PC Peripherals Best alternative for Arctic P12 PWM

Ssreek

Adept
Arctic fans seem no longer in stock, esp P12 PWM.
I am not saying these are the best, flaws do exist, but these were touted as vfm.

Are there any alternatives or better fans available for a budget (~500-900)?
Less noise (not talking about silent), good cfm and static pressure.
 
imho unfortunately there are none ...the next best thing is NF-A12x25 but again they are costly. what is your usage??? case fan or CPU cooler ? if it is lateral then i would suggest go for a better cooler rather than fans. if its the former then you can get NZXT Aer RGB 2 140mm . I have currently having AER F 120mm + CORSAIR Air Series AF120 ....no noise issues .

 
You should look into deepcool fk120’s i am not sure if they are available as individual units but i bought in set of 3 for around 2500. Very much satisfied with them

2500 means 833 per fan without rgb or any lighting. Cooler master has Sickleflow 120, and it is 650 per fan for no rgb fans.
There seem to be good competitors in this price now, but I don't think those companies are manufacturing new ones anymore. Hence, we are not seeing them in regular stock or popularity.
Has the industry thought there is no longer need for fans or everybody is only buying argb fans, no idea.

Silverstone air blazer 120r can be had for at similar price to p12. They also have better performance and the LEDs have separate 3 pin connector.
Will look into it, that cfm is huge.
