The "news" here is that Arctic somehow thought releasing the P12 Max in only black last year was a good idea!

They're good fans, I like them - I'm just not sure offering them in white is really worth a news article though. If we had "news" for every time a product got a new colour, we'd basically just have a stream of non-events that would completely bury any actual news.

I guess this is "a slow news" day :)

And please, someone call me when they release a fan that is actually 100% all "white" (which these are NOT), without those silly black rings and silver logo :D

The tech to turn shadows white is around the corner with AI and Quantum computers. Just wait a lil bit.

The switch to fluid dynamic bearing in the white version was newsworthy, I had to return my original P12 Max fans because the dual ball bearing was noisy even at a low RPM.

Ohhh, so Arctic had the fluid dynamic bearing in the black P12 Max fans but ball bearings in the white P12 Max fans? Man, that's both stupid and dishonest. I now understand the point of the information. Having said that, I find it strange that dual ball bearing fans would make a lot of noise because even the rifle bearings in my Cooler Master Sickleflow fans have been noiseless for the past five years. Back when I bought them, Sickleflow fans were some of the best out there because they moved a lot of air without a lot of noise. Looking at these Arctic fans, maybe I should consider switching because I have a server-sized supertower case and I need fans with a high CFPH rating because there's A LOT of air in it to move.

No, the other way around, they switched to FDB in the white version.

Yes, that's what I meant. They had ball bearings in the white ones with FDB in the black but now they have it in both. Yeah, I can see why that would be worth talking about.
