The product is definitely not worth the nerve, better not take it.

I bought two non-illuminated Arctic P12 PWM PST 120 mm black fans in Finland. I bought because of the price and believed the false reviews. They blow and cool well, but they make a lot of noise even at low speeds, even when playing with headphones, I heard them. My old NZXT A1225L12S fans are half as quiet at max speed. The material is also so-so, cheap. In general, I am very dissatisfied with them, because silence is important to me. I give two stars only for cooling and price.

Pros
  • Cheap price, cools well, looks good, but it doesn't matter.
Cons
  • It's very noisy!

Advantages: It's quieter and more effective at cooling than the ID-Cooling coolers I've used in the past. Its cons: One of the five coolers that come in a pack gives off a hum at medium speeds; the hum isn't very loud, but if you listen closely, you can detect it even in complete silence.

An ideal product for any type of consumer.

The fan operates quietly up to 1000 revolutions per minute, but at full speed it makes a lot of noise but moves a lot of air. It costs less than 690 rubles. Has drawbacks, such as the fact that the mounting screws are silver even though the fan is black, although this is probably more of a nitpicking issue than anything else.

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

No additional thoughts or feelings come to mind. Positives include high-quality fans. The force of the strike is palpable. I have been using such fans for over two years, on the tower, but not hydrodynamic, but rolling, they have a resource according to theory more, as they say))), but we'll see. The noise they make begins at around 1500 rpm, and even at that speed, it's not noise but like a wind. And there are drawbacks to that. When using fans linked to the motherboard, the only noticeable…

I'm impressed! Exactly the product deserves your attention.

The fans' modest packaging is fine, as they each come in their own cardboard box. offers benefits: Given the isolation of my location, the shipping time was quite short. Place called Sakhalin. Sending it via 2022 Post was great because it allowed for simple tracking and a quick signature upon delivery (right next to the house, without queues, without any problems) Fans get a 10-year guarantee, but I have no idea where or how to apply for it, let alone for the full decade. Disadvantages: It's…

I was surprised by the quality for this price.

I attached five pieces to the body, including two for blowing and three for blowing. At 1000 rpm, with the rotation set to fifty percent, they are completely silent. Undeniably deserving of every penny they spent Got pros: - I purchased the five-piece kit, but I won't bother using it. Also, two is less expensive than one. - Reduced temperature by an average of five degrees Figures (during the stress test of the AIDA64 system) shown in the photo with both the fans turned on and off. - Forming a…

Fits the description completely, very satisfying.

Due to the fact that they no longer have any advantages and are nearly impossible to disassemble without breaking, I stopped purchasing Noctua P12 Redux for 1200R. These Arctics operate silently and effectively, and they are extremely simple to remove and lubricate. has some benefits Extremely quiet, dismountable, 4pin, with additional connectors for a serial connection, fluid dynamic bearing, and good flow. Many drawbacks If there are more than two of them in the casing, there will be minimal…

All five pieces—one for blowing, three for blowing on the front panel, and one for blowing the video card from the bottom of the case—were placed within the Fractal design define c case. Only through rigorous stress tests at high (1400+) rpm does everything operate inaudibly. These are some advantages: Five fans of this caliber at once are worthless at this price. I must admit that the top-end dropsy from Arctic - Liquid Freezer 2 are these. As a result, both the sound quality and the air flow…

Good product for me, no problems at all.

A pair is present in the processor's PSU and Zalman cooler, and they are both connected by a 4-pin CPU. Everything I used to plug into the PSU created a noise or cracked owing to an unusual placement, and at slower consistent speeds, the PSU warmed up throughout matches and occasionally failed. 1080p60 spins at 950–1200 rpm in Chrome with a dozen tabs and YouTube, which is regarded as conditionally silent. My intention was to prevent rumbling at night. The primary component in games at 1400 rpm

Pros
  • No overtones like hum or crackling can be heard. The radiator is well-blown by the directed flow (raking blade shape) works upside-down sans the old PSU's crackle-crunch-howl Quite and lacking in nuance
Cons
  • You may hear the speed shift when loading large pages like 1080p60 YouTube videos in full silence. It is time for a tempo change, a brief tone change, and then quiet speech once more.

A valuable purchase, some advantages!

You may use it as a cooler fan to cool the processor, and you can use it as a case for your computer. Very quiet, even at 1000 rpm. The sound is tolerable, however on my system, which features a large radiator and a processor with a low temperature of 47 degrees Celsius, this fan either does not turn on at all or only operates at moderate speeds. Under load, it may reach up to +/-1500 revolutions per minute, and the level of noise is respectable but bearable. At some speeds, such as 800 or 1100

Pros
  • It was a bonus from (:), where I acquired it.

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

As a substitute, I went with Zalman; I bought two of them because they were as loud as an airport runway. Even at its absolute climax, Arctic 2's parts are completely inaudible to the listener. Because of how quiet they are, I would highly recommend getting one of these coolers if you have young children in the house or if you frequently use your computer late at night. At a distance of two meters from the computer, the bed can no longer be heard at all. They operate smoothly and quietly, but…

Pros
  • Exquisite cooler, so silent that it's absolutely lovely
Cons
  • It seems to be of low quality, however this is hidden by the case.

Overall it's good but I expect more, there are some downsides.

Following the allure of the evaluations, I hastily purchased three pieces in a case intended for blowing. At speeds above 800 rpm, they let out a high-pitched howl. The peak occurs between 1000 and 1200. The wail becomes less audible between 1300 and 1400 because of the wind. A tabletop system unit amplifies the howl to a level where I can hear it clearly. It'll drive you completely insane. I don't think anyone will notice if you put a system unit under the table. The only real downside to…

Pros
  • - Flow rate - Each fan wire has a m/f 4pin connector (the ability to combine fans into one chain for connection via 1 sys fan connector without additional splitters) - Price
Cons
  • - A shrill, high-pitched 1000-RPM PWM roar

Excellent product, the best quality.

quite quiet; in a closed casing, even at maximum power, you rarely hear them. I fitted all 5 as hull twists, which greatly improved the hull's ventilation. The air within the case stayed cool throughout a prolonged stress test using a GTX 1080 + 8700K overclocked (with an usage of roughly 150 watts), and the blown air flow was likewise not overly hot. But maybe most importantly, I was happy with the noise level because, even at the maximum speed of 1900 rpm, they are really virtually inaudible.

Pros
  • Quiet, powerful, excellent value, and top notch
Cons
  • If the absence of RGB might be viewed as a drawback:)

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

It was purchased to replace the Aerocool Aero-1000 case's stock fans. I don't want to purchase a reobas, but PWM PST technology is very helpful if there is only one SYS FAN connector on the motherboard, as there is with mys. Unfortunately, the fans are still noisy at high speeds. This is particularly obvious if there is a hole in the roof of the case and there are more than two fans. But the speed limiter is awesome! Simply select the Silent option, and the noise level returns to normal. I…

Pros
  • Board-level speed control can link three together to form a chain. Price, enough cable length for deep housing, and non-dim lighting
Cons
  • There is a hum at around 1200 RPM, but at about 1800 RPM the loudness of the airflow fully drowns out the hum.

The best price for such a product, I will buy more!

The typical coolers in the system unit (3 pieces; 2 up front and 1 at the back) were evidently no longer up to the task as the computer began to overheat. Since this significantly irritated me for a long time, I finally tried swapping out the stock coolers for new ones and adding two more on top, even if the processor was running at about the same temperature as it had been before. Result? In silent mode, the CPU temperature dropped to 28-30 degrees, while in games it rarely goes above 58-62…

Pros
  • You can cling to one another; Turnovers are governed by the motherboard; Strong; Well-Cooled;
Cons
  • Not

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

I am very happy with the purchase, it took about 10 minutes to set up the Asus tuf b450m pro to find a comfortable profile. Now these coolers are not heard from the word at all. Pros: Due to the fact that there are 5 coolers, 20% of the power is enough to keep the temperature on the processor (3500x) 50-60%. At these speeds you can't hear them at all. On the gammax 400 itself. Cons: With an increase in power to 60-100%, the sound from 5 coolers is very well audible. Most likely it is air, but…

Works and looks great

I bought three of these for my white case (Corsair Carbide 275R), maybe I'll buy another one to replace the CPU fan. They look great and work well. I have one that has serial link adapters.

Pros
  • Everything great!
Cons
  • Dear
