Long Service LifeThe Fluid Dynamic Bearing comes with an oil capsule that avoids lubricant leakage. Thus this bearing is as quiet as a sleeve bearing but comes with a significantly higher service life. |
Perfect Case Fan Regulation with PWMThe PWM function allows the motherboard to run the fan precisely at its necessary speed. This ensures the required cooling and minimizes the noise level. |
PWM Sharing Technology (PST) Lowers NoiseIf you want to improve the cooling efficiency of your computer you get several case fans working in parallel (since it takes 10 fans to double the noise level). But what does it help if they don't work together? The PST assures that all of your fans listen to one control signal. E.g. you share the CPU Cooler's PWM signal and assure that your case fans stand down at low load and spin up whenever necessary. |
Two Way InstallationBlow warm air out of the case, draw cool air into your case. |

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
It’s black and white, has no LEDs and isn’t silent (although the F silent range is for lower cooling performance).
It is not noisy though, looks ok if you don’t mind black & white, and supplies good airflow. And all that at a price that is half the amount of comparable performance and sound level equivalents. It also exceeds the performance of others in the same price bracket.
I think that for all the PCs I’ve built, upgraded or refurbished for friends and family in the last 10 years 95% of them have at least 1 Arctic F range in there and they have never failed.
Yes there are better performing fans on airflow and sound levels, but these can be 5 times the cost. And yes if you want a certain look and LEDs these probably won’t meet your needs.
But if you are upgrading stock fans that came with your case, filling up those extra slots or replacing a faulty fan and the look works for you (if even an issue) I don’t think you can beat Arctic’s F range on price v performance.
Specifically on the F14 compared to F12 as you would expect you get increased airflow at lower rpm and therefore lower sound levels.
A good quality buy at a great price and therefore this range remains by go to fan range for general cooling needs.
It's possibly my fault for not reading the description properly, but surprisingly the silent fans are not pwm, they're three pin dc fans. I just assumed everything was pwm by now.
So while they are quiet, they're not actually as quiet as the pwm version which is able to spin at lower rpm, and the pwm version is also able to spin faster and push a lot more air when the system is being pushed hard.
Also a shame that a silent fan just comes with standard screw mounts and not noctua style silicone rubber pull through mounts, or even silicone pads on the corners of the frames, but then again they are cheap.
One thing to note though is that the picture in the description is wrong, that must be the out dated model, the new model has more blades and are more swept back
Why an intake in the top? It's in an inverted-ATX case that places the graphics card near the top of the case upside down with its fans blowing downwards. An Arctic F12 acts as an exhaust fan at the bottom front of the case. It all sounds wrong, but many hours of experimenting have shown this fan configuration to work best in this particular case (pun intended).
My motherboard only supports PWM on the CPU fan header, so I'm having to rely on DC voltage control from a system fan header, hence buying the F14 Silent and not the PWM version. This gives a reliable speed control range of 350 to 800RPM which is far wider than I need as the fan is virtually silent at 600RPM, so I've set this as the minimum speed.
I don't have any means of measuring the fan's output, but I'd guess it's still pushing around 30CFM at 600RPM, and that's sufficient to lower idle system temperature by nearly 10°C. That's a much bigger improvement than I was expecting, so I'm considering this as money very well spent.
Would I recommend it? It is audible at full speed, but if you can control the speed and are happy with around 30CFM of airflow at near silence, yes.
EDIT: I've noticed some buzzy resonance when the fan speed ramps up or down, so if you're a stickler for near-silence, you may be better off using this as a fixed speed fan.
I purchase several versions and sizes and always as described, reliable and perfect for application.
The 140mm F14 shifts alot of air and I use them for cooling in the summer as they are far quieter than standard room fans and consume little electricity.
I run this in the day and the F14 Silent version at night and is barely noticeable as being on.
The chart shows differences between the models so can choose to suit needs.
P series are more efficient but pressure optimised so do not spread the air, rather focus it to a point. This may suit pc and extraction usage better.
