DeepCool CG530 | High-Performance ARGB Case Fan

The DeepCool CG530 Bulk Fan delivers powerful cooling and vibrant lighting in a sleek, modern form. Designed for PC builders seeking strong airflow, low noise, and addressable RGB effects, this 120mm fan combines fluid dynamic bearing technology with PWM speed control for efficient thermal management.

Key Specifications

High-Efficiency Cooling for Demanding Builds

The DeepCool CG530 Bulk Fan uses a high-efficiency blade design to deliver strong airflow and static pressure, making it ideal for both case ventilation and radiator mounting. Its 61.91 CFM airflow rating ensures consistent cooling even under heavy system loads, while the 1.83 mmH₂O static pressure supports high-performance radiator setups.

Quiet Operation with Advanced Bearing Technology

Low noise is achieved through a hydro bearing system paired with rubber anti-vibration pads at all four corners. This combination reduces operational noise to ≤28 dB(A), allowing the fan to run quietly even at higher speeds. The fluid dynamic bearing also extends lifespan and ensures smooth, reliable performance.

Dynamic RGB Lighting with ARGB Compatibility

Addressable RGB LEDs built into the fan frame create vibrant, customisable lighting effects. Controlled via a standard 3-pin 5V ARGB header, the lighting integrates seamlessly with compatible motherboards for synchronised illumination. The daisy-chain cable design simplifies wiring and keeps builds tidy.

Intelligent PWM Speed Control

PWM speed control allows the fan to adjust automatically between 500 and 1800 RPM based on thermal demand. This intelligent response balances cooling performance with noise reduction, ensuring the fan runs only as fast as needed for optimal system temperatures.

• Check case clearance for 120mm fan installation.
• Confirm radiator compatibility if using for liquid cooling setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the DeepCool CG530 Bulk Fan compatible with non-ARGB motherboards?

A: The fan will operate normally, but RGB lighting will not be controllable without an ARGB header or compatible controller.

Q: Can this fan be used on a radiator?

A: Yes, the fan is suitable for radiator mounting thanks to its high static pressure rating.

Q: Does the fan come with a controller for RGB lighting?

A: No, the fan requires connection to a 3-pin 5V ARGB header on a compatible motherboard or an ARGB controller.

Q: What is the expected lifespan of the hydro bearing?

A: Hydro bearings typically offer long service life, but exact lifespan is not specified by the manufacturer.

Q: Is daisy-chaining supported for both fan and RGB cables?

A: Daisy-chaining is supported for RGB lighting via the 3-pin connector; fan power uses standard 4-pin PWM.
