04.10.2018, Oststeinbek (Germany) – Japanese cooling expert Scythe presents six RGB-enabled Kaze Flex 120 mm case fans. These new Kaze Flex 120 RGB fans combine the outstanding characteristics of the series, including long life span of 120.000 hours, excellent reliability and quiet running with great RGB LED illumination. The fans are equipped with a 4-pin RGB connector, which allows the direct connection to RGB-enabled motherboards and support RGB illumination systems such as ASUS™ Aurora Sync, ASRock™ RGB LED, MSI™ Mystic Light Sync and Gigabyte™ RGB Fusion. Users are able to adjust the illumination by the respective motherboard vendor’s software or other aftermarket 12 volts 4-Pin RGB controllers.
The Kaze Flex 120 PWM case fans became the standard fan for latest Scythe CPU coolers, thanks to their silent and reliable operation as well as great flexibility. New Kaze Flex 120 RGB inherit all the advantages, including the premium-grade self-contained fluid dynamic bearing (Sealed Precision FDB) which assures quiet running and long life span of up to 120.000 hours. Both the bearing and the spindle are made entirely of high quality compressed metal and lubricated by a special oil film resistant to temperatures of up to 250°C / 480°F. The Kaze Flex 120 RGB frame is equipped with black rubber shock-absorbers, which prevent the transfer of vibration.
Bright and consistent illumination of the translucent fan blades is achieved by implementing eight RGB LEDs, which are located around the fan rotor. Users can conveniently control the RGB illumination by connecting the Kaze Flex 120 RGB fan to the 4-pin RGB connector of RGB-enabled motherboards. Supported RGB systems include ASUS™ Aurora Sync, ASRock™ RGB LED, MSI™ Mystic Light Sync and Gigabyte™ RGB Fusion as well as other aftermarket 12 volts 4-Pin RGB controllers. In addition to that, it is possible to loop through another RGB fan by connecting the fan to the 4-pin RGB extension at the end of the cable. Thanks to all these features Kaze Flex 120 RGB fans are perfectly suited to be used as a versatile Case Fan as well as the perfect companion for a CPU Cooler or AIO radiator.
