where are the other two 12cm Fan Wire Clips

I had two 12cm fans on my old Noctua NH-U12F CPU Cooler which came with four Wire Clips and I've read reviews on the Ultra 120 extreme with dual fans so I thought it would come with more clips...but no...do I buy them on there own somewhere?

Cheers

Thermalright does not include clips for 2 fans with ultra 120, just for one.

Sigh...googled Ultra 120 Fan wire clips and cant find anywhere that sells them! whats all that about?

Just found the same thing with my new TRU 120 Extreme - even with more fan clips you wouldnt be able to fit them on anyway? (The holes are already occupied by the first fan clips). might just see if I can cable tie a second fan on or something

Give them an email, they might send you some

Thermalright website says they are $2 for a pair lol! but no where sells them wtf

You could try using an elastic band to hold the 2nd fan in place until you get your wire clips.

Is a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme with 1 120mm fan not enough

gEd · 1 Sep 2007 at 21:08

i saw a picture somewhere where they used one clip per fan. as already stated, another pair won;t help you as there is nowhere to install them.

There is a 1-2c gain by adding another fan if you wish to do so try usin tie wraps...from fan to fan.

Had fairly better results with 2 Nexus orange at 7v on my 120 Ultra (not extreme), @ load and single fan at 12v my E6600 @ 3.6Ghz 1.375v hit 67C max in TAT on a warm day, with the two @ 7v it hit 64C tops and was significantly quieter, could be the case used though which was a Antec P180. Used a rubberband btw

Yeah they will, it goes in the hole/perforation down the middle just under the original.

Is that the brackets you got, mine are different.

May be revision, original were dodgy, USA peeps had to stick cardboard or coins in centre to get a tight mount, some came with nylon washer some did not.

Those look much like the clips that came with my U120-E and don't clip firmly into the fan at all.

Send me an e-mail to my trust address and I should be able to help you out.

kkthxbye · 2 Sep 2007 at 13:20

WJA96 email sent.

I have two Noctua NF-S12 1200RPM 120mm from my old Noctua so I really like to use both fans rather then just wasting one sat in my draw.

Cheers guys!

If you find somewhere you can get fan clips from let me know please

I'm in the same situation as you, 2 Noctua NF-S12 1200RPM 120mm's from my old Noctua
