Fan Phanteks D30-120 12 cm White 250-2000 RPM Fluid Dynamic Bearing

The Phanteks D30-120 is a 120 mm case fan with a 250–2000 RPM speed range and Fluid Dynamic Bearing for reduced noise and longer life. It features a 30 mm thick aerodynamic blade design derived from the T30 series, a white frame and blades, and integrated D-RGB lighting visible around the frame and reflected on the blades. Two airflow models are available — Regular (front-to-rear) and Reversed (rear-to-front) — and multiple D30-120 units can be linked together using bridge connectors and screw cover plates to minimize visible cabling.

Advantages

The increased 30 mm thickness improves noise-normalized performance, making the fan effective on radiators, mesh panels and dust filters. Integrated D-RGB lighting provides uniform illumination from all sides and the HALOS lighting ring produces a smooth reflected effect on the blades. Bridge connectors allow up to four fans to be connected as one unit and screw covers hide mounting screws for a cleaner appearance. The fan uses a standard PWM connector for direct motherboard speed control.

Suitable for

• Case airflow and exhaust in desktop PCs
• Radiator cooling in liquid-cooled systems
• High-restriction setups with mesh panels or dust filters
• Systems requiring synchronized D-RGB lighting

Key specifications

• Fan diameter: 120 mm
• Speed range: 250–2000 RPM
• Bearing type: Fluid Dynamic Bearing
• Maximum static pressure: 2.72 mmH2O
• Colour: White
• Lighting: Integrated D-RGB (compatible with Digital-RGB motherboards)
• Models: Regular (front-to-rear) and Reversed (rear-to-front)

How to use

Install the fan in the desired airflow orientation: choose the Regular model to push air from front to rear or the Reversed model to push air from rear to front. Mount the fan using the included screws and attach screw covers if a clean exterior is preferred. Connect the fan’s PWM cable to a motherboard PWM header for automatic speed control and connect the Digital-RGB cable to a compatible header or Phanteks D-RGB controller to manage lighting.

Recommendations

For optimal cooling and low noise, use the D30-120 on radiators or behind fine mesh filters and control fan speed via motherboard PWM curves. When installing multiple fans, use the bridge connectors to reduce cable clutter and ensure consistent lighting by connecting D-RGB headers according to the motherboard or controller manual.
