Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB vs Enermax SquA RGB: Comparison

Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB vs Enermax SquA RGB airflow compared

On airflow the spread is 30%, Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB 48 CFM against Enermax SquA RGB 68.27 CFM, so Enermax SquA RGB takes it. Lighting connector is not the same on both, Proprietary on the Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB versus 3-Pin 5V ARGB on the Enermax SquA RGB. Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB also leads on max speed, 2300 RPM on the Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB versus 1500 RPM on the Enermax SquA RGB. They differ on lighting too, ARGB on the Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB versus RGB on the Enermax SquA RGB.

Who each one is for

The Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB is the one to take for budget ARGB builds needing real static pressure and filtered intake or light radiator duty, though it is the wrong buy for maximum LED density/lighting showcases and extreme-restriction radiators. The Enermax SquA RGB suits quiet RGB case builds and high-airflow intake/exhaust, though it is not built for high static pressure radiator duty and extreme overclocking rigs. Our rating of the Arctic BioniX P120 A-RGB (8/10): budget-friendly ARGB that doesn't sacrifice Arctic's static-pressure performance to get there. Our rating of the Enermax SquA RGB (8/10): A quiet, high-airflow RGB fan that punches above its price point for general case use.

Where the two are identical

Everything else lines up. Fan size, pwm control, rgb lighting, lighting type and colorway read the same on both, so those are not worth weighing. They match on 1 further specification as well.
