Review on ARCTIC P14 PWM - 140 mm Case Fan with Pressure-optimized PWM, Ultra Quiet Motor - Fan Speed: 200-1700 RPM - Black by Mateusz Wysokiski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

I bought 5 pieces to purge the system unit, put tights on them to protect them from dust (I have 3 cats at home) and even under such conditions they do their job perfectly. What we liked: - noise level. Up to 1000 rpm you will not hear them, above there will be quite audible noise from the air flow. - price. The most democratic in its category with excellent performance. - pack of 5 pieces. I immediately took the pack, because I planned to use one in the power supply to replace my noisy one, plus everything in the pack they come out much cheaper, but it didn’t fit the height (27 mm against my 25), so be careful if you plan to use this model for these purposes. - Possibility of serial connection. It's just a great idea to make a connector on the power cable! You can connect all 5 pieces to one connector, which allows you to synchronize their rotation and set up a group of turntables at once, only takes into account the nuance that the serial connector is close to the 4PIN connector, which may not be very convenient for someone. What did not like: - at high rotation speeds (more than 1000) they create vibration on the body and, accordingly, on the table, but this is solved by lowering the same speed. As an option, you can still experiment with silicone studs, it's a pity that they are not included. - hydrodynamic bearing. Unable to serve.

Pros
  • 1) good airflow 2) price 3) low noise 4) no backlight
Cons
  • 1) gives vibrations to the body at high speeds 2) plastic chips when tightening screws 3) no silicone studs included instead of bolts
