Source: arctic.de (verified 2026-07-11) · corroborated by pcpartpicker.com. The ARCTIC official product page confirms the exact model — "P12 PWM PST", 120 mm PWM Fan with Cable Splitter, article ACFAN00120A — and its technical specifications: 200–1800 rpm PWM range, 56.30 cfm airflow, 2.20 mmH2O static pressure, Fluid Dynamic Bearing, 4-Pin Connector + 4-Pin Socket (PWM PST), 120 mm frame with 25 mm height, and 145 g weight; noise is rated only as 0.3 Sone (no dBA figure) and no MTBF hours are given, so both are left null. PCPartPicker corroborates the identical part number ACFAN00120A (single, black) with matching 200–1800 RPM, 56.3 CFM, 2.2 mmH₂O, LED None, and 4-pin PWM connector, and provides the US retail price of $12.99 for the single fan. Because ARCTIC's store lists price only in EUR (€10.49), the sourced USD value is taken verbatim from the PCPartPicker listing.
