40 mm 12 V case fan
The SXDOOL ME40101VX-0000-G99 is a 40 mm square frame fan that runs on 12 V DC and draws 1.6 W. It spins above 7000 RPM to move between 5 and 10 CFM of air while keeping noise between 5 and 10 dBA. This size suits tight chassis vents or small-form-factor builds that need targeted airflow.
Simple three-pin mounting
The fan connects through a standard three-pin header on the motherboard or a fan controller. Because the connector lacks a fourth PWM wire, speed is regulated by voltage rather than a duty cycle signal. Installers should verify that the header can supply 12 V at the rated current and that the cable reaches without strain.
Check clearance and header type
Measure the mounting holes to confirm a 40 mm by 40 mm pattern with 10 mm thickness fits the intended location. Ensure the motherboard or controller provides a three-pin socket; a four-pin PWM header will work mechanically but will not enable PWM control. Verify the 12 V rail can deliver the required power for stable operation.

Questions about this item
How can I confirm the ME40101VX-0000-G99 is spinning at the rated 8500 RPM after installation?
Connect the 3-pin header to the motherboard, then check the fan-speed reading in BIOS or a hardware-monitoring utility; it should report roughly 8500 RPM.
What comes in the box with the ME40101VX-0000-G99 and is a mounting kit included?
The package contains the 40 mm fan with its attached 3-pin cable; screws or other mounting hardware are not included and must be sourced separately.
Which version of the 4010 fan should I choose if I need the 12 V, 1.6 W model with a 3-pin connector?
Select the ME40101VX-0000-G99; it is the 12 V, 1.6 W, 3-pin variant rated at 8500 RPM and 9.9 CFM.
