Fractal Design

Fractal Design FD-F-DR3-1205 120mm ARGB White Reverse PWM case fan

SKU CH-BPJP-YNQMS MPN FD-F-DR3-1205

A 120 mm reverse-airflow case fan moves 65.38 CFM at 36.2 dB(A) with PWM control from 350 to 2200 RPM and daisy-chainable ARGB Gen 2 lighting

  • Strong airflow up to 65.38 CFM with seven swept reverse blades
  • Quiet running at 36.2 dB(A) across the full speed range
  • Precise PWM control from 350 to 2200 RPM for cooling or silence
  • ARGB Gen 2 lighting with eight LEDs for custom colour effects
  • Rifle bearing rated at 90000 hours MTTF for long-term reliability

Product Identity

The Fractal Design FD-F-DR3-1205 is a 120mm ARGB case fan built for system builders who want reverse airflow orientation and integrated lighting in a single unit. Its white finish and daisy-chainable cable design suit clean, coordinated builds where cable management matters.

Airflow Capacity and Limits

The seven-blade swept reverse design moves up to 65.38 CFM with a maximum static pressure of 2.54 mm H2O while operating at 36.2 dB(A). Speed adjusts via PWM between 350 and 2200 RPM, giving headroom for quiet idle cooling and stronger airflow under load.

Interface and Bearing Constraints

The fan connects through standard PWM and ARGB headers, allowing motherboard control of both speed and Gen 2 lighting effects across eight LEDs. A rifle bearing rated for 90000 hours MTTF supports long-term operation, while the reverse blade orientation limits placement to configurations that specifically require pull-direction airflow.

Questions about this item

Will the 120mm Dynamic 3 reverse fan fit in the same mounting holes as my existing 120mm fans?

Yes, the 120mm frame matches the standard mounting pattern so it installs directly into any 120mm slot you already use.

How do I confirm the ARGB Gen 2 lighting and PWM control are functioning after installation?

Connect the fan to a 4-pin PWM header and a 5V ARGB header, then use your motherboard software to verify the 350-2200 RPM range and lighting effects.

Does the box include the daisy-chain cable for linking multiple fans, or must I buy it separately?

The daisy-chain cable is integrated into each fan, so you can link several units straight from the box without extra parts.
