Short Description
The EK-Vardar X3M 120ER D-RGB is a high-static pressure computer cooling fan with added aestheticalinterchangeable rubber dampers. Developed in-house and first introduced in 2014, the EK-Vardar fan is nowalso available as the X3M 120ER model with addressable D-RGB LEDs. The rubber details on the corners ofthe fan are also there to reduce vibration and noise. These rubber dampers come pre-installed for use inpush orientation but can be removed and mounted the other way around, for a pull flow orientation. Tofurther make the sound profile more pleasant, airflow optimizations were made to the rotor as well. Underthe motor hub, there is a total of addressable D-RGB 9 LEDs ensuring perfect light diffusion at broad daylightas well.

As with the previous Vardar fans, the X3M lineup also packs the Extended Range (ER) of the PWM operationfeature and the special Start-Stop function which brings a true 0dB experience for the absolute noiselessenvironment. The perfectly balanced 7 fan blade design is optimized for high-static pressure operation whilemaintaining the low noise profile throughout the whole operation range of the fan.
EK-Vardar X3M rubber dampers can be purchased separately in various color options to match your build.The available color options are: red, blue, yellow, orange, green, and purple.
The X3M fans are set to push mode out of the box, but the dampers can be easily detached by using a 3mmAllen key and flipped, thus setting the fan in a pull setup. Supplied with the fan are also four UNC 6-32 10mmlong screws which are used to attach the fans to radiators if desired. Additional four thumb nut screws are

also delivered which are used to mount the X3M fans into PC cases.
The perfectly balanced 7 fan blade design is optimized for light dispersion and high-pressure operation whilemaintaining the low noise profile throughout the whole operation range of the fan. This addressable D-RGBversion uses a milky white rotor that does a great job of diffusing the light and provides great dispersion of all9 LEDs located in the fan motor hub.
The addressable D-RGB LEDs use standard 3-pin 5V D-RGB connectors. Meaning it can be used with anystandard 3-pin 5V D-RGB controller, EK-Connect, or any of popular RGB sync technologies from all majormotherboard manufacturers. The arrow marking on the 3-pin LED connector is to be aligned with the +5Vmarking on the D-RGB (A_RGB) header.
The Vardar family of cooling fans carries the notorious name of a type of the cold northwesterly wind blowingfrom the mountains down to the valleys of Macedonia. It is a type of ravine wind, enhanced by a channelingeffect while blowing down through the Moravia-Vardar gap, bringing cold conditions from the north tothe Thessaloniki area of Greece. Most frequent during winter, it is blowing in the rear of a depression whenatmospheric pressure over eastern Europe is higher than over the Aegean Sea.
Features
High-static pressure / low noise profile – unlike other general-purpose computer cooling fans, the EK-Vardar X3M 120ER fan is built for high-powered PC systems. The Vardar’s design is also suitable forrestrictive cases with dust filters.High-quality motor and bearing assembly - New electrical design, actively cooled motor windings andthe Dual-Ball bearing with 50.000 hours of lifespan (MTBF) ensures uninterrupted operation for yearsto come. Precise Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for fan speed adjustment allows performance ondemand.Standard D-RGB connection - The Vardar X3M 120ER D-RGB features a standard 3-pin 5V D-RGBconnection that is compatible with any popular RGB sync technology from major motherboardmanufacturers.0db regime - The Vardar X3M 120ER has a 0db mode where the fan turns off when the PWM curve isset below 25%.Colored Dampers - Interchangeable rubber dampers in multiple color options to boost aesthetics andto reduce vibration transfer.
