Does anyone have any experience with these Gelid Fans? I want some trusted opinions from OCN'ers. Also, I can't really tell if they would be UV reactive or not. *Shrug.

Get a Noctua, you silly goose.

Gelid makes decent stuff, so it should be alright. But for $23, a Noctua is probably your best bet. Gelids that aren't yellow are much cheaper.

But I don't like Noctua's. :S And, I like Gelid's color. >.< Plus they have 92mm ones.

Also, what about Coolink fans? Or Nanoxia?

Panaflo and San Ace are really good. For people on a tighter budget, Yate Loon makes some great stuff, too. None of them make yellow ones that I know of.

I use 4 of their 120mm UV Blue fans in my Antec 900, and they are excellent coolers. 3 are case fans, and one is my CPU fan, and it keeps that thing at 25C idle and max 45C. Go for Gelid, they are a new but very good company. And yes, they are UV reactive.

Noctuas are only good for case fans, but their horrible color scheme is a turn off

Gelids are quiet and good static pressure, so buy them

Noctua = empty wallet
Xigmatek = empty wallet, but you get two of those fans instead of just one
I don't know why but people at OCN tend to underrate Xigmatek... they make some awfully decent case fans.

I've heard good, but not great things about these Gelids.

There are better fans out there, but these aren't bad. The included fan controller is also a nice touch.

EDIT: Yes, that gelid fan is uv reactive
