Antec is a name that anyone in the PC industry is familiar with. Their offerings include PC cases, fans, CPU coolers, laptop coolers, power supplies and the list goes on. Antec has recently added a whole new line of fans to their already impressive arsenal and it's called the True Quiet series. Antec was kind enough to send us a new True Quiet 120 LED and a True Quiet Pro to check out so let' get to it!

I've been running two of the TrueQuiet 120mm fans since the end of January. TBH they are quiet, my one complaint is that they seem to catch a lot of dust. I have to clean them a lot. (maybe my home is just really dusty?) Didn't seem like my old Cooler Master fans were collecting as much. Then again the seasons have changed and I live on a dirt road. I still recommend them![]()

Will, thanks for the review. I'd like to see the Pro version tested against the Noiseblocker eLoop.
One thing bugs me though, about both of the True Quiet models: no mention of bearing. None. Is Antec embarrassed? I could not buy these fans in good faith without knowing that.

Thanks guys. As far as the bearings go Earthmonger I couldn't find any mention of them either. The frame is a very unique setup and because of that it's SUPER quiet![]()

Good review Will thanks for posting
Definitely cool, but not unique. Noiseblocker beat them to it. And Phobya makes a pimped-out version of the NB eLoop. I am looking at the Antec as competition for those. Except the others are better looking, more innovative, have higher static pressure, and advanced mag-lev bearings. Don't know what bearing the Antec models use, though, so I don't know if they're truly a competitor.
