Cooling performance


The XPG Vento Pro 120 PWM is a high-performance cooling fan that has garnered attention for its impressive blend of efficiency, durability and quiet operation. Developed in collaboration with Nidec, the fan is based on the renowned Gentle Typhoon design, which has been a favorite among enthusiasts for years. This partnership has resulted in a product that not only inherits the Gentle Typhoon’s reliability but also introduces enhancements that elevate its performance to new heights.

Unboxing

One of the standout features of the Vento Pro 120 PWM is its ability to deliver high static pressure and airflow, making it an excellent choice for cooling radiators and densely packed chassis. With a maximum airflow of 75 CFM and a static pressure of 3.15 mm H2O, the fan ensures efficient heat dissipation even under demanding conditions. Its dual ball-bearing design contributes to its longevity, boasting an impressive mean time to failure (MTTF) of up to 250,000 hours at 25°C. This durability is further complemented by its ability to operate at high temperatures, with an MTTF of 60,000 hours at 60°C.

Noise levels are another area where the Vento Pro 120 PWM excels and the fan is equipped with anti-vibration rubber pads and a double-vibration reduction structure, which work together to minimize noise output. At full speed, the fan produces a maximum noise level of just 28 dBA, making it one of the quieter options in its category. This low noise level is achieved without compromising performance, thanks to the fan’s carefully engineered propeller design that reduces disturbing frequencies.

The fan’s PWM functionality allows for precise control over its speed, ranging from 900 to 2150 RPM in PWM mode and 450 to 2150 RPM in DC mode. This flexibility enables users to balance performance and noise according to their specific needs. Additionally, the Vento Pro 120 PWM features a daisy-chain capable design, making it easy to connect multiple fans for enhanced cooling solutions.

In terms of build quality, the Vento Pro 120 PWM is constructed with durable materials that ensure long-term reliability. Its compact dimensions of 120 x 120 x 25 mm make it compatible with a wide range of setups, while its sleek black design adds a touch of sophistication to any system. The fan also comes with a five-year warranty, reflecting XPG’s confidence in its product.

Final Thoughts?

The XPG Vento Pro 120 PWM is an impressive cooling fan that combines high performance, durability and quiet operation. Whether you’re building a gaming rig, a workstation, or simply upgrading your existing system, this fan is a reliable choice that delivers exceptional results. Its thoughtful design and advanced features make it a standout option in the competitive world of PC cooling solutions that comes with a very respectable 5-year warranty.
