Rank #8 in Best Case Fans 2026: 9 Ranked by What a Fan Actually Costs
be quiet! Light Wings 120mm ARGB PWM Fan, Single
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The be quiet! Light Wings 120mm PWM high-speed is the entry at number 8 in this guide. It is one 120mm case fan with ARGB lighting at the front and rear from 18 LEDs, a 4-pin PWM connector and a maximum speed of 2,500 RPM. The listing price is £18.99, and it holds 4.7 out of 5 from 433 ratings.
What makes this entry worth reading is what that £18.99 actually buys. The listing gives the number of packs as 1, the number of items as 1 and the unit count as 1.0 count, so unlike most of this guide the price on the page is the price of exactly one fan. The same Light Wings 120mm PWM high-speed also turns up elsewhere in this list as a three-pack at £44.99, which works out at £15.00 a fan. Its noise figure will not line up with the rest of the list either: be quiet! quotes 31 dB(A) at maximum fan speed, while some fans here are quoted in sones, so those tables are not in the same unit. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing, not from testing we carried out ourselves.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“Performs well and looks good.I don't use it at the max 2500 rpm so wouldn't know if it's noisier than others at those speeds, but at around 1700rpm they are noisy but bearable (when cpu is at 100% load). Lower than 1700rpm then it's a gentle hum, and below 1000rpm it's hardly audible, unless in a dead silent room.”
Verified purchase“Would like them to be a bit even more silent was expecting them to ve complete silent as they are "be quite"”
