I didn't buy this fan here at Galaxus, but directly from Arctic. What can I say? Yes, the part really does blow a lot of air with its max. approx. 3,300 rpm, but that is also associated with a clear background noise. I replaced the P12 Max with a defective bequiet! Silent Wings 3 as a system fan (at the back) in a bequiet! Silent Base 800 case. It does its job really well and runs absolutely quietly and inaudibly in idle (i.e. desktop mode). Only from about 2,000 RPM can it be heard in an absolutely quiet room in a silent case. But if the speed rises above 2,200-2,300 RPM, it becomes increasingly louder and you can hear it clearly. At/on max. RPM (at approx. 3,200 RPM) it makes quite a racket, but that hardly ever happens in its intended use as a case fan. On CPU fans and radiators, however, it may look different.
My conclusion: As a pure case fan, an Arctic P12 or F12 is also sufficient. On coolers or radiators, it manages a few degrees Celsius less, but that is then also associated with a clear background noise, depending on the fan curve setting.

So far I am satisfied with the results.
Previously I had set a TTL at 88°C with the Kaze Flex fans, so I am now a whole 19°c cooler.
Attached is a picture of the results I tested, as well as a link to a fan database conversation on Igorslab.

I highly recommend it for those who only have PW4 connections on their motherboard. This product works perfectly.
