Phanteks T30-120 Cooling Fan Review – ReCheck!

Advertised Vs. Real Performance

This is probably the most crucial page, showing how accurate is the data provided by the manufacturers/brands on their products. Since nobody so far could verify these numbers, it was an open field for every brand to declare whatever it wanted, but this stops now.

Advertised Vs. Real Performance - High Speed:
  • Max Speed (RPM): 3000/ 3022
  • Max Input Current (A): 0.36 / 0.428
  • Max Power (W): 4.32 / 5.14
  • Qmax (CFM): 101 / 105.17
  • Pmax (mmAq): 7.11 / 6.37
  • Max Noise Level (dBA): 39.7 / 43.6

The claimed airflow is 4.13% higher than the claimed performance.
The claimed static pressure is 10.41% lower than the claimed performance.
The actual noise output is 3.9 dBA higher than the claimed.

Advertised Vs. Real Performance - Mid Speed:
  • Max Speed (RPM): 2000 / 2029
  • Max Input Current (A): 0.13 / 0.155
  • Max Power (W): 1.58 / 1.86
  • Qmax (CFM): 67 / 68.54
  • Pmax (mmAq): 3.30 / 2.80
  • Max Noise Level (dBA): 27.3 / 32.1

The claimed airflow is 2.3% higher than the claimed performance.
The claimed static pressure is 15.15% lower than the claimed performance.
The actual noise output is 4.8 dBA higher than the claimed.

Advertised Vs. Real Performance - Low Speed:
  • Max Speed (RPM): 1200 / 1230
  • Max Input Current (A): 0.05 / 0.06
  • Max Power (W): 0.55 / 0.74
  • Qmax (CFM): 39.1 / 39.14
  • Pmax (mmAq): 1.27/ 1.05
  • Max Noise Level (dBA): 11.1 / 16.2

The claimed airflow is 0.1% higher than the claimed performance.
The claimed static pressure is 17.32% lower than the claimed performance.
The actual noise output is 5.1 dBA higher than the claimed.

 

[NOTE] I follow the specific guidelines (ISO7779: 2018) for taking noise measurements in information technology and telecommunications equipment strictly.
