What is PWM arctic?
The PWM function allows the motherboard to run the fan precisely at its necessary speed. This guarantees the required cooling and minimises the noise level.
How do you control the speed of an Arctic fan?
Option 1: Fan setting in BIOS Select the Fan that you want to adjust and to display the fan duty curve line in fan operating windows. Select DC or PWM control according to your fan type. Click and drag the duty points to adjust the fan speed.
What does PWM PST mean?
PWM Sharing Technology
Arctic’s PWM case fans are a little different to normal PWM fans. This is thanks to the patented PST (PWM Sharing Technology). The PST feature allows up to five of these fans to be daisy chained together, meaning the motherboard can power and regulate all five fans from one PWM fan header from the motherboard.
Is Arctic P12 good?
The P12 PWM PST is a good, solid built fan. With only five blades I am confident that it will run quieter than those with seven or more blades. Of course, this will depend on the speeds. The fan is perfect for the “no frills” people.
How many Arctic fans Can I daisy chain?
Typically, this is 1 A. Since the F12 PWM PST fans draw 0.24 A maximum, you would not want to chain more than 4 fans from a single header. (If your header provides more amperage, e.g. up to 2 A, you could chain more, but be absolutely sure what the rating is before you do.)
What is PST connection?
pst files to let users maintain a copy of their messages on their local computers. The . pst files also serve as a message store for users who don’t have access to an Exchange Server computer (for example, POP3 or IMAP email users). pst file is a file-access-driven method of message storage.
Is a 3 pin fan PWM?
These fans are also called 3-pin fans, as they come with 3 pins: a supply pin (usually 12 V DC), a ground pin, and a signal pin. PWM fans are DC fans with an extra wire for PWM. PWM fans are 4-pin fans, where the fourth wire sends a PWM signal to the fan motor. The PWM signal is the control input of the PWM fan.
