Great fan at good prices
I recently picked up the ARCTIC P12 Max, and I have to say, it's a solid fan for the price. It delivers great performance at an affordable cost. The fan has a wide speed range (200 to 3,300 RPM), so it's really versatile – it can run quietly at lower speeds and cool like a beast when you need it to. At full speed, it pushes a lot of air and offers decent static pressure, which makes it great for both case cooling and radiators. The build quality is good, and the double ball bearings should make it last a long time. The only downside I noticed is that it's a bit noisier at higher speeds compared to some other types of bearings, but it's not unbearable. It also comes with anti-vibration pads to reduce noise, which helps a lot. Installation is simple, and I really appreciate the six-year warranty – definitely a sign of confidence from ARCTIC. Overall, this is a great value fan that does exactly what you need it to without costing a fortune. If you're looking for solid cooling without breaking the bank, this is a great option.

Good for the money, but you need PWM
This fan is really effective because it doesn't muck about. At full tilt it is pretty loud, but darned effective. It also doesn't have an annoying high-pitched sound but sounds like a lot of OE fans with more of a roaring, whirring sound. You won't find a better fan for the money and it's able to shove enough air to cool a modest gaming PC on it's own. It's particularly good as a "pressure" fan, smooshing lots of air through grills and radiators. You could run it at full speed if nobody was going to be working nearby, but I would recommend PWM. It's the one fan on my gaming rig and it never gets to full speed as it does a good enough job it doesn't need to.

Arctic p12 desktop pc fan
Good and powerful,value for money,easy to instal.Bought 2 of them for my desktop to replace some stock ones for better cooling.Aftet replacing the ones I had,system,pch and Mos temperature dropped with about 5-7°C.Only issue is that they can get a bit noisy when running above 70% capacity.Not a problem if you use headphones for gaming.

Great fans
I have 3 of these as intake on a Be Quiet 500DX case. Performance is amazing. Noise... they definitely shake the walls past 2500rpm but they also extremely effective. Up to 2000RPM noise is good. These fans have great static pressure for cases with strong impedance/filtration. There is nothing similar on the market at this price point (maybe TL-B12 Extrem but at double the price). One year of heavy use - no issues. Price is excellent for what these fans ca do.

Great
High CFM, silent at low RPMs, loud at high RPMs (as expected). I use this as my rear extract, operating at the same RPMs as my other standard P12s (configuring that in BIOS is a little laborious, but easily doable), only ramping up to max RPMs when the CPU is critically hot and the cooler with SP RPMs at max isn't cutting it (which never happens, but it's a good safety feature to have). Just make sure that if you're running one, more high powered fan, that it's configured properly in BIOS (to prevent negative internal case pressure/undue noise). Wouldn't reccomend for a heatsink due to the CFM design, but great for a case fan Otherwise, great build quality, dampers are a great touch, too, and great value. Looks cool too.

Push a lot of air but seems to be a little poor construction.
A decent amount of air is being push by the fans. The main issue I have is one out of the three I ordered seems to have developed a rattle fault with the bearing. A really frustrating wobble and clicking noise on each rotation. Not a really loud noise, but annoying. Fault aisde, the standard noise on low rpm has a bit of an annoying sound to it. It's not a high db reading, but the frequency or perhaps pattern of the sound is a bit annoying to me. It's almost like a slightly uneven rhythm. If it stayed the same level at all times it would be far less noticeable. It's quite possible other people wouldn't notice it. But when you use your computer for a large amount of time, if you don't like the sound it makes it does detract a little from enjoyment. Short term, no issue, but long term over the years fans typically last for me I think I'll change it. As a side note, I've also got them installed on a 360mm AIO so maybe in other settings they'll be completely fine. Could just be they aren't well suited to the back pressure. Although I bought them in the first place due to the advertised cooling rates for AIOs. They do however keep things cool. Compared with competitors price wise to airflow is great. Just a few QC issues to work on. I did also have some of the first fans as I preordered so maybe it was a bad batch.

Great performance to noise ratio
Pros: weighty, solid build and easy to install. I’ve added 4 fans, each to their own header and no daisy chain or control module. Reduced case, gpu and cpu temps by 8-10c under full load in my games, with a proper fan curve I barely ever hear it running now (for reference I use a NZXT H510 Flow case, 3080, 11700k with AiO) Cons: The db levels are low, however they are audible in a quiet room but not as volume, just a sound, a clear pitched sound - only those sensitive to audio will hear it from 1m away. Overall, 100% worth the small amount of money, per fan. Not 100% silent but you’d only get that with Noctua.

【静音性】 一般的な1000円前後のファンと同じくらいです。1200rpm以下ならまだ静かと言えますが、それ以上となると明らかに煩わしいファン音が聞こえてきます。 特に、文書作成中など、静かな環境下で1300rpmを越えようものなら、「うるせぇ!回転数を下げてやる!」と、おもむろに速度調節をし始める始末です。 まあ、値段相応の静音性です。 【冷却性】 風量はわかりませんが、風の広がり方が満遍なく正確で、上に乗せたティッシュが綺麗に浮き広がります。 更に、50%、100%と高回転にすれば、アホみたいに風を突き出し始め、ファンが猛る猫の如く「ウゥウ~↑」と唸りを上げ、ティッシュがケースの天面に張り付き、静圧が高いとはこのことか!と実感できます。 しかし、バカみたいにレオパレス。 【総評】 ・高負荷時にうるさくてもいいから冷えてほしい。アツアツ空気を吹き飛ばしてほしい ・私の環境下なら!動画音、ゲーム音、環境音、物理的な距離がファン音なんてかき消してくれる!冷却性重視だ! ・普段は低回転で静音性を確保!緊急時にぶん回しで冷却性を確保! という極端な方向けです。「高回転・高静音」をお求めなら、Noctuaなど、さらに予算が必要です。

Der ARCTIC P12 Max hat mich wirklich überzeugt! Dieser PC-Lüfter punktet in mehreren Bereichen und bietet eine erstklassige Leistung. Zunächst einmal beeindruckt die Lautlosigkeit des Lüfters. Selbst bei einer Last von 40% bleibt er erstaunlich leise, was besonders während intensiver Nutzungssituationen sehr angenehm ist. Die ausgezeichnete Kühlleistung trägt dazu bei, dass mein System stets optimal temperiert bleibt. Der Preis für den ARCTIC P12 Max liegt im vernünftigen Rahmen und bietet ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Der schnelle Einbau war ebenfalls ein Pluspunkt, da ich nicht viel Zeit mit der Installation verbringen musste. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt für mich persönlich ist das Fehlen von unnötigem RGB-Schnickschnack. Der Lüfter erfüllt seinen Zweck ohne die Notwendigkeit, das Gehäuse mit bunten Lichtern zu überladen. Insgesamt bin ich äußerst zufrieden mit dem ARCTIC P12 Max und kann ihn jedem empfehlen, der auf der Suche nach einem zuverlässigen, leisen und effizienten PC-Lüfter ohne überflüssige Extras ist.

All fans work perfectly, which I was pleased with as there were some reports of people receiving extremely loud fans with bearing issues. There's really no better value for money option.

2 adet aldım. Birinde fan bıçağı belirli bi noktada dış kasaya değiyor. Dönmeye başlarken ve dururken ses çıkartıyor. Normal dönerken sıkıntı olmuyor. Edit: Üründe bi hata yok montajdan kaynaklıymış. Radyatöre uzun vidalarla monte etmiştim. Anladığım kadarıyla uzun vida kullanırken, karşılıklı iki delik arası destek olmadığı için biraz fazla sıkınca kasa hafif bükülüyor. Vidaları biraz gevşetince düzeldi.

Great fan with strong airflow. Keeps temps low and runs quiet. Build quality is solid, and it looks clean in my setup. Gets a bit loud at full speed, but that’s expected. Overall, excellent value for high-performance cooling.
