Phanteks Intros Polar ST Series CPU Coolers

Phanteks today launched the Polar ST line of air-type CPU coolers. These include the Polar ST4 (chrome) and the Polar ST5 (black). The aluminium fin-stack tower type fan-heatsinks. The Polar ST4 features four nickel plated copper heat pipes, and is rated for a maximum thermal load of 235 W, while the Polar ST5 has a more upmarket appearance with its black powder coating, and a die-cast metal top plate. The Polar ST5 has five nickel-plated copper heat pipes instead of four, which takes its thermal load value up to 255 W.

Both the Phanteks Polar ST4 and Polar ST5 include a 120 mm fan, specifically the Phanteks M25-120 PWM DRGB. As its name suggests, this is a conventional 25 mm-thick 120 mm fan with PWM control, and addressable RGB lighting control. Its ARGB LEDs are located in the impeller hub. The fan turns between 400 and 2,000 RPM, pushing up to 84.26 CFM of airflow, at up to 2.67 mm H₂O static pressure, and a maximum noise output of 35.7 dBA. Phanteks is including a thermal paste with 4.3 W/m-k thermal conductivity. Among the CPU socket types supported are LGA1851, LGA1700, LGA1200, AM5, and AM4. The company didn't reveal pricing.

Phanteks Puts Out First Response to Patent Infringement Lawsuit by Lian Li

Phanteks put out its first statement in response to reports about Lian Li filing a patent infringement lawsuit against it. Lian Li alleges that Phanteks D30 RGB line of compound fans for radiators infringe upon a design patent held by the company, and that Lian Li Uni Fan series implement the original design defined in the patent. In particular, the controversy is around the design of the mechanism that lets you daisy-chain individual fans without cables. In its defense, Phanteks says that during the development of the D30 RGB series, its lawyers were duly consulted to look for IP conflicts. The company stated that it will face the legal challenge and is confident to prove that its product is not in infringement of Lian Li IP. The statement by Phanteks follows.
We at Phanteks can confirm the filing of the patent infringement suit filed by a fellow PC enthusiast brand. We want to inform the community that our legal team is and has always properly handled any legal issue or communication that has arose.

From the start of the Phanteks D30 fan development, we set out to design an original product that innovates to provide new solutions to PC enthusiasts. We have consulted with patent lawyers during the development and prior to the announcement of the D30 fans and the fans were not found to infringe on the claims in the patent. Phanteks D30 fans are an original idea and have been issued patents in multiple countries to date.

We value and respect valid and enforceable IP rights and are confident that the result of this legal matter will confirm there is no infringement. We will continue our mission to serve the PC community by creating unique and innovative solutions.

Lian Li Sues Phanteks Over Fan Design Patent

Lian Li Industries has filed a legal case against Phanteks Europe/Axpertec Inc. at the US District Court (Central District of California)—they allege in their patent suit that the Phanteks D30 RGB cooling fan series infringes on a June 2020 registered design (US patent 10,690,336 B1). Notice was initially sent out back in May of this year, but Phanteks appears to have ignored those early warning signs and continued to market and sell its D30 RGB products. Lian Li believes that Phanteks has copied their simple and compact connection method of daisy chaining RGB fans—as featured on the UNI FAN lineup. The P28 120 mm model was semi-recently awarded with a highly recommended verdict.

TechPowerUp reviewers have not had the chance to have a poke around with any Phanteks daisy-chainable D30 RGB fans, but a quick comparative glance between relevant product pages reveals a little bit of "inspired-by." The September 8 filing has Lian Li seeking damages to date—upon a successful outcome (in their favor). Additionally Phanteks will be required to pay a license fee if it decides to keep its D30 series alive post-case conclusion. Corsair and Thermaltake have also produced fan products with daisy-chaining connectivity—iCUE Link and SWAFAN EX respectively—could these manufacturers be targeted in the near future?

At the 2023 Computex, Phanteks unveiled a handful of new cooling solutions. The D30-140 is a star attraction. This 140 mm fan features a cable-free daisy-chaining system that uses a click-and-lock mechanism and contact points, to connect up to three of these fans, sharing a PWM fan connection, and addressable RGB signal. This makes the fans very convenient to deploy on radiators, or rows of fan-mounts in cases, such as the front intakes. The fans are based on the same impeller design and motor architecture as the T30-series that the company debuted in March 2023. It features the same "Halos" lighting effect. Phanteks plans to launch the D30-140 in August 2023, priced at $30 a piece, or $85 for a set of 3.

These are practically identical in design and specs to the Glacier One T30 series from March, but replace the T30-series fans that have individual cables, with the newer D30-series ones that have cable-free daisy-chaining that looks a lot cleaner when installed. What's new is the 420 mm (420 mm x 140 mm radiator size) variant that's exclusive to the Glacier One D30-series. When it goes on sale this August, the Glacier One 240-D30 will be priced at $150, and the 360-D30 at $180. The company hasn't finalized pricing of the 420-D30, yet.
