Ventilator ZALMAN ZM-AF 120R ARGB ZWART 120mm met ARGB-verlichting

The ZALMAN ZM-AF 120R ARGB BLACK is a 120mm cooling fan with addressable RGB lighting designed for PC cooling tasks. It delivers airflow for chassis ventilation, radiator push/pull configurations or supplemental airflow on CPU coolers while providing customizable ARGB illumination. The fan follows standard 120mm mounting dimensions and is compatible with motherboards and controllers that support 5V ARGB headers.

Advantages

The fan combines a compact 120mm form factor with addressable RGB lighting, enabling synchronized color effects without altering standard mounting positions. Blade and frame geometry are optimized to balance airflow and acoustic output for typical desktop systems. The black finish integrates with a wide range of system builds while the electrical and connector design ensures straightforward integration with common ARGB control solutions.

Suitable for

• Case ventilation to improve general airflow
• Mounting on 120mm radiators in liquid-cooling loops
• Supplemental airflow on air CPU coolers
• Systems requiring ARGB lighting synchronization with motherboard or controller

Key specifications

• Fan size: 120 mm diameter
• Frame colour: black
• Lighting type: addressable RGB (ARGB), 5V control compatibility
• Mounting: standard 120mm screw holes
• Connector types: PWM power connector and ARGB 3-pin 5V signal connector (compatible with standard 5V ARGB headers)
• Application: case, radiator or CPU cooler airflow

How to use

Install the fan using standard 120mm mounting screws into a compatible fan, case or radiator location. Connect the power and PWM control to the system fan header or PWM hub for speed management. Connect the ARGB signal cable to a 5V ARGB header on the motherboard or to a compatible ARGB controller to enable addressable lighting control. Verify airflow direction markings on the frame to ensure correct intake or exhaust orientation before finalizing mounting. After installation, configure fan speed curves and lighting effects through the motherboard utility or ARGB controller software.

Recommendations

For balanced cooling and low noise, position the fan to create a consistent airflow path through the case and avoid mounting multiple intake and exhaust fans with conflicting directions. Use motherboard or controller software to limit maximum RPM when quiet operation is preferred, and ensure ARGB headers used match the 5V addressable standard to prevent lighting incompatibility.
