280 mm RGB fan unit for radiators

The NZXT F280 RGB CORE RF-U28HF-W1 is a 280 mm single-frame unit that integrates two 140 mm fans in a white finish. It targets builders fitting a 280 mm radiator or large intake who want RGB lighting and simplified cabling. The unit connects through an 8-pin cable carrying both PWM and RGB signals to an NZXT controller or motherboard splitter.

Single 8-pin PWM and RGB connector

Operation requires an NZXT RGB & Fan Controller or a compatible NZXT motherboard for full CAM software control; both are sold separately. A splitter cable is included for direct motherboard connection, but digital RGB control depends on the external controller. The 8-pin interface combines power and lighting into one cable, reducing internal clutter.

98.61 CFM per fan at 34.5 dBA

Each fan delivers 98.61 CFM airflow and 3.2 mm H2O static pressure between 500 and 2000 RPM with a 200 RPM tolerance. Fluid dynamic bearings and a zero-RPM mode keep noise at 34.5 dBA per fan under load. The 26 mm thick dual-fan assembly suits high-airflow cooling but occupies a 280 mm mounting footprint, limiting use to cases with matching radiator support.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the white 280 mm dual-fan unit or a different colour for my build?

This model is offered in white with two 280 mm fans, 26 mm thick, each delivering 98.61 CFM and 3.2 mm H₂O static pressure.

What does 98.61 CFM per fan mean for actual case temperatures?

Each fan moves up to 98.61 CFM at 2000 RPM, providing strong airflow through radiators or mesh while staying at 34.5 dBA.

How does the 8-pin PWM and RGB connector work with my motherboard?

The single 8-pin cable carries both PWM speed control and 5 V RGB signal; a 300 mm 4-pin PWM and 100 mm RGB splitter are included for direct motherboard headers.
