Description
The ADATA XPG HURRICANE 140 ARGB PWM is a high-performance 140mm cooling solution designed to balance extreme thermal management with sophisticated aesthetics. Featuring a dual-ring ARGB layout, this fan provides vibrant lighting visible from both sides of the chassis. The core of its performance lies in the patented dual-layer fan blade design, which optimizes airflow and static pressure while minimizing air resistance. With a maximum airflow of 91 CFM and a static pressure of 2.2mm H2O, it is engineered to handle the heat loads of modern high-end gaming rigs and workstations.

Operating the XPG HURRICANE 140 is a seamless experience thanks to its 4-pin PWM control, allowing the system to dynamically adjust speeds between 700 and 1,800 RPM based on thermal demand. The inclusion of Fluid Dynamic Bearings ensures the internal components remain lubricated, significantly reducing friction and mechanical noise compared to standard sleeve bearings. Installation is simplified by the daisy-chain headers, which allow multiple fans to be powered and controlled via a single motherboard header, ensuring a clean interior look without sacrificing performance.
Compared to standard 120mm fans, the HURRICANE 140 provides significantly higher airflow at lower RPMs, resulting in a superior noise-to-performance ratio. While many ARGB fans focus solely on lighting, the HURRICANE series integrates a patented dual-layer blade design that specifically addresses the turbulence issues found in high-static pressure environments. This makes it more effective for use as an intake fan in restricted cases or as a radiator fan compared to generic case fans that lack specialized blade geometry.
- How do I control the ARGB lighting on the XPG HURRICANE 140?
The fan uses a standard 3-pin ARGB connector compatible with most major motherboard lighting software, including ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, and Gigabyte RGB Fusion.
- Can I connect multiple fans to a single motherboard header?
Yes, the HURRICANE 140 features built-in daisy-chain connectors for both the PWM power and the ARGB lighting, allowing for easy serial connection.
- What is the benefit of the Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB)?
FDB technology provides a smoother rotation, which reduces noise and extends the lifespan of the fan to approximately 230,000 hours of operation.
- Is this fan suitable for water cooling radiators?
With a static pressure of 2.2mm H2O, the HURRICANE 140 is highly effective at pushing air through the dense fins of 140mm or 280mm liquid cooling radiators.
- Does the fan include anti-vibration measures?
Yes, the fan is equipped with rubber pads on all four corners to dampen vibrations and prevent resonance noise between the fan and the PC case.
