DeepCool FL12 SE Fan 120mm Addressable RGB

DeepCool FL12 SE is a 120 mm case fan with addressable RGB, aimed at budget and mid-range gaming and workstation configurations, where you seek a balance between airflow, noise, and aesthetics. The size of 120 x 120 x 25 mm is standard, so it will fit in most modern cases. At up to 1900 RPM, the fan provides a stable airflow, and the hydro bearing gives better durability compared to the cheapest sleeve solutions. The addressable RGB lighting with a 3 pin ADD-RGB 5V connector allows you to connect it to standard ARGB headers and customize the effects as you wish.

What you get

With an airflow of up to 50.74 CFM (or 86.21 m3/h), the FL12 SE is a good choice for both intake and exhaust fan in the case, especially if you want to improve the temperature of the CPU and GPU without changing the entire airflow layout. The maximum static pressure of 2.04 mmAq helps the air pass through denser mesh panels or dust filters, instead of just spinning air in front of it. The noise level of up to 28.67 dBA is reasonable for a 1900 RPM fan – in a closed case, you will hear it, but it won't be annoying, especially if you use a fan curve from the BIOS or software. The consumption of just 1.2 W at 0.1 A on 12 V is light for any fan headers and hubs, which is convenient if you plan to have more fans in the system.

• Standard size of 120 x 120 x 25 mm, making the FL12 SE compatible with the vast majority of PC cases and radiators that accept 120 mm fans.
• Speeds up to 1900 RPM, providing a solid balance between cooling capability and the ability to run at lower speeds through a fan curve when the system is idle.
• Airflow of 50.74 CFM / 86.21 m3/h, suitable for improving the overall airflow of the case and maintaining lower temperatures under load.
• Maximum static pressure of 2.04 mmAq, which helps the air pass through dust filters and denser panels, instead of losing efficiency.
• Noise level of up to 28.67 dBA, which for a 120 mm fan at 1900 RPM is reasonable and easily controlled with PWM profiles according to the load.
• Hydro bearing for better lifespan and smoother operation compared to basic sleeve bearings, especially during long daily use.
• Addressable RGB lighting with a 3 pin ADD-RGB 5V connector, giving you precise control over colors and effects through the motherboard or controller.
• Eight anti-vibration pads in each corner, which reduce the transmission of vibrations to the case and help create a quieter system.
• Low consumption of 1.2 W / 0.1 A / 12 V, so it can be easily combined with more fans on a single hub without overloading the headers.
• Color black, which easily fits into both clean and RGB-heavy builds without visually dominating.
• 36 months warranty from DeepCool, which is solid assurance for a component that runs almost non-stop.

Who it is suitable for

The FL12 SE is suitable if you are looking for a 120 mm case fan with addressable RGB that provides good airflow for a gaming or workstation machine without entering the high-end price range. It is suitable for cases with filters and front mesh panels, where it combines flow and pressure. If you are aiming for an absolutely silent system at high speeds or extreme static pressure for very dense radiators, there may be more suitable specialized models.

The most sensible aspect of this fan is the combination of standard 120 mm format, decent airflow and pressure, ARGB support, and anti-vibration pads, gathered in a balanced, practical choice for modern PC builds.
