Most silent Arctic fans?

Hey guys! I was thinking recently of changing the fans that came with my pc. Im mostly looking at Arctic as an option since it s the most affordable and efficient brand available in my country.

I ve heard that the P12/P14 PROs have a weird rattling noise when reaching higher speeds and that concerned me cause Im looking for someting as silent as possible.

Ps: Im kinda new to this so im not that knowlegeable abt RPM/PWM/PST...

Corsair 4000D Airflow case, 5 fan front mounted ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 360, and a 5070 TI squeezed in just barely - Fans fit great in between the front panel

Thankfully bought most of this stuff at the beginning of 2025, and finally got around to taking pictures of my radiator "It does fit" setup. Used the shorter screws on the front fans or else it would have pushed out too far preventing the mesh and front panel from laying flat. The mesh cannot be more than its thickness and as flat against the fans as possible or it might prevent the front panel from laying flat.

Using the quiet curves from Arctic. Though the lower fan set to 20-30% higher in its curve than the others cause the GPU sucks so much and pulls in air from the back. Trying to get the lower push/pull fans matters to move more air in for it cause I KNOW it definitely matters 100% right?😆

9800x3d... and I know its overkill, but I have never used an AIO before and i wanted to this time and it stays easily at 60c at heavy load

Measured best I could and made the bends around the front fans, stuck magnets on, and plopped it over the fans. Front panel rests perfect with basically no room between it and the mesh
