Typical Use Case fan — intake or exhaust, designed for PC chassis cooling

The NZXT F280 Black RGB Core Fan  consists of two 140 mm PWM fans housed within a single 280 mm frame, streamlining the installation process when compared to deploying two separate fans individually.

This all-in-one design reduces cable clutter and makes for a cleaner, more compact build layout.

Each fan operates at speeds between 500 and 2,000 RPM (± 200), allowing the system to dynamically modulate fan speed based on temperature or load.

At maximum speed, the NZXT Black Single Frame Desktop Fan deliver up to roughly 98.61 CFM of airflow per fan and a static pressure of 3.2 mm H₂O.

These figures demonstrate that the fan is effective at both pushing fresh air into the case and expelling hot air — a balance that’s especially useful in cases with dust filters, front meshes, or other airflow-resistive structures.

Whether used as an intake or exhaust, the NZXT F280 Black RGB Core Fan handles airflow and static pressure well, making it a strong candidate for tower chassis, high-performance builds, or compact enclosures needing efficient cooling.

Noise control remains a critical factor for many PC users, and the F280 addresses this with fluid–dynamic bearings (FDB) and a design optimized for quiet operation.

The NZXT F280 Black RGB Core Fan is specified to produce a maximum of around 34.5 dBA per fan — relatively low for fans operating near 2,000 RPM.

The fluid dynamic bearing mechanism enhances longevity and rotational stability, contributing to a rated lifespan of approximately 60,000 hours.

This durability makes it suitable for long-term use without frequent maintenance or bearing wear.

Aesthetics are another strong suit.

The NZXT Two Fan RGB Desktop Fan hubs integrate eight addressable RGB LEDs each, illuminating semi-translucent fan blades and offering vibrant lighting effects that can be synced with the rest of the PC’s lighting ecosystem.

For builders who care about the visual impact of their build — especially those with transparent side panels — the F280 brings significant visual appeal without compromising on performance.

The power and control side of things is also well-handled.

The NZXT Single Frame RGB Core Fan uses an 8-pin connector that handles both PWM control and RGB lighting, streamlining plug-in complexity.

Builders can connect to a dedicated controller (sold separately) or use a motherboard’s 5 V ARGB header (with a splitter cable) to control lighting and fan speeds.

The PWM capability ensures that fans run quietly during light loads and ramp up when cooling demand increases — a practical balance between performance and noise.

Physically, the unit occupies a 280 mm × 140 mm × 26 mm space, meaning it fits where chassis fans of 280 mm or dual 140 mm configurations can be mounted.

The integrated dual-fan frame also reduces the number of screws and mounting points compared to two independent fans, which simplifies installation and improves overall build tidiness.

Construction materials are typical — plastic, rubber, and PCBs — but designed with standard fan-building practices to ensure reliability and structural integrity.

The NZXT F280 Black RGB Core Fan stands out as a well-rounded choice for PC builds needing a mix of airflow efficiency, static pressure handling, quiet operation, and RGB aesthetics — all wrapped up in a user-friendly, easy-to-install package.

It is particularly appealing to builders who want a clean, minimalist internal layout without sacrificing cooling performance or lighting flair.
