| Dedicated to operate 24 hours a day, 7 days per week, the F PWM CO series case fans cool your computer system quietly. The fan forwards the PWM signal from the CPU to the whole case ventilation system. Employing a Japanese dual ball bearing, the fan operates with reduced friction and hence its lifespan is substantially extended. The series offers you with superb performance while maintaining your computer systems under optimal temperature at all times. | ||
 | | |
 | Continuous Operation "CO" stands for Continuous Operation and makes the case fans suitable for PCs with non-stop operation like servers. This feature is brought by the Japanese dual ball bearing used in the fans, which reduces rotational friction, meaning it is less sensitive to dust and high temperature and hence is up to 5 times more durable than generic or modified bearings. | |
| Constantly Silent Thanks to the dual ball bearing and the patented fan holder design, the F PWM CO series is not only quiet, but also long-lasting. |  | |
 | Quick and Easy Setup Via a single PWM signal, the CPU fan is controlled by the mainboard to maintain the ideal temperature of the CPU. The patented PST (PWM Sharing Technology) forwards the PWM signal to all other fans within the system so that all fans are spinning at the same speed. Such mechanism ensures silent operation when it is idle, but also gives sufficient performance when the demand comes. | |

For MobileS : F14 / F14 PWM
A 140 mm stock CoolerMaster fan at high speed has about the same CFM value of F14 at mid speed, this is an excellent point for ARCTIC fan.
Radeon 3D : F14 PWM
ARCTIC released a very quiet and great case fan called F14 PWM.
Hardbloxx : F12 PWM and F12 PRO PWM
"F12 PWM : High level performace at a low noise level."
"F12 PRO PWM : Very silent at 12 V. Below 12 V the noise level is so low that it can't be heard."
Testfreaks : F8 PRO & F12 PRO
These case fans are very quiet and offer a very good value for the money. They will do a very good job keeping your computer running cool.
PC3 : F14 PWM
The new F14 PWM with 14cm fan performs superb cooling performance, normally with bigger size of fan, the noise level will increase, however by using Fluid Dynamic Bearing technique, this fan has a really silent operation.
PCT Reviews : F9 PWM CO & F12 PRO PWM
"12 Pro PWM is a solid case fan; it provides a considerable amount of airflow all while operating at an extremely low noise level."
"This is by far the best little 92mm fan we have tested and we enjoyed everything about it. We still can't get over of how quiet the Arctic F9 PWM CO fan is."
Ninjalane : F12 TC, F12 PRO, F12 PRO PWM & F12 PRO TC
The fans move a surprisingly good amount of air.
Hardware.info : F8 PRO & F9
The ARCTIC fans win among other case fans in the "silent" category. With the rubber attachments which prevent resonance, the ARCTIC fans obtain an excellent result pretty fat ahead of the rest.
Modding: F12 & F12 PRO
ARCTIC F12 and F12 Pro are very affordable but also offers good performance in our tests. Its cooling efficiency is almost comparable with some expensive fans, and even outperformed some of them. We give this the "Recommend Award".
Hardmodding : F12
In our roundup test, ARCTIC F12 series fans have demonstrated excellent cooling performance while remaining silent at maximum RPM speed. We especially like the unique anti-vibration system in the Pro series to help eliminate vibration noise. We give it 10 points, the perfect score for a perfect product.
KitGuru : F TC Series
ARCTIC F TC Series run very quietly. It shifts a decent amount of air and represents great value for money.
Syndrome-OC: F12 Pro TC
The rubber mountings on the fan frame on ARCTIC F12 Pro TC are very thoughtful as they eliminate noise from possible vibration. When the fan is at load, it is able to remain nearly inaudible. The control probe is very accurate in detecting the internal temperature as well. For such quality and MSRP price, we highly recommend this product!
HW Review Labs : F9 TC & F12 Pro TC
The case fans are built with high-quality materials and they can maintain low noise levels while providing adequate airflow. The TC sensor is very useful to obtain optimal silence and airflow at the same time.
Cooling Technique : F12 TC & F12 Pro TC
"The performance in ARCTIC F12 Pro TC is surprising in several aspects. We like the high-quality design, especially the anti-vibration fan frame. Also, its high static pressure at a low noise level makes the cooling performance very efficient."
"ARCTIC F12 TC is a high-quality case fan made with good-quality materials. The fan is well-balanced in terms of its airflow and noise. Its low price is very inviting for such performances. "
Orthy.de : F12, F12 PWM & F12 TC
"The ARCTIC F12 offers great airflow at low noise at a rock-bottom price."
"The ARCTIC F12 PWM offers with the PST a very convenient opportunity to control the fan via the BIOS. The Fan is one of the cheapest in our roundup but is able to compete with the top. Specially the low noise over the complete speed range is pleasant."
"The new ARCTIC F12 TC excells, as the other fans of hte F series from ARCTIC by its extremely silent operation noise while still offering a high airflow. The temperature-control is quick and the fan speed range is large."
Radeon 3D: F8 PWM
Arctic Cooling hat mit der Arctic F12 PWM Serie, leise aber auch zugleich Leistungsstarke Lüfter entwickelt, welche durch die PWM Sharing Technologie hervorragend das gesamte System optimal belüften und konnten dabei in unserem Test die besten Temperaturen erzielen. Dank des recht günstigen Preises und der erzielten Temperatur und Lautstärkewerten, vergeben wir den Preis-/Leistungs-Award.
