About the Product
Thanks to PWM technology, the fan speed is controlled by the motherboard, which allows you to achieve the ideal CPU temperature. The PWM signal is sent to all fans in the system and makes their rotational speed approximately equal, which increases the overall cooling efficiency.
The 120mm Arctic Cooling F12 PWM PST fan will amaze you with its incredibly low noise level: at the minimum rotation speed (it is equal to 600 rpm) it is only 13 dB. Even several of these fans operating simultaneously are not capable of producing any noticeable noise.
