I just bought 4 because of the good value and high airflow. From my experience, this noise is noticeable when setting at 100% fan speed(@1800rpm), but the fan is very quiet when you set at 70% and there is still strong airflow.
And I think it is better for those who are living in Brisbane and Sydney and can pick up. The price is not so sweet when you add delivery.
does that means P12 better than cooler master?
i calculate my postage is around $9 for 3 units of these cooler masters.. windering if i should cancel my amazon ones and get this instead. any advise, folks ? Thanks you
I just update my experience, you can have a look now. I do care about the noise and airflow, not RGB, so it just fit my condition.
The P12s are better for sure, fan stats on paper are pretty much meaningless.
I've had these a couple of years ago. Correct on the high air flow and not really that noisy at 60 70%. The static pressure is very low so definitely don't use them to push air through a radiator/AIO.
This model is released in 2 years, it may be not the one you have. And it has the same fan blade shape as those come with cooler master water cooling. I think it maybe better on a radiator, but anyway I just use them as case fans.
yes the price is great, how bad can it be for so cheap?
for me, sickcleflow went straight to the junk box, just too noisy
i suppose it's ok for someone whos never had a noctua fan before :)
They're not bad for the money (esp if you tone down the RPM) - granted the ones I used were a while ago and they may have changed over time.
Realistically, they are $12 fans at full price and shouldn't compete with $40 Noctuas.
yea. for sure.
unfortunately the price is the only thing they have going for them.
maybe if you always wear headphones or noisy environment.
just sharing my experience with sickleflow to help others decide, i like silent PC and wouldnt use it if it was free.
have a good day
The new ones are that bad? My old ones weren't super quiet, but they weren't particularly bad.
(good info, if so. Wouldn't have assumed they were worse than before)
@Erwark: They are quiet from my experience, I put my case on the ground, and I can only hear them when I play games. I feel the new one with 1800rpm is quieter than the old one with 2000rpm.
Add delivery and then you're just better off getting the Arctic P12s, if the wait from UK isn't an issue.
