Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between standard and reverse fan blades?
The SWAFAN 120 EX INFINITY includes both blade types for flexible airflow configuration. Standard blades optimize intake mounting with 58.13 CFM airflow, while reverse blades are ideal for exhaust setups. Simply swap blades to match your cooling strategy without purchasing additional fans.
Is this 120mm case fan compatible with AIO coolers?
Yes, the SWAFAN 120 EX fits standard 120mm radiator mounts found on most all-in-one liquid coolers. The complete accessory set includes mounting hardware for both case and radiator applications, making installation straightforward.
How do I sync the ARGB lighting with my motherboard?
The ARGB Sync Snow fan connects directly to your motherboard's RGB header. Use your motherboard manufacturer's RGB control software to synchronize lighting effects across compatible devices. MagForce 2.0 cabling ensures secure, tool-free connections.
What noise level should I expect during normal operation?
The hydraulic bearing design keeps noise minimal at 30 dBA on standard blade configuration and 32 dBA on reverse blades—comparable to whisper-quiet operation. PWM speed control lets you further reduce noise by lowering rpm during light workloads.
