Tuuletin Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync PC-tuuletin Hydrangea Blue

The Thermaltake CT120 EX Reverse ARGB Sync PC Cooling Fan Hydrangea Blue is a 120 mm case fan that combines reversed blades, addressable RGB lighting and an improved magnetic quick-connect system (MagForce 2.0) to simplify installation and enhance airflow visibility. Designed for compatibility with 5V addressable RGB headers, this fan keeps a rated speed of 2000 RPM while delivering up to 65.82 CFM airflow and 1.87 mm-H2O static pressure with a measured noise level of 31.2 dBA. The Hydrangea Blue finish provides a uniform color appearance when used with motherboard ARGB control software.

Advantages

MagForce 2.0 improves the magnetic quick-connect interface with larger Pogo pin contact pads for more tolerant and reliable connections when daisy-chaining or connecting by cable, reducing installation errors and cable clutter. The reversed blade design directs airflow from rear to front while keeping the ARGB lighting fully visible. The fan frame is reinforced to resist deformation and fit radiators or chassis more closely to prevent air leakage. Corner anti-vibration rubber pads reduce vibration and allow higher stable speeds. Nine addressable LEDs support 16.8 million colors and synchronize with major motherboard RGB software.

Suitable for

• PC chassis cooling where visible ARGB lighting is desired
• Radiator or AIO fan replacement with a 120 mm form factor
• Builds using motherboard 5V addressable RGB (ASUS, MSI, GIGABYTE, ASRock, BIOSTAR)
• Systems requiring a compact, quick-connect fan setup to reduce cable clutter

How to use

Mount the fan in a standard 120 mm position in your case or on a radiator, aligning screw holes and using the supplied screws. Connect the MagForce 2.0 quick connect or the fan cable to other CT EX fans as needed, then plug the 3-pin power connector to the fan header and the 3-pin/5V ARGB connector to a 5V addressable RGB header on the motherboard. Use your motherboard’s supported RGB software (ASUS Aura, MSI Mystic Light, GIGABYTE RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome) to control lighting effects. Ensure correct polarity and header type before applying power.

Recommendations

For ARGB lighting control, connect the ARGB cable only to a 5V addressable RGB header on a compatible motherboard and enable synchronization in the motherboard software. Avoid connecting to 12V RGB headers. When installing on radiators, ensure the fan frame sits flush to reduce airflow gaps. Regularly check mounting and cable connections to maintain optimal performance.
