With one fan you add 0,3A/3,6w extra powerconsumption to the system. 6 fans adds 21,6w. Nothing to worry about.

Hi! I just bought a new AcipHex power supply. The seasonic SGX 650. Yesterday I installed 3 Corsair QL120 fans. I am planning on installing three more. When I booted up Minecraft, the fan on the power supply went on for the first time. The fan has a passive mode. When the power supply is under a certain load, the fan won’t turn on. I just want to make sure that by installing six high power fans that the power supply will still function without any interruptions.

 

the rest of my system is:

Ryzen 5 3600

Asus LC240 AIO

asus Rog strix b550-a

16gb RAM 3200

256GB nvme

2TB 7200RPM HDD

RTX 3060 Ti

Lian li O11mini Dynamic

6 Corsair QL120 (or 9 as an upgrade in the future)

3 ARCTIC fans

Thank you! I was just worried about the 30- something leds on each fan.
