[SOLVED] What RGB Fans To Get?

[chrisc1690c]

hey everyone I recently bought a new pc case the cit raider but the rgb fans that came with it are really noisy and I was wanting to maybe look into getting some new one but I don't know what ones to get.
id like to get 4 of them but 3 would be okay and maybe a led strip that can go with them and have them both be insync with each other I don't want to spend to much maybe 50 pound if that's possible

Here's something i found, 3x 120mm fans + 2x LED strips under 50 quid,
amazon.uk: https://www.amazon.co.uk/EZDIY-FAB-Addressable-Motherboard-Adjustable-Controller/dp/B07KJZPZH3

Though, do note that with that little money, you won't get solid build quality and good performance. All RGB comes with premium price and if you want good product and not cheap product, like the one above, then look towards NZXT.

* 3x 120mm RGB fans
* HUE 2 controller

Antec fans are better than EZDIY-FAB fans. Though, compared to the NZXT fans, that depends on what you want.
