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.

Phanteks M25-140 D-RGB

7 / 10 Expert Rating

A solid, well-matched 140mm companion to the M25-120, best suited to Phanteks-branded builds wanting mixed fan sizes.
