ARCTIC P12 PWM PST (5 Pack) - PC Fan, 120mm Fan, PC Case Fan, PWM Sharing Technology (PST), Pressure-optimised, quiet motor, Computer, 200-1800 rpm (0 rpm <5%) - Black

As a PC builder who frequently works with small form factor (SFF) cases, finding the right balance of performance, noise, and cable management is a constant challenge. The ARCTIC P12 Pro PST fans have not only met but exceeded my expectations, proving to be an exceptional choice for mini-ITX builds and beyond. The most striking feature of these fans is their incredible static pressure. In a cramped mini-ITX case, airflow can be restricted by components, cables, and radiator fins. These fans are a true powerhouse, pushing air with impressive force through all the tight spaces to keep components cool. While I initially bought them for my SFF rig, their performance would be equally beneficial in any standard case, whether for CPU cooling or general chassis ventilation. The build quality feels solid, and the fan operates remarkably quietly for the amount of air it moves, especially when compared to other high-pressure alternatives. I've also found that while they are a bit louder than the standard P12s at lower RPMs, they really hit their stride around 1000 RPM, pushing a much greater volume of air with a minimal increase in noise. What truly sets the P12 Pro apart, however, is the Power Sharing Technology (PST). This feature is a game-changer for anyone with a motherboard that has limited PWM fan headers. The PST allows you to daisy-chain multiple fans from a single header, which not only simplifies cable management but also saved me from needing to buy an expensive fan hub or splitter. It’s a brilliant, user-friendly design that makes the installation process seamless and cost-effective. In short, the ARCTIC P12 Pro PST offers a perfect combination of high-performance cooling and smart, practical features. For mini-ITX builders, they are a must-have for their superior static pressure. For everyone else, the easy installation and PWM sharing technology make them a fantastic value. This is a top-tier product that I can highly recommend

Havent tested these much but had great success with arctic fans in the past. This is my first purchase of the Pro range, ive had good experience with the normal P12 and P14's in the past. Be aware though, ive heard there are issues with screwing in the screws with these new Pro arctic fans. So I also got some bulk fan screws as spares, from a certain Chinese app similar to amazon Haul along with it. Just to keep on the side in case I wear out any screw heads. Alternatively, just make sure you screw the screws in carefully. The fans are not threaded, so you need to press down with your screwdriver and turn with a nice amount of torque, while making sure the screwdriver is the correct fit and firmly inside the screw. If you let it slip too often, itll wear out the screw head and that will be a big headache for you as itll be hard for you to remove the screw without generating harmful metal dust or damaging the fan. Overall rating: - speed control: 10/10 - airflow: 10/10 - value for money: 10/10 - noise at normal rpm: good, quiet - noise at high rpm: very loud, but very effective

The ARCTIC P12 Pro PST fans are a powerhouse in a 120mm package. With an impressive static pressure of around 6.9 mmH2O and airflow up to 77 CFM, these fans excel at pushing air through dense radiators and heatsinks, keeping my system cool even under heavy loads. The PWM control and PST technology make managing multiple fans a breeze, and the fluid dynamic bearings promise durability and quiet operation over time. Installation is super easy—these fans fit perfectly into standard 120mm mounts, and the included Y-cable splitter simplifies wiring multiple fans without a spaghetti mess. Even if you’re not a PC building pro, you’ll have these fans up and running in no time. On the plus side, these fans ramp up smoothly and deliver strong, focused airflow without sounding like a jet engine. The automated balancing really helps keep vibrations low, which is a nice touch for a fan in this price range. However, if you’re a silence fanatic, be warned: at low speeds, there’s a subtle whining noise that creeps in. It’s not loud enough to ruin the experience, but it’s noticeable if your ears are tuned in. At higher speeds, the noise is more of a gentle hum, which is quite acceptable given the performance. Overall, if you want robust cooling with excellent static pressure, easy installation, and don’t mind a little low-speed whine, the ARCTIC P12 Pro PST is a fantastic choice—especially with the 6-year warranty backing it up. Just don’t expect complete silence when your system is idling.

Brough to replace miss-match of fans in son's pc case to improve cooling/airflow and once installed which was pretty straight forward we soon noticed temps improving and being newer fans the noise was considerably quieter as well. The fans do not have RGB, but that is not what we were looking for, they seem to be compatible with the onboard software on his PC so the speed and noise is managed automatically for best performance, the fans feel well-built no weak/cheap feeling plastic so hopefully they will last for a few good years. May not the best fans in the world, but they do a great job and won't break the bank and provide more than adequate air flow for keeping you machine cool.

I don't usually leave reviews, as what Im about to say has probably already been covered. I have come from a trio of Thermalright (TR) RGB fans that cost less than a meal for two at McDonald's, although they were extremely budget-friendly. My gripes with them: RGB software no matter who makes it just sucks, and I can't be bothered to try anymore. That's not specifically TR's problem, but after a few short months, mine developed a strange Noise at med-high RPM that can be best described as a whirling cat. I was just fed up of using them. With that, I've decided RGB is no longer for me and I'd rather have fans that work as intended. I had been looking at Noctua's but ideally didn't want to break the bank to replace the fans I already had. Coming onto the Arctic P12 Fans, I couldn't be happier. A little more expensive than TR, but you do get 2 extra fans. No RGB and these do come with mounting screws, although the head for the screw is a little smaller than my previous set, but still fits my case mounting locations just as well. I will say that the PWM cable is slightly shorter than I was expecting, but I moved the PWM hub to compensate, no big deal. They replaced the case fans for the front intake and CPU Heatsink fans. They seem to pull air through my system well and without being audible. CPU and GPU temperatures also seem to be lower by 1 or 2 degrees; not a huge difference but enough to keep me happy. Thanks, Arctic, I will be back for another pack soon.

Excellent fans. Silent and they daisy chain. Cannot ask for more.

Cheap and work absolutely fine. Not the quietest but for 5 noctua fans it would cost me over twice as much.

cheap, works perfectly and silent - but unfortunately one of it is broken on open otherwise it will be 5 stars

They are more loud then my old 120m led fans i had before but they are not the loudest fans i have owned and they work really well i plan to buy some again to have spares for my main pc or other computers as for the cost they work great.

Insanely powerful fans. Like it’s ridiculous. There’s a near perfect balance between static pressure and CFM. I’m using these for a TEC cooling loop for my laptop. They reduced idle temperatures from 10°c to 2°c. Absolutely ridiculous fans. Would buy again.

Questa è la seconda volta che acquisto il pack da 5 delle ARCTIC P12 Pro PST. Dopo averle montate nel mio primo case, ho deciso di fare il bis per un secondo progetto. Se cercate ventole che spostano tanta aria senza svuotare il portafoglio (e senza il caos dei LED RGB), queste sono la scelta definitiva. Punti di Forza (PRO): Sistema PST (Sharing Technology): La funzione più utile in assoluto. Ogni ventola ha uno sdoppiatore integrato, quindi potete collegarle in cascata (daisy-chain) tra loro. Questo permette di gestire 3 o più ventole usando un solo connettore sulla scheda madre, mantenendo il cablaggio pulitissimo. Range di RPM incredibile: Arrivano fino a 3000 RPM (molto più delle P12 standard), il che le rende perfette anche per i radiatori più densi o per chi ha bisogno di massima pressione statica. Modalità 0 RPM: Sotto il 5% di segnale PWM, le ventole si fermano completamente. Ideale per chi cerca il silenzio assoluto durante la navigazione web o il lavoro d'ufficio. Pressione Statica Elevata: La forma delle pale è ottimizzata per spingere l'aria attraverso ostacoli (come filtri antipolvere o dissipatori), non solo per muoverla nel case. Cuscinetto Idrodinamico: Silenziose e durature. Anche ai medi regimi non si sentono ronzii meccanici fastidiosi. Considerazioni da "Pro": Dato che arrivano a 3000 RPM, al massimo della velocità si sentono (è fisica, muovono una massa d'aria enorme). Tuttavia, grazie al controllo PWM, potete tenerle a 800-1000 RPM per un silenzio quasi totale con prestazioni comunque superiori alla media. Il mio verdetto: Perché spendere il triplo per marche più blasonate quando ARCTIC offre queste prestazioni e 10 anni di garanzia? Il fatto che le abbia riacquistate parla da sé. Best-buy assoluto per ogni build PC.

They blow good, id pay more for the blow they offer. Definitely a noticable difference in airflow since swapping to these.

Packaging could honestly be better I once reordered a Due to broken from impact fans inside , these ones however were working but packaging was still the same , no bublewrap whatsoever just one cardboard box and a flimsy plastic bag . Value for money ? Yes but these are heavy duty on your power supply so be mindful . Great quality fans overall i doubt anyone bothers with pc case fans but if u do , these are good
