Anyone have any experience with their fans?

Cougar CF-V12H Vortex Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing 120mm
Cougar CF-V12HP Vortex PWM Hydro-Dynamic-Bearing 120mm

I'm thinking of getting either of these to match the color of the build and also coz it seems alright - I just can't be bothered to repaint a noctua, as I don't have the space to paint or any work with proper tool atm (living in a shared townhouse right now, so...)

But yea, I guess what I'm really saying is - is these fans any good?
And I don't really know the difference between the two xD

Thanks in advance! :D

Or should I get a bitfenix specter 120mm fans?

Because I found ones with orange LEDs :D

and yea I have to stick with 120s if anyone is wondering :)

Everything made by Cougar that I have used thus far has been exceptional.

Shame that they're a little known company because I tell you what they could teach other companies a thing or two about how to make a power supply.

Their cases are a bit garish mind you but the GS800 PSU I had was by far and away the most solid, well made, stunning looking PSU I've ever owned.
 
Awesome!

then I think i'll pick up the cougar's 120s for the back, top and the drive cages.

what of the bitfenix's fan? is it any good?

Because if it's good, I could pluck 2 of those down in front for a bit of lighting effects :D

*edit

Anyone knows what PDWM is? or linky dinky to a proper definition of such?
I've been looking around and can't seem to find the answer :(

Thank you! :D

there is PWM=Pulse Width Modulation.. has to do with fan speed control
PDWM=Professional Dual Wireless Microphone.. by Pyle Audio

i had both versions of the HD bearing and didn't care for them. tended to irregular
fan control, unpredictable temperatures, and eventual wobble and death. ended up
swapping some dual ball bearings to finish then off, before replacing them. that was
1.5-2yr ago.. case fan, fine, radiator/heat sink fan.. another solution would be better.

Ah, I see...

I'm so sorry, my knowledge on fans are horrid at best xD

Thank you so much airdeano :D

On the side note; so the cougar would definitely be a good thing then :D
