The NZXT F280 RGB Core merges two 140mm fans into a single 280mm frame. This unit pushes 98.61 CFM of air to maintain low component temperatures during heavy loads. Eight addressable LEDs per hub provide lighting control through the NZXT CAM software ecosystem.
Key Features
- Single-frame Design: Two 140mm fans share one 280mm plastic housing. Reduces cable clutter and aligns perfectly on standard radiators.
- Fluid Dynamic Bearings: Low-friction motor rated for 60,000 hours of rotation. Prevents mechanical rattle while maintaining low noise levels.
- 98.61 CFM Airflow: High-volume air displacement through optimized fan blades. Clears hot air from cases quickly during heavy processing.
- Zero RPM Support: Blades stop spinning during low thermal load periods. Eliminates noise and slows down road dust accumulation.
- ARGB Lighting: Eight individually addressable LEDs mounted in each hub. Requires an NZXT controller for full color customization.
- 5-Year Warranty: Long-term manufacturer coverage for motor or bearing failure. Protects the hardware against mechanical defects for half a decade.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does NZXT F280 RGB Core need a controller?
Yes, an NZXT RGB Controller is necessary to manage the lighting. This fan uses a proprietary 4-pin RGB connector.
Is NZXT F280 compatible with any motherboard?
The 4-pin PWM power connector fits any standard motherboard header. Lighting control requires the NZXT CAM software environment.
