Compact 50 mm chassis fan

The StarTech FAN5X1TX3 is a 50 mm square, 10 mm thick case fan designed to add spot cooling inside tight chassis. It suits builders who need a small replacement fan for legacy enclosures or compact industrial PCs. It is not for buyers who need higher airflow for modern high-wattage components or larger mounting holes.

Three-pin TX3 connector limits

The fan terminates in a 3-pin TX3 female connector that plugs directly into compatible motherboard headers or fan controllers. Speed reporting is supported, but voltage control depends on the header capabilities. Builders whose boards only offer 4-pin PWM headers or proprietary fan plugs cannot use this fan without an adapter.

4500 RPM ball-bearing airflow

At 4500 RPM the single ball-bearing impeller delivers 8.63 CFM at a rated 25 dBA. The ball bearing is the deciding specification for continuous operation in orientations where sleeve bearings would wear prematurely. If your thermal target requires substantially more static pressure or lower noise, this model will not meet it.
