Arctic Cooling released new ARCTIC F Pro PWM fans that run at necessary speed according to the CPU load. Furthermore, thanks to the innovative patented PST function, up to 5 fans (including CPU fans) can be connected to the ARCTIC F Pro PWM fan.
The speed of all the fans in this PST system is now centrally controlled by a single PWM signal via BIOS. As a result, when the system load increases, all fans in the PST system will run faster to lower the case temperature. Likewise, when the load is low, fan speed will be lower at a necessary speed for sufficient cooling.
The advantages of having PST are:
– Control the speed of different fans with only one PWM signal from the motherboard;
– Case ventilation can be achieved in a quiet and efficient way - more fans run slower at low load, which deliver sufficient cooling at a much quieter operation
– Better energy saving as fans are not always at full load.
The Arctic F Pro PWM is available in 80 (F8), 92 (F9) and 120mm (F12) diameter. Fan speeds are 700-2000/ 700-2000/ 400-1500 rpm while airflow is 28, 35, 57CFM respectively.
The ARCTIC F Pro PWM fans come with a 6 year limited warranty. The MSRP is US$6.10 / 4,70€ (F8), US$6.50 / 5,00€ (F9), US$7.70 / 5,90€ (F12).
