with its low noise and efficient air-moving capabilities.
Despite the already affordable price, it still finds a way to add more value by featuring Arctics PST.
This daisy-chaining technology makes fan control, cable management, and installation much easier.

I cant think of a PC fan that provides a better bang for your buck.
I wanted fans that had no RGB, but had the highest performance for the money.
Thats when I remembered the Arctic P12, an affordable fan that looked cool and did some serious cooling.
The Arctic P12 PWM PST is a pressure-optimized computer fan that operates as quietly and as powerfully as high-end fans. It features controllable fan speeds with PWM and can be daisy-chained with Arctic’s PWM Sharing Technology (PST), enabling you to control multiple fans with one PWM header without the need for a fan hub or splitters.
The boxes were simple.
It contained just the fans and four screws for each fan.
The QR code heading directly to an installation guide is also highly appreciated.

The fans felt hefty and strong, despite being all plastic.
A sleek, matte black finish on everything with a cable thats reasonably long.
And finally, two to replace the stock fan for the CPU cooler.

Thanks to Arctics PST, I only needed to use three PWM headers to control all eight fans.
Every fan was spinning and I could barely hear anything.
In addition to its low noise, its sound is low-pitched, making it less sensitive to the ears.

For performance, my Ryzen 9 3900x with 12 cores runs hot under full load.
It ran at 85 C in the stress test at 100% load.
With the Arctic P12, it ran no more than 76 C under full load.

If you need RGB or a white fan, Arctic has those as well.
High-performance, silent with a low pitch, and very affordable?
