SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored Thermaltake CT140 EX ARGB Sync PC Cooling Fan 3 Pack using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the motherboards category. Thermaltake's motherboards lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.

Common buyer scenarios for motherboards of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase.

Key Features

  • 【MagForce 2.0】 Improving on our original MagForce design we have retained all the same great features like fan to fan magnetic connections and magnetic daisy chain cables to make linking multiple fans together easy. However, this time around we drastically increased the surface area of the pin to pad contacts allowing for much better connection and preventing issues like signal drop out from misalignment.
  • 【Complete Your Build】 Our CT line up was designed to perform and compliment the look of existing case fans for a full matching experience.
  • 【Optimal Airflow】 Our CT lineup utilizes 9 optimized fan blades to deliver up to 90.3 CFM of airflow and 3.07mm-H20 of static pressure at 1800 RPMs.
  • 【ARGB Synced】 Powered by a 3-Pin 5V ARGB Connector for simple set up, each fan has 9 LEDs capable of 16.8 million colors easily customized and controlled via motherboard software.
  • 【Hydraulic Bearing】 Great for silent and reliable operation while still being able to provide performance when necessary the CT hydraulic bearings were a great pairing allowing them to reach up to 2000 RPMs and maintaining a high life expectancy.
