Follow these steps to properly install your Thermalright TL-S12W fan in your computer case or with a CPU cooler.
4.1 Fan Airflow Direction
It is crucial to install the fan according to the desired airflow direction within your PC case. For normal airflow design fans, the blade side typically acts as the intake, and the frame side acts as the exhaust.
Image: The fan's blade side draws air in (intake), while the frame side expels air (exhaust).
4.2 גשמיות ינסטאַלירונג
Mount the fan to your desired location (e.g., case exhaust, intake, or CPU cooler) using the provided screws. Ensure the fan is securely fastened.

4.3 Power and Speed Control Connection (PWM)
The fan uses a 4-pin PWM connector for power and speed control. This allows your motherboard to automatically adjust fan speed based on system temperature.
- Locate the 4-pin PWM fan power connector on the fan cable.
- Connect this 4-pin PWM connector to an available 4-pin fan header on your motherboard (e.g., CHA_FAN, CPU_FAN).
- If installing multiple fans, use the provided PWM sharing connector to daisy-chain additional fans for synchronized speed control. The maximum number of fans that can be connected to a single motherboard fan socket is typically 3 for the TL-S12S series and 4 for the TL-S12 series.

4.4 ARGB Lighting Connection
The fan features ARGB lighting that can be synchronized with your motherboard's lighting effects.
- Identify the 3-pin 5V addressable RGB connector on the fan cable.
- Connect this 3-pin ARGB connector to an available +5V ARGB header on your motherboard (e.g., ADD_GEN2_HEADER, RGB_HEADER). פֿאַרבינדט נישט צו אַ 12V RGB כעדער, ווײַל דאָס וועט שעדיקן די על-אי-די-עס.

5.1 פען גיכקייט קאנטראל (PWM)
The Thermalright TL-S12W fan utilizes a 4-pin PWM connector, allowing your motherboard to precisely control the fan speed. The fan speed will automatically adjust based on the CPU or system temperature, ensuring optimal cooling performance and reduced noise when not under heavy load. You can typically configure fan curves and settings through your motherboard's BIOS/UEFI or dedicated software.
5.2 ARGB לייטינג קאָנטראָל
The fan's ARGB lighting can be controlled and synchronized with other ARGB components in your system via your motherboard's 5V ARGB header. Use your motherboard manufacturer's RGB software (e.g., ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, ASRock Polychrome Sync) to customize lighting effects, colors, and patterns.
