XPG HURRICANE MAG 120 ARGB 120mm Fan Review – Normal & Reverse Operation

Normalized Noise Tests

For these tests, I set the fan to speeds with noise output at the following predefined levels: 20/25/30/35/40/45 dBA. I skip the corresponding tests if the fan under the test cannot reach some noise levels. The speeds shown in the graph below are measured with the fan in a clear space inside my hemi-anechoic chamber without any obstacles. I set these speeds on the Longwin machine, but they slightly change due to the variable conditions applied by the device.

In reverse, the fan is notably noisier, so it extends to more normalized noise levels.

20 dBA Noise Output

Normal Operation Reverse Operation
Mid speed Low speed
Low airflow Low airflow
Low static pressure Low static pressure
High power consumption Low power consumption

25 dBA Noise Output

Normal Operation Reverse Operation
Mid speed Low speed
Low airflow Low airflow
Mid static pressure Low static pressure
High power consumption Low power consumption

30 dBA Noise Output

Normal Operation Reverse Operation
Mid speed Low speed
Low airflow Low airflow
Low to mid static pressure Low static pressure
Increased power consumption Low power consumption

35 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • Low airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • Low power consumption

40 dBA Noise Output

  • Low speed
  • Low airflow
  • Low static pressure
  • Low power consumption
