Corsair release their new ML series fans

Hey guys, some news !

Corsair release their new ML series fans

Corsair has released their new ML series fans which feature replaceable coloured corners and full PWM control. These fans will be available in Red, blue and white LEC versions as well as an all black or a gray and black design. 

Corsair's new ML Pro fans use Magnetic Levitation (ML) technology in order to minimise motor noise and provide both great static pressure and high airflow with a lower noise output, effectively combining their previous AF and SP series fans into a single quieter product. 

These new fans will be PWM controlled to speeds of up to 2,000 RPM, allowing them to deliver high performance and low noise levels. Corsair's ML fans will also be available in 120mm and 140mm models and feature colour coordinated corners for their LED model fans.

 

Quote

The ML-Series uses Magnetic Levitation bearings which dramatically cut down on friction. Translation? They’re quieter across the entire RPM range. So you can crank up the speed without cranking up the noise. 

The replaceable corners for these fans will be available to purchase separately, though the LED versions of these fans will come with matching coloured corners.  

Right now these fans are available to order at select retailers for the price of £18.95 for a single 120mm LED fan and £21.95 for a single LED 140mm fan. Dual packs for the plain non-led 120mm and 140mm fans are available for £21.95 and £24.95 respectively.

 

 

ML = Magnetic Levitation hehe

REQUEST TO LMG/LTT FOR A VIDEO !

Now let's guess if they will be any good at their main purpose of blowing air or suck like the previous ones. 

 

£21 each? yeah no thanks.

[DrM]

hmm.. replacable colored corners, magnetic bearing? sounds like chromax and sso2. sounds oddly similar to the noctua industrial fans already on the market

£21... I could buy 3 10 packs of Beer for the price of a fucking 140mm FAN? 

[themaniac]

so basically they have hover balls in them, why are aliens even bothering with helping companies on earth

[exyia]

It still amuses me how much people will spend on fans (the costs add up like crazy) yet run them at "silent" rpm levels where the pressure is hardly any different from budget competing fans

[oo2k15]

When's the rgb one coming out?

Can we contribute to lowering the balance of USA's debt to China by purchasing enough to fill a decent tower case?

I know, right? I bought 30-pack of Budweiser for 18 bucks... 

 

 Go home Corsair,  you're drunk!!

IKR.  I an appreciate a silent system, mine is barely a whisper at tick over when on forums etc, can't see me spending major bucks to lower that noise a bit more though

I like enough of a hum to let me know it's properly on and working, but I wear headphones almost all the time.

I am going to be getting a Define S soon to transplant all my parts in to it, from a 450D.  Getting rid of an H115i for a NH-D15s, and replacing the Define S fans with four Venturi's.

May put some fans in the front of my NZXT 340 to aid airflow over my R9 390 which is as quiet as it can be.  Only noticeable when in a gaming session.

 

Won't be paying £10+ per fan though, the end of the day all I want it to do is move air, not play the harmonic song of the angels fart while doing so.

[Dabombinable]

Lel, I can already get brushless maglev bearing Gelid fans from a local electronics store for the grand price of.....$27 AUD.

[NumLock21]

Let's see $28 dollars for the 120mm LED one. Corsair 900D can run a total of 16 120mm fans

$28 x 16 = $448!

Some can built a entire machine with that budget!

 

[PlayStation 2]

Not interested until they make a purple LED one.

[Tech Inquisition]

*Makes a note to add these to the Spartan 1.2 build plan...

Why? BeQuiet can't even remotely compete with the Gentle Typhoon yet.
