Can I control the fan speed and lighting separately?
Yes, the 4-pin PWM connector controls fan speed, while the 3-pin ARGB connector controls lighting. Both can be managed via motherboard software or controllers.
What is the airflow and noise level at maximum speed?
At maximum speed (1800 RPM), the airflow is 127.9 m³/h (75.3 cfm) and the noise level is up to 30.5 dB.
Do these fans come with screws?
Yes, the triple pack includes 12 screws for mounting the three fans.
Troubleshooting
Fan not spinning
Ensure the 4-pin PWM cable is securely connected to the motherboard fan header. Check if the motherboard BIOS/UEFI is set to allow fan operation or if the fan speed is set to 0 RPM in software.
ARGB lights not working or incorrect colors
Verify the 3-pin ARGB cable is correctly connected to a 5V ARGB header on the motherboard or controller. Ensure compatible RGB software is installed and configured correctly. Check that the fan is not set to 0 LEDs in software.
Fan making unusual noise
Check for any obstructions like cables hitting the fan blades. Ensure the fan is securely mounted and not vibrating against the case. If noise persists, it might indicate bearing wear, though MTBF is high.
PWM speed control not functioning
Confirm the 4-pin PWM connector is plugged into a PWM-capable header (often labeled CPU_FAN, SYS_FAN, or CHA_FAN with PWM). Check fan curves in BIOS/UEFI or software.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Mounting: Secure the fans to your computer case or radiator using the included screws. Ensure correct airflow direction (usually indicated by arrows on the fan frame).
Power Connection: Connect the 4-pin PWM connector to a CPU_FAN or SYS_FAN header on your motherboard for speed control.
ARGB Connection: Connect the 3-pin ARGB connector to a compatible ARGB header on your motherboard or an ARGB controller.
Compatibility:
Motherboard Headers: Requires a 4-pin PWM fan header for speed control and a 3-pin 5V ARGB header for lighting synchronization. Check your motherboard specifications.
Case Mounts: Standard 140mm fan mounts are required. Fan dimensions are 140 x 140 x 25 mm.
Voltage: Operates on 12V for fans and 5V for ARGB.
Care:
Cleaning: Periodically clean dust from the fan blades and frame using compressed air or a soft brush. For stubborn dust, a slightly damp cloth can be used, ensuring the fan is disconnected from power and completely dry before re-operation.
Lubrication: The rifle bearing is sealed and does not require lubrication.
