CO-9051049-WW

Overview

The Corsair iCUE LINK LX120-R RGB 120mm PWM Reverse Fan Expansion (Part Number CO-9051049-WW) is engineered to enhance your PC cooling system while maintaining a pristine aesthetic. Designed specifically for intake installation, the reverse rotor configuration ensures the vibrant RGB ring remains fully visible from the front of your case, delivering a clean and uninterrupted visual appeal. This expansion fan integrates seamlessly into the iCUE LINK ecosystem, allowing users to connect multiple compatible components through a single cable solution for superior cable management and a streamlined build process.

Description

This high-performance 120mm fan combines advanced lighting with powerful airflow capabilities. The unit features 18 individually addressable LEDs arranged in dual loops, enabling customisable RGB effects that sync with other Corsair iCUE devices. Equipped with a Magnetic Dome bearing for quiet operation and long-term durability, it supports zero RPM modes to eliminate noise during low-load scenarios. For easier installation, the fan includes innovative QuikTurn mounting screws. Note that an iCUE LINK System Hub is required to activate these expansion capabilities.

Features

Cooling Performance and Design
The LX120-R delivers robust cooling performance with PWM-controlled speeds reaching up to 2,400 RPM. This speed range allows for precise airflow management, generating a maximum of 66.7 CFM and achieving static pressure of up to 4.72 mmH2O. These metrics make the fan highly effective for both general case airflow and pushing air through dense radiator fins. The Magnetic Dome bearing technology reduces friction significantly, contributing to an impressive lifespan rated at 50,000 hours while keeping operating noise levels low.

Smart Control and Lighting Customisation
Users gain full control over their system's look and sound through the iCUE software suite. The fan supports intelligent fan curves that adjust speed based on temperature, ensuring optimal cooling without unnecessary noise. Additionally, Zero RPM PWM signal support allows the blades to stop completely when temperatures are low, creating a silent environment. For visual enthusiasts, the software enables Corsair's unique Time Warp lighting effect and full RGB synchronisation across compatible devices.
