Fractal Design Prisma AL-18 180mm ARGB PWM White Fan – High-Airflow Cooling, Addressable RGB, Silent Rifle Bearing- FD-FAN-PRI-AL18-PWM-WT

The Fractal Design FD-FAN-PRI-AL18-PWM-WT Prisma AL-18 180mm ARGB PWM White Fan represents the pinnacle of large-format cooling, blending massive airflow performance with premium aesthetics and whisper-quiet operation. Designed for enthusiasts, gamers, and professionals building high-performance PCs, this fan delivers exceptional cooling capacity, customizable RGB illumination, and long-lasting durability.

Massive 180mm High-Airflow Design

Unlike standard 120mm and 140mm fans, the Prisma AL-18 pushes cooling efficiency further with its oversized 180mm form factor. The larger fan surface allows it to move significantly more air at lower RPM, creating powerful airflow with reduced noise. This makes it ideal for large gaming towers, workstations, and enthusiast builds where heat management is critical.

The fan’s aerodynamic blade design is optimized for both case ventilation and radiator cooling, ensuring efficient thermal regulation across different system configurations.

PWM Control for Adaptive Cooling

Equipped with PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) technology, the Prisma AL-18 offers dynamic speed control. This enables it to scale fan speeds automatically based on system load and temperature. At idle, it can operate nearly silently, while under heavy load, it ramps up airflow to keep components cool. This balance of silence and power makes it an excellent choice for performance-oriented yet quiet builds.

Brilliant ARGB Illumination

The Prisma AL-18 doesn’t just perform—it also enhances your build’s aesthetics. With Addressable RGB (ARGB) LEDs, this fan offers vivid, customizable lighting that can be synchronized with your system. It is compatible with all major RGB control ecosystems, including ASUS Aura Sync, MSI Mystic Light, Gigabyte RGB Fusion, and ASRock Polychrome.

Users can choose from millions of colors and effects, ranging from smooth transitions to reactive lighting patterns, allowing the fan to become a centerpiece of any high-end gaming rig.

Silent & Durable Operation

Fractal integrates rifle bearing technology, ensuring ultra-quiet operation and long-lasting reliability. This bearing type reduces friction while extending the fan’s lifespan. Combined with vibration-dampening rubber pads, the Prisma AL-18 operates smoothly even at higher RPM, minimizing unwanted noise and mechanical resonance.

The larger blade design also means it can achieve the same airflow levels at much lower speeds compared to smaller fans, further reducing noise output.

Premium Build Quality & White Aesthetic

The Prisma AL-18 White Edition is designed with a clean, modern white frame, perfectly suited for light-themed or minimalist builds. Its premium-grade plastic construction ensures rigidity, while the overall design reflects Fractal’s Scandinavian-inspired minimalist aesthetic.

The fan’s clean look makes it a perfect fit for white PC builds, showcase rigs, and RGB-focused setups, offering both elegance and performance.

Versatile Applications

Thanks to its size, performance, and lighting capabilities, the Prisma AL-18 is suitable for a variety of use cases:

• Case Intake or Exhaust: Push massive volumes of air in or out of full-tower enclosures.

• Radiator Cooling: Enhance liquid cooling efficiency with broad airflow coverage.

• Showcase Builds: Use as a centerpiece for stunning RGB lighting and aesthetics.

• Silent Builds: Achieve higher airflow at lower RPMs, keeping noise levels minimal.

Efficient Energy Consumption

Despite its size and RGB features, the Prisma AL-18 is engineered for efficiency. With PWM regulation, it only spins as fast as needed, saving energy and reducing wear on the bearings.
