Hello

To start off i have the case Gamemax silent hill h606 and the motherboard is Gigabyte B550M Aorus Elite (one sys_fan slot)

I need new fans because the only cooling i had was on my CPU and one fan on the back of the case(and i have this PC four years)

So i want to get 2 fans to the front

Because i have only one sys_fan slot and i want 2 fans, i need a PWM PST splitter which isnt an issue

That Also means i have to buy fans that are PWM PST(along with some personal stuff i want them to have/not have)

Question is are the ARCTIC P12 Slim PWM PST a good choice? Or does anyone reccomend any other fans that are not expensive?

Links to the parts if anyone wants:

I'm always in favor of Arctic products- they're a great company with great products at the price.

As far as if it will be good enough- any name brand fan will be fine. I've had machines where there are 4 or 5 different brands/models of fans running off splitters and it doesn't make a difference.

The biggest thing is to make sure you have them setup optimally- air should go from front to back and bottom to top in 99% of cases.
