ARCTICF12 - PC Fan, 120mm Standard Case Fan, Low Noise, Quiet Motor, Computer, Fan Speed: 1350 RPM - Black

I’m very happy with this purchase! Based upon some Amazon reviews I was a little concerned when ordering but I need not have been. The fans arrived in fine shape, they’re well built and work! At 12 VDC they made a tiny bit of noise so I run them at 9 VDC… at that voltage the fans are for all intent and purposes silent and they still move a lot of air! Five of these fans just sip electricity when driven at 9 volts… just around 6 watts, 144 watts per day.Obviously I’m not using the fans for their intended purpose inside a computer case or electronic equipment. These little box fans allow a very simple approach to keep rooms that are distant from our fireplace heated. For my project I built some wood frames, routed a channel into the frame, wired them, set some hooks in the top of the doorway and DC power from a cheap transformer, hung them up, plugged ‘em in and there you have it.As said in the old HBO series Game of Thrones… WINTER IS COMING!

With a fervent heart filled with zeal for technological prowess, I embarked on a quest to seek out the finest fans that the market had to offer. Lo and behold, my pilgrimage came to a triumphant culmination upon my encounter with the Arctic F12 fans, a testament to ingenuity and craftsmanship. Permit me to regale you with a tale of my profound experience, wherein I shall extol their virtues in great detail.First and foremost, let us discuss the undeniable allure of their affordable price.

A boon to those with discerning budgets, this fiscally prudent choice in no way sacrifices quality or performance. Nay, it boasts an exceptional value that casts an enchanting spell upon all who seek premium cooling solutions without breaking the coffers.The narrative of installation unfolds as a tale of ease, evoking nothing short of admiration for the designers' astute considerations. I, a mere mortal with limited technical prowess, found myself pleasantly surprised by the simplicity with which these fans were affixed to my system. A seamless process that, much to my delight, required naught but the most basic of tools and skills. Oh, how the fates smile upon those who bask in the breeze of the Arctic F12.Yet, as with all great journeys, there lie trials and tribulations in wait. For those, like myself, whose motherboard lacks sufficient fan connectors, a word of caution: an essential component thou must secure, lest thou find thyself bereft of the full blessings of these wondrous fans. A case fan splitter or a case fan hub shall serve as the key that unlocks the potential of the Arctic F12's cooling prowess, rendering any previous impediments as mere trifles in the grand tapestry of your computing experience.In the realm of acoustic harmony, these fans prove to be virtuosos, emitting nary a cacophonous note to mar the serenity of your abode. In my hours of meticulous scrutiny, I discovered no discordant whispers of excessive noise, but rather, a harmonious symphony of silent efficiency. Engulfed in this tranquil reverie, I basked in the reassurance that my computational haven was undisturbed by the clatter that oft plagues lesser fans.Venturing forth into the realm of airflow, I found myself enchanted by the Arctic F12's prowess. Mighty currents of cooling air surged forth from their supple blades, encapsulating my beloved components with tender care. The perils of inadequate airflow, a bane that can undo the noblest of systems, found no foothold in the face of these formidable fans. For assuredly, they have been crafted with an unwavering dedication to unyielding performance.Lastly, my fellow admirers of simplicity, rejoice, for in the Arctic F12, you shall find the epitome of elegance. Embracing an understated aesthetic, these fans stand as paragons of sophistication, free from the distracting allure of gaudy lights and ostentatious embellishments. Their simple black attire befits any system, harmonizing with a myriad of configurations, thereby bestowing upon thee a timeless allure that is both chic and unpretentious.Thus, dear readers, in the Arctic F12, I discovered a revelation—a treasure trove of cooling mastery that surpasses all expectations. Herein lies a sage counsel to heed: let not thy gaze wander further, for no greater marvel shall be found. Embrace the Arctic F12 and witness the metamorphosis of thy computing experience into a symphony of efficiency and tranquility.

Needed fans and didn't want to spend a ton of money on them so I got these and they seem to be performing well, not the quietest fans in the world but not to loud to where I get annoyed with them, was pretty easy to install compared to some others I have installed in the past(fans are typically easy to install) I have no complaints on these fans, pretty good purchase

ARCTIC F12 120 mm Standard Case Fan (5 Pack) stands out as an excellent budget-friendly option for users seeking enhanced cooling performance with minimal noise. Its universal compatibility and straightforward design make it a practical choice for a wide range of computer setups. If you're looking for an affordable and efficient cooling solution, this fan pack is a solid investment.

Reasonably priced inner PC fans that are quiet, easy to install, and seem to work as described.

Great value. Quiet operation. Quality design and materials. Highly recommended.

Exceptional (low) noise floor, with 2 mounted direct to "radiator" with no isolation, or address to possible issues, with direct coupling, at this point, to experiment and model actual size with 4 mounted in a push / push / front back set-up. I ordered 5 more to complete second system (for 2 channel mono audio amplifiers). I saved resources by using these, in testing and modeling. 3-400 wpc, A/B push-pull amplifier**I am 15 feet from my refrigerator, and 3 feet from fan/cooling system... which falls way beneath the noise floor of the room or adjacent kitchen with fridge. (it appears) this cooling system (x2) will be buried in the ambient noise floor of the room, well beneath music. I have to be a few feet away, directly in front of the system to even hear/sense it blowing on me... and a stick of burning incense to detect air velocity. Stunned by the silence!!!Four of these mounted in a p/p with 240mm "radiator" fairly hard mounted with M4 hardware, and some rubber decoupling... these fans run quieter then when I was static testing, I could not be happier... much lie ahead in testing the entire water water system, I imagine the mass of the water will further dampen overall system function.LOVE these fans, need upwards of 25 or 30 for multiple projects, further builds and modeling. I am grateful these are inexpensive and very good for my application. In strict audio / audiophile settings; fans have ~always~ had multiple penalties... I am re-thinking this, based on experience with these Arctic fans.

Satisfied with item, good quality and worked well...

A good set of fans for a good price. These are whisper quiet and certainly get the job done. Very pleased.

Me gustaron los ventiladores ya que son silenciosos, aunque si aun no los compras te recomiendo mejor comprar los Arctic P12 PWM de 4 pines, ya que los puedes usar en el disipador del procesador y también en el gabinete, solo son 100 pesos más caros pero, ten en cuenta que están al nivel de un noctua a12x25 los cuales son el doble de caros

Für einen 5er Pack 120mm Lüfter ist der Preis hervorragend.Die Lüfter laufen leise, aber bei weitem nicht unhörbar (wer bspw. schon mit Noctua-Lüftern zu tun hatte, wird Welten zwischen leise und fast nicht hörbar bzw. guter Qualität vs. hervorragender Qualität feststellen - allerdings kosten hier 5 Lüfter den Preis von 1 ähnlichem Noctua.)Gemessene Leistungsaufnahme:1,8W @ 12V1,0W @ 9V3 parallel geschaltetLeistungsaufnahme@ 9V: 2,7W@ 6V: 1,1WLautstärke@ 9Vgemessen: 61dB (20cm Distanz)subjektiv: ruhiges, gleichmäßiges, tiefes Rauschen; in einem stillen Raum definitiv nicht zu ignorieren; (die nicht gänzlich leise Spülmaschine ist etwas weniger gut zu hören)@6Vgemessen: 40dBsubjektiv: absolut akzeptables, sanftes Dauerrauschen (in ruhigem Raum hörbar, aber dauerhaft problemlos zu akzeptieren)

Ho comprato wuesto kilt ventole per montarle insieme centralina, diciamo che a bassissimo costo si ha un sistema di ventilazione centralizzato (con una trentina di euro totali) e devo dire che non sono particolarmente rumorose e funzionano bene. Fanno il loro, le ricompreró per build future dove non c'è particolare bisogno di led.

Ideal affordable cooling solution for my PC which, since I installed a new GPU was greatly overheating. Now I’m getting vastly lowered temps with these fans.Popped these in which was easy, three on the front as intake, two added to top rear for more exhaust, on top of the rear exhaust that was already there. You will need separate fan controller or splitter if you only have a couple of fan connectors on your motherboard, or your case hasn’t come with a controller.Noisy at full pelt, but once I got them dialled into a good fan curve they are very quiet at lower rpms. Will see how they fair over time, but overall v happy with these.
