P12 Slim PWM PST

Bought as part of a Windows XP retro machine (x3) build project. Anyone from the 2000's will be able to tell you that back in the day cases were basically steel boxes with next to no airflow. By the 2010's cases changed into this wild-west transition phase from steel boxes, to steel boxes with wacky designs and questionable engineering choices - such as tight meshes, or grills obstructed by drive cages; or even "gamer aesthetics" shapes and bezels that made them look cool (well to some) but not very efficient or effective.What this means is that (even today) you need fans that can produce high-pressure to actually suck the air into the case, as well as expel it out through the exhaust areas. You also want to do this whilst also keeping the sound down. Arctic P12's are perfect for this. For a pack of 5 they are incredibly well priced, well engineered, and certainly pull the air through. Overall they offer a real no-frills solution to a problem that doesn't need excessive over-engineering; though today everyone wants a fishtank filled with ARGB so in that respect these aren't what you're looking for.From own experience clearly a performance upgrade over stock-fans on things like AIO's which, especially budget options, go for high-airflow fans as they tend to be quieter and run at lower rpm. Swapping these in on a few radiators I've seen a few degrees drop (as in 3-4 not unrealistic 10-20 like some people may claim) with less noise profile. All in all a solid and reliable option.

really really good, cheap price just makes them even betteruse one as intake in my nr200p, and keeps temps nice and lowEven replaced the stock aio fans with arctic p14s and could not recommend them any more. Both really easy to install, come with all screws needed for different uses, noise is absolutely minimal, even at higher rpm.Performance is great and dropped my temps, considering the constricted air space of a sff case

I have three front intake fans, a CPU heatsink fan pointing in the direction of the back vents, and a 140mm top exhaust fan above the CPU, which I figured would be enough for cooling. Apparently not! Adding this fan to the back actually dropped my CPU temperature by around 6C and even dropped the GPU temps by around 3C under full system load.The fan itself is fine. It has PWM, the noise isn't irritating at all, it's very slim but that doesn't seem to impact the performance much. The cable length is reasonable, much longer than the length of an ATX motherboard but probably not long enough to reach the bottom from the top when routing through the back of the case, so make sure you have a close-enough fan connector.

Thin version of the popular Arctic P12 PWM PST. Doesn't move much air but at least it does so quietly. Its motor may be a bit wobbly so the fan blades can hit a grille at full RPM if it's too tight against the fan.

Where this fan shines is in tight spaces. Whilst not as quiet as other fans, it doesn't claim to be. I have my Arctic P12 slim fitting in the top of my Fractal Design Meshify 2 Nano case and it provides additional cooling for my Ryzen 9800x 3D cooled by the Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro 5.Providing your case has sufficient clearance and space for additional fans, mounting is a standard affair and due to it's PWM technology fan speeds can be adjusted by the user in their PC's bio settings.This is a plucky, durable fan that provides versitility for the PC builder by increasing air flow in tight spaces.

Amazing quality and value of these fans, you will see these listed on numerous videos as a "runner up" or a "top 3" but ALL of them will say this is the "best value" fan by far and I agree. I run a ITX build and these guys are my only fans (exhaust fans) and they put in a hell of a shift. They are decently noisy but only when they are ramping up. I dont think any of the more "premium" fans would emit much more noise. These are the best "bang for buck" fans the market will provide for 120mm slim fans and keep my system cool considering.

The fan works perfectly. It is way better than the one I received in my pre-build. The fan has no noise due to any loose component, installation was beginner-friendly, thin design. Fan speed is visible to me through the Armoury Crate application. I'm happy with the purchase.

The best 120mm slim fan. I keep coming back to these for SFF builds, and they shift more air than alternatives.

El material llego en el plazo estipulado, embalado cada uno en su caja, se pueden conectar en serie uno con otro y el ultmo al PC so es perfecto para tenerlo bien refrigerado

top. everything works as described

使っていたファンが厚みがあり、拡張カードと干渉したためこちらを購入しました。期待通りで干渉は無くなりました。

Der ARCTIC P12 Slim PWM PST (120 mm) ist eine super Lösung, wenn im Gehäuse wenig Platz ist. Durch die schlanke Bauform passt er auch in engere Einbauorte, ohne bei der Kühlleistung komplett einzubrechen.Im Betrieb läuft der Lüfter angenehm leise und lässt sich per PWM sauber regeln. Besonders praktisch ist die PST-Funktion zum Durchschleifen mehrerer Lüfter. Die Verarbeitung wirkt für den Preis absolut ordentlich.Für kompakte Builds oder als zusätzlicher Gehäuselüfter eine sehr gute und preiswerte Option 👍

Excellent
