Fan Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync 12cm 65.82 cfm Black

The Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync is a 120 mm PC cooling fan that combines reversed blades, MagForce 2.0 magnetic quick-connect technology and 9 addressable LEDs to deliver efficient airflow and customizable ARGB lighting. With a maximum speed that reaches 2000 RPM, the fan provides up to 65.82 CFM airflow and 1.87 mm-H2O static pressure while operating at a measured noise level around 31.2 dBA. It uses a hydraulic bearing for quieter operation and is compatible with 5V addressable motherboard RGB headers for synchronization with major motherboard RGB software.

Advantages

MagForce 2.0 improves the magnetic connection with larger pogo-pin contact pads, reducing alignment faults and simplifying daisy-chaining or cable connections. Reversed fan blades make the ARGB lighting fully visible regardless of airflow direction, and the fan frame has been reinforced to reduce deformation and prevent air leakage around chassis or radiator mounts. Anti-vibration rubber pads on each corner dampen vibration for steadier operation at higher speeds. The nine addressable LEDs support 16.8 million colors and sync with ASUS, MSI, GIGABYTE, BIOSTAR and ASRock software.

Suitable for

• Airflow and radiator cooling in gaming and workstation PC builds
• ARGB lighting setups requiring motherboard sync (5V addressable RGB header)
• Systems where magnetic quick-connect fan chaining is desired to reduce cable clutter
• Replacement or upgrade of standard 120 mm case or radiator fans

How to use

Mount the CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync fan in a standard 120 mm fan location on the chassis or radiator, ensuring the reversed blade orientation matches the desired airflow direction (rear-to-front visibility of lighting). Connect the fan power and MagForce 2.0 magnetic connectors as instructed to daisy-chain multiple fans or attach via cable. Plug the ARGB cable into a 5V addressable RGB header on the motherboard to enable lighting control through compatible motherboard software. Follow your motherboard manual for proper pin alignment and software setup.

Recommendations

Install fans with the anti-vibration rubber pads in place and ensure secure mounting to minimize noise. Use a motherboard with a 5V addressable RGB header and the corresponding manufacturer RGB software to control lighting; without a compatible 5V header, ARGB effects will not function. When daisy-chaining multiple fans, confirm MagForce 2.0 connections are aligned before powering on to avoid connection errors.
