Box, Contents & Bundle
The box has a photo of the fan on its face and is sturdy enough to provide reasonable protection for the product.
There are no rubber mounts on the corners for reduced vibrations, but Arctic states that vibrations are minimized thanks to the motor’s design and operation, so rubber mounts are not required. Less vibrations mean less friction, so lower operating temperatures. This means less fan stress, so its lifetime is increased.
Arctic provides a scheme of the bearing. From the shape of the bearing, you can easily figure that this is a rifle bearing and not a fluid dynamic one. Still, it is superior to a plain sleeve bearing, and under normal conditions, it can outlive the extended warranty.

Great review as always, thanx
One small typo on the 2nd site, last sentence. There should be superior.
…not the 1st typo in this exact word … I have two guesses for the reason:
1st: superior in Greek = ανώτερος [anóteros] …phonetically close prefix an ≈ in…. or
2nd: you work too hard (almost every day one YouTube video and one review + other activities) … you should rest more, not just work … in Slovakia we have a saying… work is not a rabbit, it will not run away, it will wait at you … 😊
thank you! No rest for me 🙂
Great work, thanks!
P14 max are available now, do you have plans to test it anytime?
