RBG Fan Madness

Hello all you lovely people. I need some advice and input. I am planning my next build and got stuck with the RGB bug that is going around these days. I want good RBG fans, and I am thinking of using a Gigabyte board. Any good recommendations on fans that work with Gigabyte RBG, should I worry about it at all? I would like to use mobo software since I can be lazy and control it from my phone or desktop....ALSO they make good boards.

Depends on how much money you wanna spend. You can get 3 packs of RGB fans for around $100 and 3 packs around $35-40.

ML120 RGBs are about as good of an RGB fan you can get IMHO. I have none of them in my case as I refuse to spend that much on fans, but I've used them for other people's builds with very good success. 

 

Enermax has some new ones that come in 3 or 6 packs in 120mm that were surprisingly good in a recent budgetish build I did, though I can say I wasn't able to find the right cable to sync their controller to a Gigabyte B450m board.

Sadly the build I am planning is several months away, and I already have enough unused parts laying around atm. Sorry, I must decline the offer.

The LL fans are rubbish anyway, so no loss. The ML fans are 100% better.

There isn't much difference really in static pressure, the ll are quieter, look better, they less then 10% difference in performance of static pressure and airflow. Overall great fans.
