Review: Stunning Color, Easy Installation, and Plenty of Compliments! - I couldn't be happier with the Thermaltake SWAFAN EX 14 ARGB fans. From the moment I installed them, they have been an absolute standout addition to my build — and everyone who has seen my setup has had nothing but compliments about how good they look. The white colorway is crisp and clean, and the ARGB lighting takes it to another level entirely. Inside my case, the colors pop beautifully and really tie the whole build together. Whether cycling through colors or locked onto a specific theme, these fans look fantastic and add that premium aesthetic that really makes a build stand out. What really surprised me though was how straightforward the wiring process was. I was a little nervous going in, expecting the usual cable management headache that comes with RGB fans, but the SWAFAN EX 14 made it so much easier than I anticipated. Everything was well organized and the connectors were intuitive, which made the whole installation process smooth and stress-free. On top of the looks, the fans run quietly and perform well across the 500~2000 RPM range, giving me solid cooling without any distracting noise. If you're looking for PC fans that deliver on aesthetics, ease of installation, and reliable performance, the Thermaltake SWAFAN EX 14 ARGB in white is an excellent choice. Highly recommended — my build has never looked better! Review: GREAT Fans with a minor installation issue. - I bought these fans (2 sets of 3) because they have the extra set of reversable blades, which I wanted for a show-piece build. The supporting frame of the fans won't show when using them for intake fans, when you change to the reverse blades. Bottom Line I highly recommend them if you are controlling your fans from the motherboard's PWM and ARGB, and not using the "controller" others' have complained about. I have nothing bad to say about the controller, it is just that I did not need it for my build, since my Z690H motherboard controls and syncs PWM and ARGB for all fans. The fans are well built and solid; they light beautifully and run smoothly; and they are quiet at low to medium speeds. At full speed (my testing) they can be heard, but I cannot imaging needing to ever run them that fast. I also like that the fans swap easily - without tools - between forward and reverse blades. Also, the fans connect to each other magnetically, as well as the cables connecting magnetically. Now to the only minor installation issue. Some others have alluded to it also. If you do not get the magnetic cable connector aligned perfectly to the fan, the pogo pins on the fan don't connect to all the tiny disks on the cable, opposite each pin. My first install, the fans were Dead - no spinning or lights. So, I needed to "wiggle" the connector around to get it aligned. It took me about six tries on one fan, to get the alignment correct, because the magnets are so strong they tend to pull the parts together quicker than the alignment can occur. This is NOT a reason to avoid these fans, I see the strong magnets as a good thing because once you get the alignment correct it isn't going to move. I also had the same mis-alignment with the magnets coupling the 3rd fan to the 2nd, until I simply "wiggled" them to align perfectly. THERMALTAKE should take note, and do a little redesign work so the magnetic connectors work more precisely, else they may get some complaints and returns, from unaware buyers, that the fans just don't work. Bottom line is, I really like these fans and the are my new 1st choice for reverse blade fans.

First, confirm your USB 2.0 header cable is plugged in, if it is, confirm that both the cable and the header is fully functional. If not, attempt to use a standard MicroUSB to Type-A USB and connect it through a regular USB port and see if the controller is detected. If all else fails, contact Thermaltake Support for further troubleshooting. **Q: Is the hub 4 pin? I need it to be compatible with asus x570 board.** A: If I remember correctly....the fans use a proprietary connector to connect to the hub. The hub is powered by Molex and connects to the motherboard via USB 2.0. If you plan on using an AIO in this build, you would want to make sure the mobo has at least 2 USB connectors. If not, you would also need a usb 2.0 hub. I believe the one I use is made by NZXT. **Q: I have 9 fans and 3 controllers and whenever i change the light on controller 1 fan 1 it also changes every single fan 1 on every controller anyone?** A: You probably have your settings copying the master. **Q: is it should be okay, if this fans replace the thermaltake triple riing rgb fans in thermaltake floe AIO 360 liquid cooler ?** A: Yes, the Riing Trio can replace the original fan installed in Floe AIO cooler. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Stunning Color, Easy Installation, and Plenty of Compliments! *by E***T on March 13, 2026* I couldn't be happier with the Thermaltake SWAFAN EX 14 ARGB fans.
