Corsair CO-9050039-WW ML Series ML120 120 mm Low Noise High Pressure Premium Magnetic Levitation Fan - Black/Grey (Pack of 2)

Product Information

Once the fans are connected to the lighting hub, lighting node pro, and your PC, the next step is setting up the software for your fans. You can do that by following the steps listed below: Designed for use with Watson-Marlow tubing for peristaltic pumps. L x W x H: 8.1 x 4.3 x 4.4 in. (20.6 x 10.9 x 11.2cm); weight: 3.7 lb. (16.8kg) Certifications These fans run at low noise even at high loads; however, the ML series are louder than the LL120s. The ML 120s can go up to 30 decibels while the LL120s max out at 24.8 decibels. Yes, the ML120s are louder but that’s because they spin faster at higher loads and can reach up to 2000RPM compared to the max 1500 RPM of the LL120s. – Setting Up I wanted to get some new Corsair stuff for more RGB on my setup, but I am very confused by all the different RGB controllers and junk you need. The fans themselves feature two cables with one connecting to the motherboard or fan control unit and the other connecting to the RGB control unit. – Performance

Now plug the SATA power connectors into your PSU and turn on your system. Your fans should start working and the RGB should light up immediately. – Setting Up the Software The LL120 is the best fan for those who are looking for premium cooling performance and excellent RGB effects without sacrificing their noise levels. They come with over ten cooling effects and since their RPM is only up to 1500, they run quietly even at max load. – Features This means that you’d get better cooling and airflow from the ML120 than you would on the LL120s. Also, thanks to the guided fins of the ML120s, you’ll get better-targeted airflow throughout the case though the fins don’t make for excellent aesthetics.It's about time someone came out with reverse fans again (remember some from a long time ago) especially considering how much glass is being forced on us with modern pc cases. For as much as I’ve written about case and cooling performance in my time, the fans included with most of the cases and radiators that find their way into the TR labs have been good enough that I’ve never felt any urge to consider premium aftermarket spinners. That’s become especially true as silicon process sizes have shrunk and chips have usually consumed less and less power to deliver a given level of performance. The slow-moving 120-mm and 140-mm fans in many modern cases move enough air quietly that only those with special needs really need to consider tearing out the included spinners from those enclosures. ML120 and 140 are quiet and push a lot of air so those are my choice, however I bought also one bequiet SW3 and it is perfect as well. In the future I would choose between those two. You should choose your RGB fan based on their lighting and appearance. Differences in actual cooling performance are small and hard to distinguish. You did not mention what CPU you are planning to use, but even with a high watt model the difference between 3xQL120 and 3xML120 on the radiator might be 1.5C at like speeds. That's a fairly small trade-off for to get the lighting you want. Case fans are likely to be even less influential. It is very difficult to make noticeable changes in ambient temperature if the speeds remain the same. If you intend to actually run a fan at 2400 rpm, then that is a different matter. Aside from that, you sometimes get fans that have the exact right airflow angle to strike a temperature sensitive piece of hardware, like m.2 drives or RAM. Those are instances where one fan may have a clear cooling benefit over another, but it is very difficult to predict and extremely case and locations specific. I already have 3 RGB ML120s, and from what I can gather, the cooler comes with 2 more RGB ML120s and a Commander Core.

RGB LED components are nothing without software to control them, and in the case of the ML120 Pro RGBs, that duty falls to Corsair’s Link utility. On top of its system-monitoring capabilities, Link can be used to customize various settings of Corsair’s wide range of compatible peripherals, including PSUs, heatsinks, entire fan-control hubs, and more. For the ML120 Pro RGBs, we get control over lighting color and eight prebaked animation effects. A 750W power supply is recommended for RTX 3080 systems, so that's what we've gone for here. If you plan to use an RTX 3070, feel free to swap in a 650W PSU instead. We like modular and semi-modular power supplies because they leave more space free in your case for building, but non-modular alternatives are fine too. Brand is important here; we recommend the likes of Corsair, Seasonic, EVGA and Be Quiet! Any mainstream brand should be fine, but you really want to avoid no-name units here as if your PSU goes, it may take every other component in your system with it. Additionally, look for at least a Gold rated power supply as this indicates a base level of efficiency.The other side of the lighting node pro has the USB connector, which connects to your motherboard via the USB cable that comes with the kit. One end of this USB cable is mini-USB while the other end features a nine-pin USB header. Also, there’s a SATA power connector that powers the lighting node pro. – Setting Up the Fan and Connectors Good question! In that case, swap out the Ryzen 5 5600X and B550/X570 motherboard for a Core i5 11400F, Core i5 11600K or Core i9 11900K - or consider 10th-gen alternatives that likely provide even better value, including the 10900K that has more cores and therefore better all-core performance for content creation than the 11900K.
