if they get the job done, there is nothing much to complain about, no?
