Fan Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync 12 cm 500-2000 RPM Brown Sand

The Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync 12 cm fan offers variable speed from 500 to 2000 RPM and is designed to improve case airflow and cooling performance. Featuring the MagForce 2.0 magnetic connection system and reversed fan blades, the model preserves high airflow while ensuring addressable RGB lighting remains visible from multiple airflow directions. The fan uses a hydraulic bearing for quieter operation and provides up to 1.87 mmH2O static pressure suitable for pressure-optimized cooling setups.

Advantages

The CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync combines a wide RPM range with a MagForce 2.0 magnetic connector for faster, more secure fan assembly and improved reliability. Its reversed blade design makes the ARGB illumination clearly visible regardless of airflow direction, and the hydraulic bearing reduces noise while maintaining stable rotation. PWM support allows precise speed control through compatible motherboard headers, and the included three-fan pack simplifies multi-fan installations.

Suitable for

• Airflow-focused PC cases requiring 120 mm fans
• Builds that need adjustable cooling between 500–2000 RPM
• Systems where ARGB lighting synchronization with the motherboard is desired
• Radiator or front-panel installations needing moderate static pressure (up to 1.87 mmH2O)

Key specifications

• Static pressure: 1.87 mmH2O (hydraulic bearing)
• Lighting: 9 addressable LEDs, ARGB motherboard sync
• Color: Brown, Sand
• Package quantity: 3 pcs

How to use

Install the fan in a standard 120 mm mounting location in your PC case using the supplied screws. Connect the PWM power connector to a compatible 4-pin motherboard fan header to enable speed control between 500 and 2000 RPM. Attach the ARGB cable to an addressable RGB header on the motherboard and use the motherboard’s sync software to control the nine addressable LEDs. Ensure airflow orientation matches your intended intake or exhaust configuration; the reversed blade design preserves lighting visibility in either orientation.

Recommendations

For balanced cooling and noise, use PWM control and set fan curves in your motherboard software. When installing on radiators or restricted front panels, prioritize static pressure placement; for general case airflow, position the fans as intake or exhaust according to your case layout. Verify ARGB compatibility with your motherboard manufacturer before connecting.
