Silent and great price for great fan.

Good value, near silent
Decent 120mm PWM fanHas a spare header to connect another fan.Not very obvious, but does have markings on it to see direction of airflow.Reasonable length of cable.Standard mounting holes for case fan screws.

Great value and good chaining system
These are really good value. Very basic looking but get the job done cheaply and quietly. The fact that you can chain them together and even chain another 3rd party fan on the end is brilliant. Cut down on my cabling as I no longer needed a splitter. Just attach the first one to the motherboard chassis fan plug and away you go with the rest. They dont seem to move lot of air but its enough for my case as I am using them to exhaust hot air out of the Sharkon QB One ITX case. I have noticed that alt lower RPM (under 60%) the 2 fans next to each other seem to resonate and create a droning noise. I have ordered rubber mounts to see if that stops the resonating.

Impressive performance
First things first I paid £5.74 per fan. Can you really complain about anything at that price. Unless it’s DOA it’s great.I bought these to go in another system I was selling to a friend but needed replacement fans.So out of curiosity checked them against my noctua NF-A12s. I was very impressed with the performance of these artics. Yes they are slightly slower and slightly noisier but I would say it’s more of a different tone. My noctua fans are on a fan curve and don’t go above 1250 rpm on a high load probably around 1100 rpm gaming. The artics were just as capable at and just as quiet at these rpms. At 1300rpm is where I start to notice the nose the same with my noctua. But I can get 5 of these for the price of 1 noctua and have change left over.Only criticisms I have is the packaging is a bit subpar you could say minimalistic but I could see them being prone to more damage during shippingThe quality of it as in the look and feel it looks cheap (which it is) and flimsy ( they’re not they just look it) no anti vibration dampening.Will they last as long probably not but I think they’d last a reasonable amount of time and they do have a warranty and again £5. At that price you could do a push /pull configuration and have the fans running silent all the time and it would still be lest than running the noctuas or be quiets in push configuration.

Quality Fan
Bought as a replacement for a fan which had become incredibly noisy. Fitted this, no problem. Quiet and efficient, as you'd expect from Arctic.

Amazing value! Very quiet!
I ordered these (P12 PWM PST) to replace the fans my case came with as they were 3 pin fans and my motherboard couldn't control them with voltage. Installing them was no more difficult than any other fan but whats better than other fans is the PST splitter on each fan, this means that even though I installed 3 fans they only used one PWM fan header, simply amazing.Once I adjusted the fan speed in my bios these fans were whisper quiet and well worth the price, they even perform well and move a decent amount of air for their respected RPM.

Decent fans, especially for the price
These are great fans for the price. Good airflow/ pressure, very little noise, vibration or coil whine (they're stepping an Noctua' s toes). The port sharing tech is very handy (multiple fans off a single header, you can even run non-PWM fans off these and both will have their speeds controlled via PWM).As for performance: They're powerful enough to move air through a filter at 500rpm, most people wouldn't be able to hear these at 1000-1200rpm. Very quiet & unobtrusive up to 1500-1600rpm where the only sound is the air moving (they do move a good amount of air), past that point they become noticeably louder and you can start to hear the fan's motor, still better than most.I deducted a star for mounting as they don't come with rubber mounts.

Easy enough to install...but!
It was easy enough to take my motherboard out to put the bracket behind for securing the plates to. Unfortunately when it came time to put the thermal paste onto my CPU the tube supplied in the box had completely dried out! It was more like Blu Tack or plasticine than thermal paste. Luckily I had some MX-4 paste from a previous job.
