Packaging and Accessories

EK sent over three individual units of the EK-Loop Fan FPT 120 D-RGB fans as seen above. At the time of this review, these are available in black or white colors and I have the former here as depicted by the render on the front of the product box. The company logo and product name are also seen here in addition to the rated RPM range, with EK going for a white and orange color scheme on the packaging. On the back is a marketing blurb as well as fan specs and a QR code that leads you to a downloadable user manual—the file does not appear to be available to view online. Seals on the top and bottom help keep the contents in place on their way to you and opening either one helps extract the inner box as seen above.


The inner box is a thick cardboard container with the fan seen right away and the attached cable along with other accessories are seen in a folded compartment below, including a set of four metal self-tapping screws inside a plastic zip-lock bag. There is also a 50 cm long extender cable making use of the EK-OmniLink connector system. We see an 8-pin microfit male connector on one end and two standard connectors on the other—a 4-pin PWM connector for the fan motor and a 3-pin 5 VDC connector for the fan LEDs. This allows for the EK-Loop Fan FPT 120 D-RGB to be easily powered and controlled by your motherboard without needing any proprietary controller/software.
