Supplied with A40 Ultimate we have a trio of cooling fans. There are two 120mm QF120 fans which are capable of up to 2200RPM and which use an 11-blade design. We also have a single 70mm airflow fan which is capable of up to 3000RPM, uses a 7-blade design and which clips onto the top section of the pump to direct cooling over the socket area.

All fans use black sleeving – the two 120mm fans benefit from some soft braiding to carry through the consistent black design.

Over the page we’ll explore the radiator and pump combo.
