ADATA Enters MoU with Nidec Corporation, Upcoming XPG Coolers to Include Gentle Typhoons

ADATA's gaming-focused brand, XPG, today announced that it entered a memorandum of understanding with Nidec Servo, to source the company's Gentle Typhoon series fans that are popular among PC enthusiasts. The company mentioned that its XPG Vento Pro 120 fan that it launched in November 2020, is based on the Gentle Typhoon's original design. The company also announced that Nidec fans will be included with several of the company's upcoming liquid- and air-based cooling products under development. The Vento Pro 120 is designed for high static pressure of 3.15 mm H₂O and up to 75 CFM of airflow, making it optimal for ventilating radiators.

"Nidec Servo is excited to be furthering its partnership with XPG to bring cutting-edge cooling technology to even more gamers and PC enthusiasts around the world," said Masayuki Mohri, President & CEO at Nidec Servo. "We look forward to strengthening our collaboration and combining our respective competencies in gaming products and motor and fan design, as we have done with the VENTO PRO 120 PWM, to deliver gaming products with exceptional cooling capabilities." "Nidec Servo Gentle Typhoon fans are well known in the industry and beloved by gamers and others for their outstanding cooling performance," said Alex Yin, Chief Gaming Officer & General Manager at XPG. "For us at XPG, our partnership with Nidec Servo is a continuation of our commitment to helping users up their game with products that perform at the highest levels."

SN2716057Just curious, which version did you have?
I only have the GT15's (1850rpm 3-pin)
Nidec-branded 1850rpm 4-pin, no idea if they have a more specific model number than that. Reasonably new, bought them in early 2017, stopped using them in ... 2019? Something like that.

@GorbazTheDragon I currently have 11 GT15's so if I gonna replace them with Noctua's I probably need to take out a small loan. But you're right about quality, in another build I only have A12x25's FLX.
As for maintenance, I've never lubed any of my fans including my ..checks data.. 2011 (edit: year not amount) GT15's.

@Valantar I have a certain hatred for PWM fans as they have a tendency to make weird ticking, or as you guys already wrote, grinding noises.

I've run them off straight DC and had the exact same issue with mine, so I can confirm it's bearing-related, and has nothing to do with the PWM, sadly.

Wow...return of Nidec after what....7-8 years. I am certainly looking forward to this. My 6 special edition "00" Gt's are still in service after all these years.

niubenshan‎Why you can buy "Gentle Typhoon" fans with the Scythe logo in China. What is the relationship between Scythe and Niedc Servo?‎
‎That's a thing of the past, not now‎

Finally, this is what I was looking forwarded to.
BlaylockThere are in every case XPG makes. I'm looking at a pair of them right now. They make them with ARGB LEDs too if that is your thing.
