World's Biggest Computer Fan: Corsair 500mm LL RGB Fan

Our most revolutionary test yet is here: Corsair made a 500mm fan, and it’s our job to test it. We also tear it down and repair it in this video, because 500mm needs a big motor.

The Corsair 500mm LL RGB fan was, we think, made as a joke – but it’s Corsair, so we’re not quite sure. Sometimes it’s hard to tell with them. In any event, the fan is about the size of an entire glass side panel for a PC case, and so we thought it’d be fun to do an actual thermal benchmark with it in a fully controlled environment, using our standard case reviews test bench for the thermal testing.

Our new fan testing equipment is expensive, but you can help support us by back-ordering the GN Teardown Toolkit! Back-order now to make sure you get one in the next shipment: https://store.gamersnexus.net/products/gamersnexus-tear-down-toolkit
