5. Gid Enstalasyon
Follow these steps to properly install your Thermalright TL-C12B-S V3 X3 ARGB Case Fan. For a visual guide, please refer to the embedded video below.
5.1. Video Installation Guide
Official Thermalright Quick Start Guide for Case Fans. This video demonstrates the connection of PWM and ARGB cables, as well as fan installation.
5.2. Connecting Fan Power (PWM)
- Identify the 4-pin PWM fan power connector on your fan. This connector controls the fan speed.

- If installing multiple fans and wish to sync their speeds, use the provided PWM sharing connector to daisy-chain additional fans. Connect the additional fan's PWM connector to the sharing header.
5.3. Connecting ARGB Lighting
- Locate the 3-pin +5V Addressable RGB (ARGB) connector on your fan. This connector controls the lighting effects.

- Connect the 3-pin ARGB connector to an available +5V ARGB header on your motherboard. Ensure correct pin alignment (do not connect to 12V RGB headers).
- To synchronize ARGB lighting effects across multiple fans, use the provided ARGB sharing connector to daisy-chain additional fans. Connect the additional fan's ARGB connector to the sharing header.
5.4. Enstalasyon Fizik
- Determine the desired airflow direction. For normal airflow design fans, the blade side typically indicates intake, and the frame side indicates exhaust. Install fans according to your PC case's airflow requirements.

- Position the fan in the desired mounting location (e.g., front, top, rear, bottom of the case, or on a CPU cooler/radiator).

Imaj: Egzamples of fan installation for case airflow, air cooling, and water cooling radiators.
- Secure the fan using the included mounting screws or adhesive nails, depending on your case and preference. Ensure the fan is firmly attached to prevent vibration.
- Manage cables neatly to avoid interference with other components and to maintain good airflow within the case.
6. Operasyon Enstriksyon
Once installed, the fan's operation is controlled via your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI settings or dedicated software provided by your motherboard manufacturer.
- Kontwòl vitès fanatik (PWM): Access your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or fan control software to adjust the fan speed curve. This allows you to set fan speeds based on CPU or system temperatures, optimizing for either quiet operation or maximum cooling.
- Kontwòl ekleraj ARGB: Use your motherboard's ARGB control software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to customize lighting effects, colors, and synchronization with other ARGB components.

7. Antretyen
Antretyen regilye asire pèfòmans optimal epi pwolonje lavi fanatik ou an.
- Netwayaj: Periodically clean the fan blades and frame to remove dust buildup. Use compressed air or a soft brush. Ensure the PC is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.
- Portant: The S-FDB bearing is designed for maintenance-free operation. Do not attempt to disassemble the fan for lubrication or repair, as this may void the warranty.
NAN. Depanaj
| Pwoblèm | Kòz posib | Solisyon |
|---|---|---|
| Fanatik pa vire | Incorrect PWM connection, insufficient power, faulty fan header. | Check 4-pin PWM connection to motherboard. Ensure fan header is enabled in BIOS. Test with a different fan header if available. |
| ARGB lights not working | Incorrect ARGB connection, connection to 12V RGB header, software issue. | Verify 3-pin ARGB (+5V) connection to motherboard. Ensure it's not connected to a 4-pin 12V RGB header. Check motherboard ARGB software settings. |
| Twòp bri/Vibration | Loose mounting, fan blades hitting cables, high fan speed. | Ensure fan is securely mounted. Check for cable interference. Adjust fan speed curve in BIOS/software to a lower RPM. |
| Pèfòmans refwadisman pòv | Incorrect airflow direction, dust buildup, insufficient fan speed. | Verify fan is installed with correct airflow direction. Clean fan blades and surrounding area. Increase fan speed in BIOS/software. |
