ARCTIC
ARCTIC P12 Pro 120mm PWM Fan Black - 3000 RPM, FDB
The ARCTIC P12 Pro is a 120mm PWM fan engineered for systems that need high static pressure in confined spaces—radiators, perforated panels, and mesh filters. It delivers 77 CFM and 6.9 mmH₂O static pressure while running at just 25 dB(A), making it suitable for builders who want cooling performance without noise.
Why this product
High static pressure for restricted airflow
At 6.9 mmH₂O, it pushes air effectively through radiators and mesh filters where standard fans lose efficiency.
Quiet operation at full load
Reaches 25 dB(A) at maximum speed thanks to a hydrodynamic bearing and extended shaft that minimise vibrations.
Automated balancing for consistency
Precision balancing compound application ensures smooth rotation and reduces motor noise across the speed range.
PWM speed control from near-standstill
Spins down to effectively 0 rpm below 5% PWM signal, giving fine-grained thermal management without discrete steps.
- Size120 mm
- Maximum speed3000 rpm
- Airflow77 CFM (131 m³/h)
- Static pressure6.9 mmH₂O
- Noise level25 dB(A)

- SKUARC-3530
- EAN4895265000690
- 4-pin PWM motherboard headers and standalone PWM controllers
- 120mm mounting holes on case frames, radiators, and tower coolers
- 600–3000 rpm variable speed; no single fixed speed
- Operates from 3.3 V DC minimum; standard 12 V DC typical. Verify your PSU or controller can supply 0.33 A per fan
Best for
- CPU and GPU radiator cooling in SFF and dense builds
- Case intake and exhaust where airflow restriction is unavoidable
- Quiet systems that cannot tolerate >25 dB(A) at load
Trade-offs
- Open-air or unobstructed mounting where airflow is the sole priority; static pressure advantage is wasted
- Applications requiring fixed-speed operation; PWM duty cycle must be actively managed
- Environments warmer than 40 °C or colder than 0 °C
Thanks to high static pressure, the Pro fans move air effectively through tight spaces. This makes them ideal for radiators, perforated panels, and mesh filters.
Revised fan blade design for an optimal balance of performance and smooth operation.
A hydrodynamic bearing combined with an extended shaft ensures quieter operation by improving pressure distribution and minimizing vibrations.
An automated measuring and balancing process ensures exceptional precision and smooth performance by applying the balancing compound with pinpoint accuracy.
Reduces motor noise, compensates for load fluctuations, and protects against inrush currents and reverse polarity.
The fan delivers more performance at low speeds with higher airflow and static pressure at just 25 dB(A) – ideal for quiet, powerful cooling.
Enables higher static pressure and maximum airflow efficiency.
