Thermaltake Riing Quad Radiator Fans with 4 Independent Lighting Zones Start Selling

Thermaltake today released to market the Riing Quad line of fans optimized for liquid-cooling radiator applications (high static pressure). The Riing Quad series was announced at this year's CES. The 120 mm triple-pack is priced at $177.72, and the 140 mm triple-pack at $160. Available in 120 mm and 140 mm sizes, these fans are characterized by four independent ARGB LED lighting zones (rings) adding up to a staggering 54 diodes per fan. The impeller hub has two of these zones, one at the outer hub cap and one along the periphery of the hub); while the frame has the other two zones, one along the bore of the frame, and the other along its periphery, pointing outward.

Besides this, the fans offer 40,000-hour hydraulic bearings, 9-blade impellers designed for high static pressure, and rubberized frame-mounts. The 140 mm variant spins between 500 to 1,400 RPM, pushing up to 60.17 CFM of air, at up to 26.1 dBA of noise. The 120 mm variant does 500 to 1,500 RPM, pushing up to 40.9 CFM of air, at up to 25 dBA of noise. Each of the fans in the pack takes in a 9-pin USB header connection to an included controller module. A single cable provides both power for the main function, and software control over speeds and lighting. The controller module is essentially a powered USB 2.0 hub that interfaces with one of your motherboard's USB 2.0 headers, and takes in additional power through a SATA power input. Thermaltake's TT RGB Plus app handles things on the software side.

If you were trying to fill a Lian Li 011D-XL with these fans it would set you back, $534 US + tax. :eek::eek:

Those 3d glasses had red and blue lenses, not red and green.....


Anyway... Yeah, these fans are cool, the Neon Maker Software for them is even better as it allows you to control the LEDs and create animations using a time line (like editing a video) which I think Is brilliant and should be implemented in all RGB control software. The only problem is, I'd have to put nine of these in my PC-O11 Dynamic and I cannot justify spending more on nine fans than on my videocard (sapphire 5700xt nitro+) or my cpu (2700x) just to decorate a PC that no one sees anyway.

I just did my new build this past November and while I was ordering parts I was planning on sleeved cables and all the garnishment, and then it occurred to me.... What is the point on spending a substantial amount of money making my PC pretty when nobody actually sees it.... It's not like I have tours going through my house, and I'm not the type that posts pictures of my toys on Instagram to feel better about myself.

It's weird, before I built my PC in November I hadn't had a nice desktop in years. I remember I used to go on Newegg and pick out parts constantly, plan my build, etc... Then once I built my PC, I found I never go to Newegg anymore, I never covet hardware I can't afford anymore... It's funny how when you want something, you really want it, but once you have it, the allure goes away quickly.

Anyway, I realized.. What's the point of decking out a PC that for 99.99% of its existence only you will see?

seriously.....

$55-60 a pop for each fan....

And please don't say that price is because it includes a controller, which we all know is worth ~$6 of parts, if that much........

They're down to $40 now :D

These are well worth it - maybe they will be on sale soon, $50 each for 3/w controller or $40 single.
I know that is high end and it will take 12 to put into 1 T.T. Core P7, but if you're going to go for it, you might as well go for it!
(And you really need to buy the 3 packs because you need the controllers to link up and they use proprietary connection, I believe).
