This is the only review I have found that shows how the software works and the fact that you took time to explain some of the features earned you a new subscriber. Keep up the good work.
is it possible to change the light modes or are you stuck to just one? like for example have it on wave, and then transition to ripple, and then slow the speed, and thene speed it up? or are you just stuck to 1 static mode the entire time?
Can you daisy chain the fans in case you might have 6 and don't want to buy another fan controller for just one fan? Also I was wondering if 120s and 140s can run off the same controller?
Those are the 120 mm 9 blades SP variant, aren't they? TT has also got a 120 mm AF 11 blades variant. Do you have any info if there will be a 140 mm 9 blades version? I've seen the 140 mm 11 blades fan so far.
so what's the pressure like I have ml120 but other then hard performance they don't look flashy and don't fit into my sci-fi cyberpunk style build. will I loose real world performance if I switch from the ml120 to these ?
Is there a way to also have a couple of LED strips and somehow coordinate the colors? For example can you connect a separate led strip on the controller or something?
They do look very nice. I'm looking forward to their new liquid coolers that'll come with these guys - particularly the 360mm one. The logo on the block looks much nicer (imo), too
Mate you look like Clark Kent. Thanks for the review. *Especially because you included the noise test.* (The mic was a bit close though. Not many will have their ears so close to a PC case fan. Half an arm's length to a full arm's length is more common. But they will be even quieter then.)
Thanks for your reviews especially from Strayan bloke! Having an Australian makes it more relevant for me as you suggest RRP in AUD. Im planning to build me my first pc. Buying my parts from Umart 😁
Hi Tim can you purchase these individuality or do you have to buy 2 sets to get 5 fans, that is how many i need for my system, Thanks for the great work mate.
Tt took care of this one for me.. ha ha I'll also be keen for the individual ones because I'll be replacing my 4 x 140mm fans with Riing Plus when they are individually available.
what is the problem when i get this error messege :could not find controller.please check the fan controller is connected (Errorcode:H_0x0001) and my motherboard is msi z170a
In my opinion and the opinion of many others I've asked. The non-plus Riing fans look better than the Riing Plus fans. The clearly defined and understated RGB lighting on the perimeter of the fan is much nicer and not overblown like on the Riing Plus fans.
Better than the Aer fans: 1) Light is shed on both sides of the fan. 2) Software is more reliable and intuitive. 3) Fans and controller box sold together. Hue+ is required and sold separately, also ridiculously enough not sold in all places even if they sell the fans.
Hey guys, when ever I try to go on the software this pops up " Do Not Find Fan Controller , Please check the fan controller is connected (ERROR Code:H_0x0001)
Hope the lighting last longer than the original ring fans. The ones i have started dimming within 6 months. Not sure I will get these brand fans again.
Hey I got these a month ago and they look nothing like yours do in the video, mine are really bulby and all the leds have hotspots that make it look beady
If they were mobo RGB compatible then the price might be worth it...But when I built my system it was $180 for 6 fans! So I just went with the old Riings and couldn't be happier.
No affiliate link in the description? Holy fuck that is impressive. I normally dislike every video I come across because I don't give a fuck but you get a like from me. These fans look dank as fuck, waste of money but kind of want em now.
Thermaltake ANZ the design and lighting is more even in these models of fans. I currently own the original ones but the newer one's look and perform better.
P - The P is Silent hey mate, no difference, the naming can be a bit confusing but these are the 'plus premiums', there are the 'premiums' which have a different ring and led style. The 'plus premium' is the new standard.
They can do 16.8 million colors, but no they aren't capable of doing white. -.- also you do know that white is the result of using R(ed)G(reen)B(lue) at the same time right? nope you didn't.
it looks clunky because the leds do not smooth the transition from one color to the next. I have the older Riing fans and even though it was a single ring of one color, the transitions cycled smoothly to the point that you saw all the variations of each primary color. Not seeing that here, which is what I was hoping for. edit- just 12 led's is what makes it look clunky because they are spaced apart. similar to what low resolution is to high resolution i suppose. edit2 screwit, still best fans on the market.
The software is super buggy though. Ive got 2 controllers connected and when I switch between each controller, the interface goes nuts every now and then. When I first tried to hook up everything, my windows didn't detect the fans. The reason for that was, the USB cables weren't properly connected to the controller box because the rubber around it was too thick to push all the way through the box. I had to cut away the excess rubber around the USB port to make it work. For the price of these fans, this is unacceptable.
thanks for the video. the 2nd most annoying part of these fans is the stickers in the middle.... i noticed in both of the videos i viewed there is no uniformity. the #1 most annoying feature is the price.. the software is not bad but there is no way in hell i would even consider paying that kind of $ for fans ? and if i were to even consider it it wouldnt be for a product with stickers on it promoting the co's products thanks but no thanks TT.
I must be the only one bothered by the fact that when a LED is set on RED color. We can see the LED shape through the frosted ring very distinctly.. All the other colors are nicely spread but not the red. Damn it OCD...
...these are probably one of the cheapest. Controller's included and they don't make you buy separate controllers (LED+fan) (ahem..CORSAIR). There's a five pack on amazon for about 139.99 and it comes with a controller for all 5!
I'm sure you guys have noticed that the rgb wave looks choppy . That is because there are only 12 colors in the sequence for the thermaltake rainbow wave effect. The software for other rgb fans has the fans produce all of the gradients between those 12 colors in their sequence, so it looks WAY more smooth. As a matter of fact, all of the effects that try creating the illusion that the colors are spinning suffer from this issue. They all look choppy. Whoever developed the rgb effects for the thermaltake software is a fucking simpleton. It's such a shame because these fans look amazing, perform well, have great build quality, and only use 1 cable for pwm and rgb. DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS THERMALTAKE!
saywhut2 I see. The new fans probably will get the new controller, but the problem is I might get the fans with the old controller if I purchase them from local sellers. They might still have the old stock.. Ugh.. Thanks for the info!
Han even if you do, Thermaltake is really good at replacing it with the new one. Just reach out to customer support and show them the invoice and they will send you a new controller
don't buy. rgb software freezes your computer if you have AMD GPU and adrenaline. completely randomly. and yes, if you don't have SATA power male to molex female adapter, you can't use the controller at all. I went all in on thermaltake case and fans yesterday and already would do everything differently. the case has stupid design oversights, physically impossible to use PSU shroud SSD mounts with ATX MOBO, you can't use a 90 degree SATA cable at all. Thermaltake will never see another cent from me. commented because if I would have seen something like what I wrote above before buying these, I never would have.
dont buy these thermaltake software is aweful to use your better off buying any other fan that doesnt have that shit software please god dont waste your money like i did
This is the only review I have found that shows how the software works and the fact that you took time to explain some of the features earned you a new subscriber. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for showing the back side of the fans. That is what I was looking for for a long time, since I have to mount them the other way.
3 mins in and this is the best review of these fans good job mate
This new version of tt rgb fan is not suck anymore!great vid,thx
is it possible to change the light modes or are you stuck to just one? like for example have it on wave, and then transition to ripple, and then slow the speed, and thene speed it up? or are you just stuck to 1 static mode the entire time?

Is there a way to also have a couple of LED strips and somehow coordinate the colors? For example can you connect a separate led strip on the controller or something?
is this aura sync compatible?
They do look very nice. I'm looking forward to their new liquid coolers that'll come with these guys - particularly the 360mm one. The logo on the block looks much nicer (imo), too
Mate you look like Clark Kent.
Thanks for the review. *Especially because you included the noise test.*
(The mic was a bit close though. Not many will have their ears so close to a PC case fan. Half an arm's length to a full arm's length is more common. But they will be even quieter then.)
LOL thanks i guess...... Yeah at arms length you wouldnt hear them, i was trying to emphasize it.. ha ha
Thanks for your reviews especially from Strayan bloke! Having an Australian makes it more relevant for me as you suggest RRP in AUD.
Im planning to build me my first pc. Buying my parts from Umart 😁
+Siala Leao AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!
Are these Aura Sync compatible? So you can control them using Aura Sync software?
I wonder if the software is backwards compatible with the non-premium edition Riing RGBs.
Hi Tim can you purchase these individuality or do you have to buy 2 sets to get 5 fans, that is how many i need for my system, Thanks for the great work mate.
Hi @John Ayre, we'll be selling individual Thermaltake Riing Plus RGB fans shortly across the world. Currently they're only available in 3-packs. :)
Tt took care of this one for me.. ha ha
I'll also be keen for the individual ones because I'll be replacing my 4 x 140mm fans with Riing Plus when they are individually available.
Well now you can buy them in fives! :)
what is the problem when i get this error messege :could not find controller.please check the fan controller is connected (Errorcode:H_0x0001) and my motherboard is msi z170a
In my opinion and the opinion of many others I've asked. The non-plus Riing fans look better than the Riing Plus fans. The clearly defined and understated RGB lighting on the perimeter of the fan is much nicer and not overblown like on the Riing Plus fans.
Better than the Aer fans:
1) Light is shed on both sides of the fan.
2) Software is more reliable and intuitive.
3) Fans and controller box sold together. Hue+ is required and sold separately, also ridiculously enough not sold in all places even if they sell the fans.
So no need to ADDRESSABLE rgb motherboard, but will this work with other brands of fans
Hey guys, when ever I try to go on the software this pops up " Do Not Find Fan Controller , Please check the fan controller is connected (ERROR Code:H_0x0001)
Do the RGB controls remain if the software is stopped or does the software needs starting on each boot to set the colours?
+TomBZombie it stays set how you have it. It may save on the memory of the control box so the colours are as you choose immediately as you boot.
Love em'! I know what fans I'll be getting! Loved the vid
potato thanks! :)
peckogecko_ how'd that go
Will the LEDs be broken easily? I'm so worried of the lifetime of these LEDs especially PC parts.
Hope the lighting last longer than the original ring fans. The ones i have started dimming within 6 months. Not sure I will get these brand fans again.
Can four fans be connected to the controller?
Hey I got these a month ago and they look nothing like yours do in the video, mine are really bulby and all the leds have hotspots that make it look beady
Is it possible to control fan speeds via motherboard software or must you use thermaltake software for that as well?
i have riing plus rgb software
Tossing up between these and the corsair HD RGB. I need 3x 140mm fans and 4x 120mm fans.
what is the diff between these and the trio (I know trio seems to have more leds)
If they were mobo RGB compatible then the price might be worth it...But when I built my system it was $180 for 6 fans! So I just went with the old Riings and couldn't be happier.
I could get a 5-pack for 80€. Should I buy or pass
I built a perfect PC thanx to these fans.
It's just you can see the leds on them. I just wish they looked seamless
Curious as to why the fan control software is showing ip address
No affiliate link in the description? Holy fuck that is impressive.
I normally dislike every video I come across because I don't give a fuck but you get a like from me.
These fans look dank as fuck, waste of money but kind of want em now.
HAHAHA Thanks mate!!
Can i use with 2 controllers 10 fans with the software?
do these also come in static colours. like if you dont want to spend the extra money on rgb and know what colour scheme you want.
you could buy the old riing if you didnt want rgb
Upgrade Addiction but i like the looks of these one's better then the originals :((
We do have solid colour ring fans (Which are our first gen) however they don't have 12 individual LED's like these models do.
Thermaltake ANZ the design and lighting is more even in these models of fans. I currently own the original ones but the newer one's look and perform better.
When will we be able to purchase 140mm?
Can I use mystic lighting with it?
Great review dude! Earned a subscriber here :)
+Rogue Llamas thank you! :)
can you run these fans with your sentery 3 fan controller
Cool review Tim, Installing mine now ;D
+Bazzer excellent :) have fun
Only thing is the software wont detect the fans to change the colors :(
Did you find a fix for this? I believe it's an issue with a software incompatibility.. Waiting on a fix from thermaltake
what are the fans in your rig behind you i really like that red colour...
Kristyan Chernev red tt riing 14cm (non RGB)
thanks for replying
i really needed some red fans for my black n' red build but rgb fans are a little too expansive... considering i need 6 or 7...
what will you recommend- Corsair HD120 or these?
So which ones do you prefer? The plus or the premiums?
P - The P is Silent hey mate, no difference, the naming can be a bit confusing but these are the 'plus premiums', there are the 'premiums' which have a different ring and led style.
The 'plus premium' is the new standard.
The PLUS for sure!
do these work with Gigabyte Fusion??
Can we take the stickers off? They look horrible.
i3oosted they are removable
I'd stick black tape or paper on their logos :D
Great video! Subscribed
Beautiful! god i want XD
They are so nice!!!! You need to see them IRL to appreciate them.
Also... 1ST comment!!!! ha ha
Yay! XD
Upgrade Addiction Can they do white?
They can do 16.8 million colors, but no they aren't capable of doing white. -.- also you do know that white is the result of using R(ed)G(reen)B(lue) at the same time right? nope you didn't.
I'm stuck between corsairs or this, another factor is these freeking prices are they crazy!?!?!
That was really helpful, thanks.
it looks clunky because the leds do not smooth the transition from one color to the next. I have the older Riing fans and even though it was a single ring of one color, the transitions cycled smoothly to the point that you saw all the variations of each primary color. Not seeing that here, which is what I was hoping for.
edit- just 12 led's is what makes it look clunky because they are spaced apart. similar to what low resolution is to high resolution i suppose.
edit2 screwit, still best fans on the market.
Does it support MSI Mystic Light or Asus Aura Sync?
Eko Prasetyo Exactly what I'm looking for so fans can work in tendon to my GFX and MoBo
Doesn't work at all on a ryzen 1950x system.....softwares a piece of shit
Yes, if you buy the $25 TT Sync Controller.
are you talking about the one in the vid?
Excellent review mate. All the details, without getting carried away....... = "like & subscribe :)
that is a Thing Linus would use as His climate Fans for His room xD
The software is super buggy though. Ive got 2 controllers connected and when I switch between each controller, the interface goes nuts every now and then.

At least you can get the software working.. When I click run the icon appears in the tray on the bottom right but nothing opens :/
Right click and hit launch TT RGB plus... doh
thanks for the video. the 2nd most annoying part of these fans is the stickers in the middle.... i noticed in both of the videos i viewed there is no uniformity. the #1 most annoying feature is the price.. the software is not bad but there is no way in hell i would even consider paying that kind of $ for fans ? and if i were to even consider it it wouldnt be for a product with stickers on it promoting the co's products thanks but no thanks TT.
And then there is me who could only afford the non plus ones.
Good video!🤙
great video
Very nice
Any link where to buy this?
very EPIC slap you thumb up man
Slap you an EPIC HIGH-5 in return!!!
Great video friend I got the new Corsair ml120 fans white blue
Are those loud
Nice Review!
They really should have made the blades frosted, the black blades dull the colours quite a bit.
The black blades accentuate the RING effect of the RIING fans....
exactly, otherwise it would not be a ring. If you want full coverage of blades get the phantek halos and your fan of choice
I must be the only one bothered by the fact that when a LED is set on RED color. We can see the LED shape through the frosted ring very distinctly.. All the other colors are nicely spread but not the red.
Damn it OCD...
But you know that these fans don't work with the controller. I'm very disappointed. Unfortunately.
100€ for 1 these guys are nuts...
...these are probably one of the cheapest. Controller's included and they don't make you buy separate controllers (LED+fan) (ahem..CORSAIR). There's a five pack on amazon for about 139.99 and it comes with a controller for all 5!
wary nice
I only was able to buy the non plus ones.
Arr Gee Bee
Ohhhh Yeshh Prsss

The software does not work with Ryzen.
Yep, mine are defaulted to RGB. TT support told me it's a BIOS issue because the USB header isn't compatible.
Is this issue resolved? Planning to buy these for my Ryzen rig.
Han yes and no. Idk if the new fans are coming with the new controllers, Thermaltake shipped me new fan controllers which work with Ryzen.
saywhut2
I see. The new fans probably will get the new controller, but the problem is I might get the fans with the old controller if I purchase them from local sellers. They might still have the old stock.. Ugh.. Thanks for the info!
Han even if you do, Thermaltake is really good at replacing it with the new one. Just reach out to customer support and show them the invoice and they will send you a new controller
the red led doesn't look red more orange like
i think thats because of the new frosted style cover. the actual glow coming off onto the blades looks actually red
50 Bucks for a 3 pack really good
Too bad you can't use asus aura
don't buy. rgb software freezes your computer if you have AMD GPU and adrenaline. completely randomly. and yes, if you don't have SATA power male to molex female adapter, you can't use the controller at all. I went all in on thermaltake case and fans yesterday and already would do everything differently. the case has stupid design oversights, physically impossible to use PSU shroud SSD mounts with ATX MOBO, you can't use a 90 degree SATA cable at all.

refraction , not dissapation
i want aura sync rgb fans.... otherwise its shid...
this causes my vega 64 to crash lol ryzen 2700x
the rgb tt software is useless, cannot save profiles
Most viewed video :O
499 Likes and my like ->500 likes NICE
rainbow looks so choopy, even more cheap than cheap fans xd
its too much...
dont buy these thermaltake software is aweful to use your better off buying any other fan that doesnt have that shit software please god dont waste your money like i did
dont buy ...you cant change color, software controller cant be reconized
