120mm fan by Arctic for computer case. When operating at maximum speed, it can push up to 56.3cfm of air in one minute (cubic feet per minute). The larger the number, the more effective the cooling the fan can provide. Higher quality fans can produce the same airflow with less noise and fewer revolutions.
Optimized for Static Pressure
During the development of the new P12 PWM PST, special emphasis was placed on a focused airflow and therefore on high static pressure. The fan guarantees extremely efficient cooling, even with increased air resistance. Therefore, the P12 PWM PST is particularly suitable for use on heatsinks and radiators.
More efficient technology
The motor is powered by a Neodym-Iron-Boron-Magnet ring of the latest generation, which allows the new P12 PWM PST to operate much more efficiently than its predecessors. This saves energy and reduces coil temperature without reducing performance.
Maximum Quiet, Minimal Vibrations
Even at low speeds, the operating sound of the new ARCTIC motor is barely noticeable. Due to the sinus-magnetizing, the new motor generates only about 5% of the vibration from the switching of a regular DC motor without a filter. Consequently, there is no need for rubber spacers due to the steady and smooth torque of the new motor.
Extended Lifespan
A lower motor temperature by 10 °C approximately doubles the lifespan of a fan. The new motor has four times the lifespan due to the low temperature of the coil.
200 to 1800 RPM adjustable via PWM PST
Thanks to the 4-pin connector, the RPM can be adjusted over a wide range via PWM. This way, noise is kept to a minimum, while maximum cooling performance is guaranteed when needed.
High-Quality Bearings
Thanks to a combination of alloy/lubricant developed in Germany, the friction within the bearing is reduced and greater efficiency is achieved. As a result, there is less heat generation as well as less noise from the bearings, which means you can enjoy a longer lifespan from your fan.

The most value for money in fans! I have had them for over 4 years and I have put them in 2 different cases (because I changed the case). Very good airflow and most importantly, the fans are not noisy
I bought a set of three to install on the front side of the case. They work really well as intakes. They are almost silent with the performance profile I set. I would highly recommend them.
A few tips for those interested:
- Make sure you have a good screwdriver. The screws create the threads they go into.
- Be careful not to put too many fans on the same header as the PST cable. It can cause the computer to shut down when it's working on something. If you don't have many headers, get an active fan hub.
A lot of targeted airflow, more towards the straight and not scattered, and a much, much quieter fan compared to the fans that came with the Phanteks Eclipse P400S Windowed Mid-Tower Case Tempered Glass - Black/Red. The fans of this case are audible. I noticed a temperature difference of about one degree, I don't know why, but it sends a lot of air with minimal noise, so you shouldn't hear anything else to say that it's working. I don't know why other people say they saw a few degrees decrease in temperature, but for me, it's at most one degree lower, I'm probably not doing something right. I can hear the refrigerator in the house, but not the fans without exaggeration. The airflow coming out of the fan depends on the configuration of the fan blades. Some fans send the air scattered, others send it straight. If you watch videos on YouTube from more specialized sources, you will see that fans and cooling are a science, and if you're interested, you will learn interesting things about what fans you need for your PC and where to place them for better results. For example, the cables should be neatly organized and not scattered inside the case, as we used to do in the past, in order to disrupt the airflow and hinder cooling, resulting in higher temperatures.

I made a general upgrade to the fans, I installed 3 arctic fans and one static fan from another company for ventilation on my Ryzen 5 2600 RX570 8GB PC. It runs at temperatures as if it's idle all the time, I play and record in Escape from Tarkov as if there's nothing, they are worth 100%. It eliminated any FPS loss due to temperature and stuttering in games that I thought were only caused by RAM and CPU issues. For me, who is trying to keep my PC alive until I make a very good upgrade, it is generally much better than I expected!!! As for the noise, it is very discreet for me, but it is not objective because I currently have 6 fans in the case + 2 GPU + 1 CPU
For 5 euros, they are perfect.
+ Quality
+ Warranty
+ PWM fans up to 1800rpm
And a well-known brand, Arctic.
Anyone who wants to buy something not crazy or something economical, buy them without fear!
I bought three and I don't regret it. They are affordable and very effective. They are quite silent, although they become noisy at maximum speed, but not annoyingly like the NZXT Aer P120. I recommend it for a cheap option without RGB, and it's better to get the model that you can connect one to another and control all the fans together.
The set with the fans is excellent. They were all placed in a Coolermaster midi case, 3 as intake and 2 as exhaust.
The connection between them is very easy, so that not many cables go over the motherboard headers. The speed adjustment, close to 1000rpm, provides both good airflow and minimal noise.
Even if their speed increases, due to temperature during gaming for example, the noise remains at relatively low levels without being bothersome.
Whether as a set or individually, these specific P12 fans are worth their money and more!
I bought 5 and put 3 in a new machine with a bad case. The rest replaced the fans in an old machine. Good airflow and very satisfactory in terms of noise (especially noticeable in the old one)
30 degrees lower the gpu!!! I had the stock fan and I put these 5. At 100% besides not being heard, they do real work. I expected max 10 degrees lower on the gpu and I saw 30. Design the airflow and you will see a difference (I put 2 to intake and 3 to exhaust). Also, with the parallel connection adapters, you don't need an expensive motherboard or controller to have 5 fans.
I removed the stock fans of the GPU and installed 2 P12 fans, they are much quieter for the same temperature levels. At 10-20%, they are silent, up to 50% they are very quiet, even at 100% I don't find them very annoying (no mechanical noise), they just don't make much difference in temperatures, so it's not worth the hassle. Personally, I have chosen to run them at 65-70% because I can tolerate the noise for hours up to that point.
I also placed a few in the case to reach 50% when the GPU is under load. Not that it helps much, but they are not audible compared to the two on the GPU anyway.
Keep in mind that there have been many reports on the internet about synchronization issues with these fans. I haven't encountered anything like that, but it may happen to you. However, for their price, I believe it's worth taking the risk, as the alternatives are MUCH more expensive.
Whether I installed them or not, the temperature remained the same. In a special box, 2 in the front with airflow towards the center and 2 on top with airflow towards the outside. No difference in temperature! I set them to higher speeds through the motherboard and at 1500 RPM they only reduce the temperature by 2 degrees with difficulty.
Money wasted. But you always get what you pay for!
I ordered 2 good fans at triple the price of these 5 to put them in the exhaust to lower the temperature. Simply wasted money buying these. It is about the Montageanleitung S-3901 case (a relatively good case) with graphics cards mining 24/7. I think there is no better way to test the temperature than mining. Before installing them, I had 1 Noctua fan for exhaust and it reduced the temperature by 5 degrees, meaning 3 degrees higher than these 4 fans. MONEY WASTED.
Very good fans and not only for the 4.8 euros I paid per piece, but they easily compare to the noctua ones that cost three times as much. Not so much in terms of build quality and noise, but they are not far off from the noctua ones, especially in terms of noise and airflow. And let's not forget, 4.8 euros with a 10-year warranty!!!!
Quiet, cheap, PWM, you can daisy chain them so no need for a splitter, and with 0.08A per fan, you can power the entire case from one header (1A = 12 fans).
They have several years of warranty and from the little I've tested them, they seem to perform very well.
I have had them for a month and all 5 have been installed in the box... Completely value for money. The temperature of the components is 20 degrees lower and they don't even work at full speed. The best purchase, no second thoughts
Super-affordable fan at a very good price (bought for 4.8 euros).
The power type is PWM, which means that the connection pin has 4 slots. This means that if you connect it directly to the motherboard (in the appropriate slots, known as fan headers, which all modern motherboards have), instead of the power supply, the rotation speed is automatically adjusted according to the current temperature, resulting in less noise and reduced energy consumption. In case you have more fans than headers, there is the possibility of daisy-chaining through the second 3-pin cable (already factory-connected to the 4-pin), as long as the header can handle the required volts. You can find this detail in the motherboard's manual, although generally modern motherboards can easily accommodate 2-3 fans per header, as their requirements are very low.
The "P" characteristic refers to the fan's category. It is designed to intake as much air as possible, especially in limited space. This makes it ideal for cooling multiple drives and cases that do not have large air vents due to design. Depending on the case you have, you can create the appropriate airflow with 4-5 of these fans. Personally, I have installed 3 in the front for intake and 2 in the back for exhaust (Caution: the airflow direction is determined by the placement, refer to the instructions to position them correctly).
A worthy investment for your computer, it is worth the money and more. Invest without hesitation.
One of the best computer cooling sets. 5 fans 120mm with 4pin/3pin connectors. 1800 rpm max. A few words about the set. Inside the package are the 5 fans along with a bag that contains the screws, 20 (silver color, would prefer black). No instructions or other paper included. Each one has a connector for parallel connection, for example, you can connect them all together and use only one port from your motherboard, so you don't need a splitter or any other extension. The final 4pin connector helps you adjust the fan speed through the BIOS or a specific motherboard program. In browsing and light work conditions, they are quiet, I have no complaints but also no complete opinion because I haven't seen their effectiveness in heavy applications such as rendering, etc. I will update my comment in a few days once they are tested more.
*The fans perform well in rendering-gaming conditions, at 1200-1300 rpm they are a bit audible (not annoying) and the temperatures remain normal. Above 1500-1600 rpm they start to become bothersome, prefer a curve that suits your needs.
**At full speed, they are very loud but I believe it doesn't represent the average user's operation.
***Great value for money ratio, I recommend them.
