What would replace a: PowerSpec AD1225R12L 12v  0.16a  4-pin/rgb 3-pin/power 120mm fan in my g462? The one on the rear is making a lot of noise. I temp fixed it with lube. I bought the g462 on 2/18/2019.

    Hi @Hark Welcome to the community!
    I don't believe we carry the PowerSpec AD1225R12L Fans. They appear to be discontinued. However, we do carry system fans that would be adequate as a replacement.
    I hope this helps, let me know if you have any questions or concerns with these!

    Thank you for the quick reply, I have 3 questions.
    My fan is 3pin power and 4pin rgb going to the fan/rgb controller. Can i buy any fan with 4pin rbg and 4pin-power?
    and higher then 0.16a?
    and different then mine which is 12v voltage?

    Hello @Hark

    Do you think you can send a picture of the Fan/RGB Controller?  I would assume you can fit the 4pin there if it does have 4 pins to it, but would like to confirm.

    I'm looking for the same fan for my PowerSpec Mid Tower case Model # AD1225R12L with 3 Pin Power cable and 4 Pin RGB LED cable. Mine has an annoying ticking sound. Any replacement suggestions?

    Hey there!

    Typically most 120mm fans will fit this case. In regards to one that would fit the bill at a good price, I recommend this one:

    I'm looking for the same fan for my PowerSpec Mid Tower case Model # AD1225R12L with 3 Pin Power cable and 4 Pin RGB LED cable. I returned from my local store with the Cooler Master Sickleflow 120 ARBG Fans based upon the recommendation of the sales staff. I even had my old fan with me to show the connectors. I think these new fans have a 4pin rbg and 4pin-power sized connnectors but I don't have that option in my G461 Powerspec. I included picture of what my current fans where plugged into with the Blue being the power and the Red being the RGB LEB cable. What can I do? I am pretty sure the fans sold with not work.

    You're correct, the ARGB fans will not work. The controller pictured is RGB. RGB is 12V, ARGB is 5V, different pinout as well. I would return those fans and purchase RGB fans. If you're not concerned about the lighting, the Arctic Cooling P12's are excellent and they're $9.

    Thanks to all the posts above. I got my replacement fan Arctic P12 PWM PST RGB and it’s working so far so good. The pan power cable has four pins but it can be installed only using three holes.
