Arctic P12 Slim PWM PST 120mm Fan

Output Noise

I use a Class 1 Bruel & Kjaer 2270 G4 sound analyzer equipped with a Type 4955a microphone with a dBA-weighted dynamic range of below 6 dBA and up to 110 dBA. All tests are conducted inside a hemi-anechoic chamber with a noise floor close to 6 dBA and an ambient temperature of 25–28 °C. The test subject is placed a meter from the sound analyzer.

Full & 70% Speed

Noise output is low enough at full and 70% of its max speed.

Speed (Percentage) – Noise

I use a different setup to drive the fan for noise measurements, so there might be a difference in the readings of the Longwin machine, especially in the max fan speed reading.
