Man, all those gesture. all those movements.. when you turn off the volume, it looks like this guy is about to release the sickest rap album for 2017..
Moms spaghetti
He's nervous
I actually did this, masangtao speaks truth.
haha same, watched only 5sec, what is he trying to sell me ... xD
If noctua made something decent to look at, I wouldn't have to search for videos like this :/
Solaire_GG Hey! 2 years from the future. Noctua did make black fans
Oh, and don't spray paint the blades in a noctua fan. Aerodynamics
this is why i am here... i wanna dye or paint these grey ones lol
Glad they came out with the black ones. Much nicer to look at..
@@air_ WOOHOO! 🙌
I use to work at a major fan manufacturer and saw the aerodynamics involved explained to me, the fan blades are precision designed to slice the air efficiently and quietly to the weight & properties of the materials used. By adding paint on the blades even a thin layer its changing the properties of the air slicing and surface friction and all engineering thats gone in to the blade shape and weighting. I dread to think of taking a top engineered fan and slapping paint on it.
+Sandra Wayne thanks for the explanation, i knew that something would unbalance but you have cleared it up. I do agree that it is not the best for the fan but for systems that are either for show or don't have a long life expediency then i guess looks come before anything else. But again, thanks :)
If you have cheap fans then sure enough, go ahead and do you want with them. I did it with stock case fans and they lasted years. I would never do it on expensive fans though lol
but... did you see noctua fans?
I'd add a few items:
1) Use some alcohol to clean the surface first. It's been in use, take extra care to remove all dust.
2) Use a hair dryer to warm up the label for easier removal.
3) Consider printing your own centre labels, it can really make it look unique. Lots of self-printing places.
4) Be patient, painting properly takes time.
5) Read the instructions.
6) If you use Plasti-Dip, which is awesome stuff, warm it up in hot water first, and shake the hell out of it.
7) To speed up the curing, bake it. My preferred method is a large empty box with only one end open, using a small ceramic space heater. Won't get hot enough to start a fire, but will speed up curing a lot. Caution, metal parts will be really hot afterwards.
8) Patients, cannot stress this enough.
9) For really good look, after a few coats and proper curing, perform light wet sanding (1000+ grit), and apply more light coats.
Can you please just redo this video lol
Love the background items. Nostalgic! Flashback to the good old days.
It's bin almost 5 years, How is that paint job holding up?
Not a good idea, paint adds weight to the fans and creates unwanted drag. This result in lower RPM and a lower life span for the motor.... so at ur ownrisk people
If done right, the difference is negligible.
yea. if you paint at all you are likely going to get vibrations. i would rather not and get rgb fans and such

One uneven layer and it'll throw the fan off. If you think about how many times the fan will spin over it's lifetime, it WILL mess up the far over time.
I stuffed some paper into the holes in the back of the fan and spray-painted everything. Works great, looks great.
Pfffft I don't need no fans. I just leave the side of my case open!
I hope u are joking
I leave mine in a fridge
you beast
if you have a big enough heatsink for your cpu then why not? i turn all my fans off whenever i leave my pc on overnight since i can't sleep when the fans are spinning.
cause shutting the pc isn´t better.
For the whole video I felt like something hilarious was gonna happen, lol idk why. Good video though!
How to start a tech channel - step 1: make your background all the boxes you have of GPUs.... nah seriously good video man keep it up
Painting fans can be a headache lol... good job brother :)
I just asked myself, "Why Am I Watching This? I Like My White Fans", then I remember that I wanted to switch to those ugly Noctua fans :D
watched a bunch of your other videos. you deserve so many more subscribers. keep up the good work. i subbed :-)
that sticker! off center. If it does not make the fan rattle. create some vibration to degree added noise.
Man I love the background with the boxes. Looks pretty cool. I almost want to do that as an accent wall now.
What are those!!!!! 4:40
Jason Bronzo Crocs
Lmao
A nice pair of black crocs
Lol chill out
such a good idea to put a label on the container that holds the fans...don't wanna grab the wrong box...
All i can hear is how he sounds like trisha takanawa from family guy with the exaggerated endings.
why is so many people roasting this man, is it just because he doesn't have too many subscribers? do you need subscribers to deserve respect?
No it's probably because the over exertion of energy and the way he speaks is too similar to that weird guy on the sports channel (or most other youtubers) so it all comes across as disingenuous and feels like he isn't being himself. Oh and I would also say that annoying introduction with the techno music that every single tech channel has. It makes me cringe every time I see one.
Do not do with noctua fans I know lots of people want to do it.
why not 😂, the total viwes of the video are from noctua users xD
Facu Padi -MS- i use corsair ml120-pro. I am not painting it but I love the colour of how fan because it reminds me of the xperia xz premium rosso red.
pretty sure the outside is plastic
I ripped my fan clean out of my fan housing. Thanks for this sweeet video.
gg RIP
love your wall :)
Oh yeah congrats on 5k man I didn't even notice 😜 I been around so long I feel old
ha ha yeah thanks man, good to see you still around :)
CPU modder and don't worry I'm not leaving I've just been going through some tough times recently with the loss of my dad but yeah.....like I said a while back don't forget a out us little People once ya get big
bro was making 4k videos 7 years ago
Dude! Your skin got so much better! great!
It's possible to remove the fan blades of the ml 120 pro black to painting the blades on white? Thanks
nice job mate :-) I can only hope my custom jobs can look that sweet
Alright folks. Here we go.
Take the fan apart.
Prime it.
Paint it.
Wait for it to dry.
Put it back together. I don't know what you were expecting.
Man! The Energetic Opening! I Like It. :)
Fantastic!
Dose the Corsair ml 120 series fans come apart like this I really want to paint them but im scared to brake them lol
good walkthrough man. liked it.
great paint job, subbed.
when he said a few days i laughed because you could paint it in probably only one day. i've painted multiple things in half a day-day with multiple coats. you just got to know when to do it
+kwratster you can but for the most part if you live in a colder climate you would want to leave it for some time to cure.
i'm not sure my sys fan does come out like that fan used in the video
whoah thoose hand of yours need to calmdown ....btw this guy needs more subs this content is guuud
omfg this guy sounds like a instructor from a paintball place lol
I will steal that box collection!!!!!
:)
If i paint a fan, after, i'll got the same performance or doing this can make the fan slower, and i lose performance?
+andrea68707 the performance loss will only be a few rpm
+andrea68707 Not a big deal in performance loss,but it could get a *little* noisier if you dont do it right since then there would be an inbalance on the blades themselfes,which could lead to more noise,just watch out that it is even sprayed and you will be totally fine
Sir which paint to use
any name go to hardware shop and ask him give me spray paint just that?
from memory i used British paints but most quality spray paints will do fine
+1 this ferrari red and chiny surface looks deluxe xD
That would add weight and make the fan slower
I feel like I'm watching a cod Zombies Easter egg tutorial
FFS! I just broke the f***ing fan!! And idk the reason why im laughing :)))
any premature wear over time?
dude 4k vid ! wow nice
How about a thermaltake riing
Can this be done with Noctua fans?
i believe it will depend on the model
painting noctua blades causes them to seriously unbalance and raises the db noticably. painted the nf-12's and the fan on the nhl9a. the 12 went from damn near silent to sounding like a case fan running full tilt and the 9a fan went from whisper quit off of the heatsink and a soft purr on to sounding like an old am2 heatsink fan running full boar. tested the 12s on the case and the 9a fan on the included heatsink. all inside a be quit! dark base pro 900. however the outside edge painted 12s are running just fine however i only painted the outside channels i refrained from painting the interior area because i figured it would distort the wind profile.
What the brand of primer and paint that you used ???
+Beneath Manners British paints but any plastic primer from a reputable brand will do
CPU modder THANKS
Good
thanks
Little tip would be to use plastidip instead of normal paint. not as heavy as paint, and if you apply the correct amount of layers (5-6 layers) you can actually peel it off if you no longer want that color.
lol noctua sales will increase after thus video...
(everybody like their cooling but that ugly poop colour is atrocious)
ima forget about this in a year though
can someone please explain to me why fan logo is never designed to look good when spined? DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERPPPPPPP
people are weird
spun
Shouldn't you be chasing crocodiles or something?
+Justin Thompson nah only on weekends
+Justin Thompson How 2 be American?
Why is your voice sounds like tv cable narrator
The apple watch box under the razer blackwidow box has really been bugging me >:(
it's not apple watch
Also how he is using the spray is very bad you should do quick up and down moving to the side movements. The way you see people spray cars.
I know this is random but if anybody is still reading this comment section and thinking about doing this, this comment is incorrect and the method shown in the video is correct. Cars are mostly comprised of straight panels, fans are not. Different angles and shapes of the blades makes the technique a little different.
Not trashing on the commenter, just clearing up misinformation.
Are you techdeals' son?
How do you have only 1474 subs?
Im his 2000th sub
+Ian Witten yep
Imo that's alot or subs for him not being critical but he needs to put more into his videos and personality to set him apart from other channels.
But still, his videos look good, and he isnt that far off from todays top channels.
he has 2759 now but ikr hes good
Can we do this on any fan
only if the fan can be disassembled
Never paint any pc fans guys, it makes them less reliable and can make them way louder.
will this affect performance?
+abdullah redwan depends on your measurement. if you are going to be testing it under lab conditions then yeah it will make a difference, but if you are putting it in your pc, you should see little to no difference in cooling performance. maybe 3-4 rpm difference but really not that much to note. do keep in mind this can also decrease the life of the fan, not by much if done right but there will be a very slight decrease. something like 5 years in stead of 6 year life span as an example
paint to watch you speaking... but I muted.. so I'm ok
Hello, can someone here tell me if "mtn 94" is a good paint for pc?
I have never used them personally but taking a look i may just have to get a few cans as there range is super big. most paints that will adhere to plastics will work with pc parts
+CPU modder Thanks!
It´s one of the best paints! I painted my case a graphics card a softair gun and other stuff..! It doesn´ smell bad, drys out relly quick and is quiete ressistant
Thanks for the answer! Did you buy the mtn94 fixer too? Did you applied before or after the coats of paint ?
I didn´t buy the fixer but i guess it won´t hurt if you do so.. I took some normal clear coat
my fans wont pop off help...
+LiuGamerChannel depending on the model they may not be able to be disassembled
oh... i have the fractal design silent series R3 140mm...
Yes my NH-D14 can run my 4690k at stock clocks :P
dont paint fan blades bruh. its just going to wear them hard
good video though A++
Man you should try not speak like your doing a school presentation, would make the videos alot more proffesional
told me to push on the fan blades
lol this just broke the fan
+Jeff Fruchter You need to push it very slowly. But not hold it and push it until the fan brakes
+Jeff Fruchter Its your own fault for being stupid enough to push on the blades.... simple physics dude, you push in the middle..
+sonictales69 lol I was pushing the middle. it was the fan housing that broke. its just a really cheep fan that was old. my better fan came out no problem
Jeff Fruchter Oh fer sure my bad, read your comment wrong lol
Link For Spray?
+Matthew Desultory i cant find the exact cans on line but these are the closest to what i used www.britishpaints.com.au/paint-products/product-selector/british-paints-spray-easy-glossa
as for primer i can not find it any where other than in store but this should give the same results
www.supercheapauto.com.au/online-store/products/Septone-Plastic-Adhesion-Primer-400g.aspx?pid=105783#Recommendations
+Matthew Desultory You can find find many types of sprays in the local hardware store
that certainly was not a light a coat lol
how the fuck did you even get the fan out that easy wtf!!!!
You should NEVER do this.. You are teaching bad methods...... You should never ever.. paint your fans.. The people in the comments saying it wont actually make that big of a difference or it isnt bad for your fans have simply never actually tested this.. I have. It definitely causes drag and vibration.. making the fan heavier as well.. causing them to use more power.. more power is more thermal heat.. more thermal heat = bad. Also, if you DO plan to do this.. at least take the proper steps and take your time and prepare your surface correctly. Sanding helps the paint adhere to the plastic. Also, you need to prime it with PLASTIC PRIMER. making sure you let it dry completely after 2 light coats and your 3rd coat a little heavier.
The amount of paint you used on the very first coat gave me anxiety.. there was no real method.. Almost like your going as fast as you can only to make content for the channel quickly... Teaching inproper techniques is the same thing as spreading false knowledge.. It only hurts the people wanting to learn.
With all of that being said.. it does like half way nice.. Not being rude. Just trying to make sure somoene who is curious about doing this has some proper info
you made a 1 minute worthy video into 8 mins.. why
this isn't a cpu mod
I'm reading the comments, please for the love of god don't paint your fans. Especially not Noctua!
lmao this guy has advertising voice
At first I thought wow he's trying to hard but no.... it's not that bad... (seriously)
Why do you keep saying WE? it's just you. own it bro.
+forestR1 I, me, I'm, myself, ! :D
What audience, its just him there
Come on dude, Crocs? Really?
-lol-
-heh-
Cool video but you need to calm down!!
....creepy dude
eh what is this
people are so stupid. why u worrying about you fans life span, fans are 10 - 20 bucks ooooh cant afford it? if the fan goes buy another and paint that bad boy. sheesh. worry about the costly stuff like your gpu getting paint on it from dislogded paint from the fan Id say.
Sloppy job
I'll never know how to paint my fans now, due to this guys very annoying mannerisms and voice that made me turn the video off after 10 seconds.
you talk to much !!!!!!
*too
