ARCTIC P12 120 mm case fan 1800 RPM black
Pressure-optimised 120 mm fan delivers 56.3 CFM at 1800 RPM with 0.3 Sone noise using a fluid dynamic bearing for heatsinks and radiators
- Pressure-optimised blades push air through radiators and heatsinks
- 1800 RPM delivers 56.3 CFM airflow for strong cooling performance
- 3 Sone rating keeps operation nearly silent at full speed
- Fluid Dynamic Bearing with oil capsule prevents lubricant loss for long life
- German-engineered alloy bearing reduces friction for efficient running
Static-Pressure Optimised 120 mm Fan
The ARCTIC P12 is a 120 mm case fan built for high static pressure, making it well suited to heatsinks and radiators where airflow must push through dense fins. It spins at 1800 RPM and moves 56.3 CFM or 95.65 m³/h at that speed. Noise is rated at 0.3 Sone. The three-pin connector provides simple voltage control.
Fits Standard 120 mm Mounts with Three-Pin Power
The fan uses a common 120 mm frame and a three-pin header, so it drops into any case or cooler designed for that size without adapters. Its pressure-optimised blades handle the restriction of radiator or heatsink fins, freeing airflow that axial fans would lose. The fluid-dynamic bearing with an oil capsule reduces friction and prevents lubricant leakage for consistent operation.
Delivers 56.3 CFM at 1800 RPM for Restricted Paths
At full speed the fan supplies 56.3 CFM, giving ample headroom for single radiators or tower coolers in typical builds. Noise stays low at 0.3 Sone, so it remains unobtrusive even under load. It will not suit situations demanding higher static pressure or airflow beyond these rated figures, nor does it offer PWM control via a four-pin header.

Questions about this item
Will the 1800 RPM speed hold steady on a radiator with high resistance?
The fan is optimised for static pressure, so it maintains airflow even when pushing through dense fin stacks or radiators.
How loud is the 0.3 Sone rating during continuous 1800 RPM operation?
At 0.3 Sone the motor runs near-silent; the fluid-dynamic bearing and oil capsule keep friction noise low over long sessions.
Does the 3-pin connector allow speed control from my motherboard?
A 3-pin header supports voltage-based control; check your board for 3-pin DC or PWM headers to adjust the 1800 RPM limit.
