Performance – Max & Speed Percentage
Max RPM, CFM, Pressure & Power
The fan’s maximum speed is relatively low, so I don’t expect miracles in airflow. Nonetheless, given its low rotation speed, the fan scores an impressive score in static pressure. Lastly, the power consumption is increased because of the LCD screen.
10 (or 50) – 100% Fan Speed Percentage
Since most fan control ICs don’t apply precisely the percentage of RPM speed that you want (e.g., 50% PWM for a 2000 RPM fan should be 1000 RPM), I used to find the fan’s maximum speed and then dial directly the fan speeds that corresponded to 10%, 20%, and so on of its maximum rated speed. I decided to stop doing that. So from now on, in all of my fan evaluations, I will dial the corresponding PWM value in 10% steps to also check how accurate its fan controller is and for my noise results to align with the airflow and static pressure results from the Longwin apparatus where I don’t use RPM but PWM control for all testing.
Definitely DONNOT BUY THOSE FANS!
REASONS:
– L CONNECT doing nothing consumes 7% of your resources.
– each LCD screen consumes 3 to 7% of resources, especially animation or gauges. Only static images don’t consume.
– they seem to fail in under two years, when this happens replacing is a pain since they are interlocked.
When I turn all my screens to cpu gauge, it read 45% utilization just because of lian lis crappy software. 9950x, 4090, 192gb ram.
I even stopped buying their cases as a result, after 20 years of brand loyalty it evaporated due to these fans. L connect is a frankenstein as is their line of 30 incompatible unnecessarily diverse fan lines.
Amazing work! Thank you for this.

Great for when half your fans are oriented in a way where the display isn’t visible.
