Kitguru"Impressive price point"
ARCTIC fans are able to cool the system more quietly than the stock fans which aren't even very loud themselves. This was shown in our testing where we recorded a lower noise level for the system with the ARCTIC fans installed. One of the main advantages of these ARCTIC fans over other low-noise alternatives is the impressive price point that they come in at.
"An excellent price-performance ratio"
This product respects the tradition of ARCTIC, offering excellent performance at a reasonable price. The design of the fan is appealing and the quality of the materials used in the construction of the product is exceptional.
My Garage 
As with the 80 mm fans, it's the ARCTIC fan that performs the best in the "silent" category.
Hardware Info"The best in the "silent" category"
"ARCTIC F12 has a good balance between noise and performance at its 1000 rpm, and its completely inaudible at 800rpm."
DNS
Ideal for users in search of a silent fan for a very low cost.

A 120 mm stock CoolerMaster fan at high speed has about the same CFM value of F12 at mid speed, this is an excellent point for ARCTIC fan.
For MobileS
High level performace at a low noise level.
Hardbloxx.de
ARCTIC products are very silent and I would without any doubt purchase these fans in this competitive market.
UMLan
The F12 series turns out a good alternative to the standard PC case fan. For the price, it's really cheap but the performance went really well in tests.
Modding.lt
The F12 PWM is over 21dB quieter than the Silverstone FM121.
Infobit
The fan is well decorated and the materials used are excellent. And do not forget that it has an engine with FDB technology, which is usually adopted in much more expensive products.
"The price ratio of F12 TC is phenomenal"
