I actually bought this fan set 4-5 years ago, the price is about the same and the fans have been working really well this whole time. I've moved them into 3 different cases and I've still not had any issues. I do recommend them if you just need fans to move air.

My experience with them is the complete opposite, unfortunately. I bought a pack back in March last year to use as case fans in one of my home servers and they're rubbish. Four of them are clipping really bad at anything above ~550 rpm. I don't know when it started but I noticed it in late December when I was doing some maintenance/cleaning on several of my computers. I don't care about them failing, like Jay said they're almost disposable. But their performance is worse than having some tiny pet mouses coughing at your heatsinks.

They are not the OG Antec that we all knew and loved. They failed to keep up with the market and went downhill after being purchased by some Taiwanese company in the 2010s. It was disappointing as I had both LANBoy I and II cases, multiple TruePower Trio and Earth Watt PSUs for my old AMD Athlon XP builds that I still use to this day. Even had their PSU tester and various LED fans that were single color LEDs in the 2005 era.

I love how so many people just mention the Arctic P12 or P14. Those are really good fans. Especially when considering the price. When the Fractal Design R6 came out I bought it and was really disappointed in the fans it came with. They pushed no air and when maxed out at 1000rpm where really loud and annoying. Then I wanted to replace them with some Noctua's but then I saw the price for the Noctua ones and researched a bit more thus I found the Arctic ones. I love the P14's I bought. The noise dropped, they moved more air even at really low rpm so much so that the temperatures for the GPU, CPU and VRM of the motherboard dropped by 10C compared to the Fractal ones at max rpm. Yes the Arctic ones running at lower rpm beat the Fractal ones at max rpm, and by a lot.
IMO you can also just go with the 5 pack of Arctic P12’s for $35, and still have 4 pin PWM control, and they are also pretty quiet and perform well. Edit: A ton of other comments already pointed this out too

used arctic ARGB for my friends budget build 36$ 3 pack for now working fine and quiet
I bought and used these in my first build. They're still running today. They did pick up some noise but their ability to move air never diminished. Definitely recommend as well, especially if you're staying away from RGB. First time, on a budget build? DEFINITELY recommend these. As a side note, after such an agreeable experience with these fans, I've considered the Antec name in other products.
+1 to the recommendations for the Arctic PWM 5-pack. Bought a pack when the fan bearings on my Corsair AIO wore out and to add some extra airflow to my gpu. Pleased with the price, build quality, performance, and noise.
I did a refresh on my aging system last summer and put 4 of these in my case. I chose them because the price was right, I recognized the name, and they weren't some weird color like brown and beige. Yeah, they felt a little cheap in the hand (as you'd expect) but I was surprised at how well they seemed to move air and how quiet they were. The white blades reflect what little light I do have going on in there, which I think looks pretty classy.

Never a bad idea to have 1 fan in reserve.
Going through the Amazon price history is pretty cool. In 2019 these hit Amazon at $45, spent most of their life at$25, before hitting $20 in June of 2020. Jan 31, 2023 saw them drop to $18 before the Jay bump shot them back up to $25 on Feb 4th at 2 AM
I actually love white blade fans. I specifically prefer black frame and white blade, the look of it while spinning somehow looks great in my black case.
More fan videos! (Or just videos like this in general). I learned things I didn’t know about airflow, static pressure, and fan bearings. That’s why I enjoy watching your channel Jay. You explain HOW things work. Thank you!
Heck yeah! Luv fans like this, always helps when on a budget for when helping out friends and family do upgrades and repairs.
Also in regard to the 15V on the fan. I am a design engineer and work in the automotive industry. Our motors are rated for 12V (car battery) but are tested and will work with 9V-16V so I am sure some fans are capable to work in those kind volt ratings as well.

I have tested that with different chargers. It works.
I will stick with Arctic P12s for a long time tbh. They are bit more expensive (Tip: Arctic constantly makes discounts in eBay through its own shop If you buy at least 4 of them without the packaging and screws). Independent testing showed that P12s are pretty much as good as Noctua NF A12s, while being just a bit louder at high RPMs and having a slight noise from the rotor. On the plus side, they sell them in black and white, each one with either solid or color matched trasparent blades. Also: Gigabyte motherboards are known to be tricky sometimes with DC fans, most of the time the motherboard isn't able to regulate voltage, so they stay either completely off or at 12V.

I had Antec's Prizm fans in my old case, they were cheap at the time, like 10 bucks a fan I think, came in a 5 pack. Looked awesome with the RGB rings, moved plenty of air. But they were kind of loud compared to what I use now, Thermaltake's Toughfan 12s (clone of Noctua's NF-A12x25). I have been considering going back because I kind of miss the RGB, and the rings on the Prizms looked really good.

-- They're still around. Thanks for the info. Not big into all sorts of LEDs on my case, but it does take 10, 120mm fans (not that I'm filling them all). Just needed three exhaust on the roof, one for another rig, and one backup. Perfect. Ordering them.

I was already looking at arctic white bladed fans in both pressure and flow depending on where they'd go, these will be added to the option list. Thank you
My goto fans are Arctic P12 fans. They move around 66CFM, good static pressure, and can easily be daisy chained. They cost about $32 for a 5 pack, that's about $6.50 a fan. I can't think of anything else to use than those for very cheap fans.

My first case was from Antec in 1998. I might still have it if not for its front ports being USB 1.0 and if I had known what I was doing well enough to not have worn out the screw holes for its side panel. And I only recycled a fan from it last year because it was a slower speed rate fan than ones I have now. Antec makes quality products that can last for years.
Arctic p12 pst or non pst are also a great budget fan. I've used them lots and they do a great job without breaking the bank.

I bought the 4-pin RGB variant 3 pack of the Antec F12 in june of 2021 for $24.99 and they're still quiet and still working without issue. I was originally just looking to replace one dead lian li fan and ended up installing all 3 - it's surprising how much of a difference even a couple budget fans will bring. Can attest they do look at little wobbly, but especially with the non-RGB ones, you're never gonna notice once it's in.
My custom watercooling PC is equiped with 10 Arctic P12 and for 25€ a pack of 5, it's a steal. Yes it's not as silent or efficient with radiators compared to a Noctua, but it gets the job done perfectly
I went for a budget option for my (similarly budget) case, buying a set of $4-$5 120mm fans made by a Polish company called SilentiumPC. These ones though use a 4-pin PWM connector, and each fan has a secondary male 3-pin plug, letting you chain them together and plug multiple fans into a single header on the mobo. They also reach almost 2500 RPM according to Fan Control, which is pretty decent. Perfectly sufficient for my build, although they do get noticeably loud at around 50-60%, and above 80% are just downright noisy. But for that price, I'm very happy. Budget gear can be pretty damn good.

I bought a set of 5 for my daughters PC that I built for her a while back. I got a set of 5 Prism series 120mm fans. These have been great for her computer. Spent about $60 because of the rainbow vomit, so it broke down to about $12 per fan. A little more than the fans you are talking about in this video. But I actually have a similar set on order for my current build to move more air in it as I am running an air cooled 5900x
Not only are those fans still available but they also are in black now. As well as a little more you can get them with a colored led. As for the voltage they probably can do upto 24v since most stuff like that is actually designed as far as I know to run from around 9v to 24v sometimes up to the low 30s. Its the cheapos that cant or the modern overpriced stuff (surprise, overengineer something it becomes less flexible!) XD. Oh and a note on measuring the cfm, dont worry about trying to be super accurate. One fan to another can vary so wildly that being precise doesnt matter and ballparking it for us is probably more accurate. Only time it needs to be precise is if you are testing the manufactures' claims (which is really more a gamers nexus thing), I think for what you are doing/trying to show, this setup is perfect. (Also please keep making content like this!)
I still have a few Antec cases, that still work just fine, even with modern day hardware and power supplies, and the are 20 year plus old. Great sleeper cases! 👍🤠
I remember reviewing a Rosewill RFX-80 fan, they were $4.99 and had dual ball bearings, I had some last over 10 years. They also had the RFX-120 which was $7.99 at the time. It seems they mostly stopped selling them, but I was one of the first to review them and only 10+years later did any of them fail, was a pretty good deal I think.
Reminds me of guys with a successful car dyno and they go for just for a "leetle" more boost. My first time seeing a 12v fan go 15v. Very fun. For the price, I will pick up a pack of these to just have available. You can't have too many 120mm fans on hand!
thanks for the fans! i needed some for my sisters and dads builds also thanks for uploading in 4k
I ordered some early in the video. I have bought them before but had forgotten about them. They are in a grandson's PC and still work fine. It has only been like 6 or 7 months, they are in a cheap case that has mounts for 3 fans in the front and 2 on the PSU cover/cage. When it's late and noise is low, you still can't hear his PC but the temps are low. This box is for another PC give away, it's OLD (FX8350 with GTX 970) but will have a 22" 1080p display (that came with my Dell SFF I run my 7D2D server on) and mouse and keyboard for free to someone (LOCALLY). Deals like this help keep the cost down, thanks.
These are my go to fans in my builds. Usually 3 up front and one in rear and one up top. I don't liquid cool so I take advantage of those top vents.
I have a bunch of Antec RGB fans in some of my cases. They are my go-to for people who need a more budget PC. They have 120 and 140mm fans that look the same too, which is rare to find now and days.
Good company. I had these fans on my old build. They still run great. Their customer service is great too. One time, I had an 80 plus bronze PSU from them that died within warranty and they replaced it with an 80 plus platinum lol
My exhaust fan in my case is an Antec it is 7 years old and still runs quietly and exactly as expected. It isn't the new hotness but it gets the job done.
I'm actually upgrading my case right now. Due to it being ancient and poorly optimized for thermals and this is literally perfect as I only have 3 working very LOUD fans. If these are as quiet as they seem, I'll be a very happy camper for the price.
Been rockin' these for a couple years now, still super quiet and I live in a high dust environment(3 kids, 2 dogs and the odd cat that follows a dog through the dog door).
Used to use those Antec fans in alot of my systems, especially with the Antec 300 Case. 5 Fans filled up all 5 spots in the case.
Just got my first 27in 1440p 144Hz display! Now I can see all your skin pores! Awesome! Also I do use fans from this brand for my 3D printer, they are fine.
Your probes as your voltage surprise makes me laugh; I like videos like this, lots of test hardware.
I'm still running 2 of the 3 original Fractal fans that came with my Arc Midi from 2011. It can be surprising how much life these basic fans can give.
I had some Cougar brand Hydro Dynamic Bearing fans in my last PC that ran for 5 years, no issue. They still work fine. Fluid bearings aren't bad. They just need to be quality made fans.
Looks like for a budget build they would be FANtastic!
I have a Antec case and I use the front fans and the header that came with it and they all work fine. Mine are RGB but still 3 pin and fairly quiet in my DF700.
Oh lol bought that exact box a few weeks ago. Great to have around.
on a similar note, i recently built my dad a workstation desktop PC on a budget. I used the Zalman T6 case (great budget case, by the way) but it only had one 120mm fan installed with the case. I bought fans from an Amazon brand called "uphere", and i got a 3-pack of their 120mm fans for only 10.99! They're only 3-pin fans like these, come in both black AND white models, and get up to 2200 rpm at only 19dbA, with a claimed 38CFM, which is very impressive for how cheap they were. And truth be told, once I installed them in the system and set up fan curves for them, had you not known better, you wouldn't ever know the fans were under $4 a piece.
I bought a 5 pack of antec white RGB fans a while ago. I really like them. Quiet, they move a good amount of air, and didn't break the bank. Only problem I have is that I only have enough room for 4 fans in my case

I got the ones marketed under the Arctic brand (same frame same color same thing different name I guess) almost 5 years ago and they are still running A-ok in my case which I don't dust off as often as I should. Good stuff.
These sort-of remind me of the Phanteks MP fan design and those happen to always wobble too (at least every one I have does it). Antec also had a 120 fan that looked similar to the Arctic P12 for like 6 dollars and it was pretty nice too.

This came at the best time, i was looking to update my fans and was dreading it. I dont need the latest and greatest so these will last while i save for a new system.
I just ordered a pack those fans on January 31st from Amazon for the front intake of some cases at work that only have a 92mm exhaust fan. Haven't installed them yet.
Fluid bearing for that price? Sounds like a good deal to me! I'm more focused on sound than anything so if they are quiet then it definitely sounds like a win.
The build I did last year was a lot of Corsair fans, next build or as I replace enough of the fans I will replace with led strips. Even if your fans last year at 4$ or 6$ is still better then 30$ or more. Like jay said prices on Egbert fans is crazy.
Bought these during the pandemic, when I built my first ever PC. They are still going strong, excellent value !

I have been using Arctic F12 and P12 type fans for similar reasons. I can get a 5 pack on amazon just under $30, and they work well.

I love my Arctic fans too
Perfect opportunity to talk about fan blades:) learned something new!
I had a corsair Air540 (the big cube case) which had 7 3pin thermaltake Riing fans in. Controlled them all with a 6 channel fan controller in one of the drive slots. Really nice way of doing it. Playing games? Slide them up!
actually not a bad deal at all! antec and uphere is starting to make some great moves in the budget market!
I've been using Antec products my entire computer life, starting out with the Chassis, PWS, and now fans. Great company, just like Seasonic (PWS)
This is why I love J2C, I thought while watching the video, what if I pass more voltage into the fans, and boom, Jays does it.
I like the Arctic P14 Argb, those are insane value.
