Lian Li UNI FAN X120 Reverse Blade (120mm/59.0 CFM/2.1 mmH2O Static Pressure/1900 RPM Max/25.5 dBA/Fluid Dynamic Bearing/ARGB/PWM) Review
The reverse-blade UNI FAN X120 shows up in searches for Lian Li fans that pull air the opposite direction of the standard SL120, useful for balancing airflow direction across a case.
We'd buy it specifically to mix intake and exhaust directions within one UNI FAN daisy-chain, not as a general-purpose replacement for the standard SL120.
Comparison to Alternatives
Against the Lian Li UNI FAN SL120 already in our catalog, the X120's reverse-pitch blades push a similar amount of air but in the opposite rotational direction, letting you mix fan orientation on one controller without extra cabling. Compared with the Corsair iCUE Link RX120, the UNI FAN X120 relies on Lian Li's own controller hub rather than a per-fan cable, which keeps wiring simpler in an all-Lian-Li build.
