Description
The ADATA XPG HURRICANE 120 ARGB PWM is a precision-engineered 120mm cooling fan designed to meet the rigorous thermal demands of high-end gaming PCs and workstations. Utilizing a Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB), this fan offers a superior balance of high-static pressure and low-noise operation, reaching speeds up to 2000 RPM. The dual-ring ARGB lighting ensures that your system remains visually striking from any angle, while the 4-pin PWM control allows for dynamic speed adjustments based on real-time system temperatures.
This product is for:
- PC enthusiasts looking for a high-performance 120mm fan with customizable dual-ring ARGB lighting.
- System builders who prioritize clean cable management through integrated daisy-chain functionality.
- Gamers requiring high-static pressure fans for efficient cooling through radiators or restrictive mesh cases.
- Users seeking long-term reliability with a Fluid Dynamic Bearing rated for 230,000 hours.
- Silent PC builders who need a fan capable of operating at a low 18.17 dBA average noise level.

Installing the XPG HURRICANE 120 significantly improves the thermal overhead of any chassis. The PWM range of 600 to 2000 RPM provides the flexibility to run a near-silent system during idle tasks while delivering 61.5 CFM of airflow during intensive gaming sessions. The daisy-chain design is a standout feature, allowing users to link multiple fans together, which reduces the number of headers required on the motherboard and simplifies the overall cable routing process for a professional-looking build.
Compared to standard sleeve bearing fans, the XPG HURRICANE 120’s Fluid Dynamic Bearing offers significantly reduced friction and mechanical noise, leading to a much longer lifespan of 230,000 hours. While many aesthetic-focused fans sacrifice performance for lighting, the HURRICANE maintains a high static pressure of 1.42 mm H2O, making it more effective for liquid cooling radiators than typical entry-level RGB case fans that often struggle with air resistance.
Q&A:
- Is the XPG HURRICANE 120 compatible with my motherboard's RGB software? Yes, it supports major ARGB sync technologies including ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, and ASRock Polychrome.
- Can I connect multiple fans to a single header? Yes, the fan includes built-in daisy-chain connectors for both PWM and ARGB, allowing you to link multiple units together easily.
- Is this fan suitable for use on a CPU radiator? Absolutely; with a static pressure of 1.42 mm H2O, it is designed to push air effectively through the dense fins of radiators and heatsinks.
- What are the benefits of Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) technology? FDB uses a layer of high-pressure oil to prevent metal-on-metal contact, resulting in quieter operation and a significantly longer lifespan than traditional ball or sleeve bearings.
- What is the minimum speed of the fan? The fan can operate as low as 600 RPM via PWM control, making it ideal for silent operation during low-load tasks.
