Know before you buy
The reverse rotor design allows the fan to pull air into your case while keeping the clean, aesthetic side of the fan facing outward. This prevents the unsightly fan frame and support struts from being visible when used as an intake.
Yes, the iCUE LINK system requires a compatible iCUE LINK System Hub to manage power and lighting. This hub allows you to daisy-chain multiple fans together with a single cable, significantly reducing cable clutter in your build.
Yes, these fans are designed with a high static pressure of 4.22 mm-H2O, making them an excellent choice for pushing air through the dense fins of a liquid cooling radiator.
The Magnetic Dome bearing uses magnetic levitation to reduce friction and physical wear. This results in quieter operation and a longer lifespan compared to traditional sleeve or ball-bearing fans.
QuikTurn screws are designed for rapid installation and are compatible with most standard fan mounting points. However, they are specifically optimized for the Corsair ecosystem to ensure a secure, tool-friendly fit.
At its maximum speed of 2000 RPM, the fan produces 39 dBA. Because it features PWM control, you can easily set custom fan curves in the iCUE software to keep noise levels lower during light workloads.
