Verdict

Arctic P8 Max

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A genuinely useful fan for cramped SFF builds, but only worth the noise penalty when nothing larger fits.

Cooler Master MasterFan MF120 Prism

6 / 10 Expert Rating

A reasonable mid-tier RGB fan, worth it mainly for the mirror-finish look rather than outright performance.
