ARCTIC P12 Pro 5 Pack

I recently picked up the ARCTIC P12 Max, and I have to say, it's a solid fan for the price. It delivers great performance at an affordable cost. The fan has a wide speed range (200 to 3,300 RPM), so it's really versatile – it can run quietly at lower speeds and cool like a beast when you need it to. At full speed, it pushes a lot of air and offers decent static pressure, which makes it great for both case cooling and radiators.The build quality is good, and the double ball bearings should make it last a long time. The only downside I noticed is that it's a bit noisier at higher speeds compared to some other types of bearings, but it's not unbearable. It also comes with anti-vibration pads to reduce noise, which helps a lot.Installation is simple, and I really appreciate the six-year warranty – definitely a sign of confidence from ARCTIC. Overall, this is a great value fan that does exactly what you need it to without costing a fortune. If you're looking for solid cooling without breaking the bank, this is a great option.

Keeps my stuff cool very well, got 3 of them and im very happy

This fan is really effective because it doesn't muck about. At full tilt it is pretty loud, but darned effective. It also doesn't have an annoying high-pitched sound but sounds like a lot of OE fans with more of a roaring, whirring sound.You won't find a better fan for the money and it's able to shove enough air to cool a modest gaming PC on it's own. It's particularly good as a "pressure" fan, smooshing lots of air through grills and radiators.You could run it at full speed if nobody was going to be working nearby, but I would recommend PWM. It's the one fan on my gaming rig and it never gets to full speed as it does a good enough job it doesn't need to.

Wanted some fans to push some air ......obviously, for the money they're fine but far from the quiet I was hoping to run them at around 70% but that's out of the question far too noisy , now at 50% they're quiet enough, I have noctuas running at 70% and they're silent paying the extra for noctuas is worth it in the quest for silence with flowLook built ok, don't like the wire they look cheap not great for cable managementHave to add to this after using them for a while, the fans are failing already and I run them about 40% bearing is noisy

High CFM, silent at low RPMs, loud at high RPMs (as expected). I use this as my rear extract, operating at the same RPMs as my other standard P12s (configuring that in BIOS is a little laborious, but easily doable), only ramping up to max RPMs when the CPU is critically hot and the cooler with SP RPMs at max isn't cutting it (which never happens, but it's a good safety feature to have).Just make sure that if you're running one, more high powered fan, that it's configured properly in BIOS (to prevent negative internal case pressure/undue noise). Wouldn't reccomend for a heatsink due to the CFM design, but great for a case fanOtherwise, great build quality, dampers are a great touch, too, and great value. Looks cool too.

Pros: weighty, solid build and easy to install. I’ve added 4 fans, each to their own header and no daisy chain or control module.Reduced case, gpu and cpu temps by 8-10c under full load in my games, with a proper fan curve I barely ever hear it running now (for reference I use a NZXT H510 Flow case, 3080, 11700k with AiO)Cons: The db levels are low, however they are audible in a quiet room but not as volume, just a sound, a clear pitched sound - only those sensitive to audio will hear it from 1m away.Overall, 100% worth the small amount of money, per fan. Not 100% silent but you’d only get that with Noctua.

I have 3 of these as intake on a Be Quiet 500DX case. Performance is amazing. Noise... they definitely shake the walls past 2500rpm but they also extremely effective. Up to 2000RPM noise is good. These fans have great static pressure for cases with strong impedance/filtration. There is nothing similar on the market at this price point (maybe TL-B12 Extrem but at double the price).One year of heavy use - no issues. Price is excellent for what these fans ca do.

A decent amount of air is being push by the fans. The main issue I have is one out of the three I ordered seems to have developed a rattle fault with the bearing. A really frustrating wobble and clicking noise on each rotation. Not a really loud noise, but annoying.Fault aisde, the standard noise on low rpm has a bit of an annoying sound to it. It's not a high db reading, but the frequency or perhaps pattern of the sound is a bit annoying to me. It's almost like a slightly uneven rhythm. If it stayed the same level at all times it would be far less noticeable. It's quite possible other people wouldn't notice it. But when you use your computer for a large amount of time, if you don't like the sound it makes it does detract a little from enjoyment. Short term, no issue, but long term over the years fans typically last for me I think I'll change it.As a side note, I've also got them installed on a 360mm AIO so maybe in other settings they'll be completely fine. Could just be they aren't well suited to the back pressure. Although I bought them in the first place due to the advertised cooling rates for AIOs. They do however keep things cool.Compared with competitors price wise to airflow is great. Just a few QC issues to work on. I did also have some of the first fans as I preordered so maybe it was a bad batch.
