Components manufacturer Corsair has announced a new line of cooling fans for system builders in the channel. The new Air Series line of fans are offered in airflow and static pressure models, each specifically optimized for specific cooling roles.
According to Corsair, the Air Series fans are designed to deliver a balance of airflow and low-noise to “users who want to upgrade their PCs for quieter operation or higher performance.”
“Many PC fans on the market are general purpose designs that not always suited to the task which they’re assigned,” says Ruben Mookerjee, Corsair’s vice president and general manager. “We took our expertise in PC case and cooling and designed fans that have very specific uses. Each fan is the right tool for the right job.”
All Air Series models feature an advanced hydraulic bearing system and rubber mounts for low-noise and reliability. The models include red, white, and blue color rings to enable users to customize the look of a PC.
Air Series AF120 and AF140 airflow fans are designed to intake cool air into (and exhaust hot air out of) modern PCs. They are for ideal for mounting on the side, top, and rear of cases, to reduce component-killing heat. The airflow fans are designed with ultra-thin, custom-molded blades optimized to flow high volumes of air in unrestricted spaces with at least 3cm of clearance. They are available in a 140 mm Quiet edition and in 120 mm Quiet and Performance editions.
Air Series SP120 fans also seven ultra-wide, custom-molded blades and a custom enclosure designed to deliver high static pressure while maintaining a quiet noise profile. †††
Air Series fans are immediately available starting at a suggested retail price of $16.99 for AF120/SP120 fans and $18.99 for AF140 fans.
