reviews (it's not amazing, not bad for a single tower but the thermalright PS120SE is only $7 more and the PA120SE is only $5 more. If you've got high profile, RGB DIMMs this may be a good option. Was gonna make a tech news thread but it's not as big a deal as the LF3

From the review I saw, it's not amazing and it's kinda expensive. 

I've been using computers since around 1978, started learning programming in 1980 on Apple IIs, started learning about hardware in 1990, ran a BBS from 1990-95, built my first Windows PC around 2000, taught myself malware removal starting in 2005 (also learned on Bleeping Computer), learned web dev starting in 2017, and I think I can fill a thimble with all that knowledge. 😉 I'm not an expert, which is why I keep investigating the answers that others give to try and improve my knowledge, so feel free to double-check the advice I give.

My phone's auto-correct is named Otto Rong.🤪😂

What makes this product sus is that Arctic doesn't even publish (on paper or online) the airflow and static pressure. I looked at their website, at Amazon, at their tech specs PDF and at the box for it - nothing. I'm starting to regret buying it to review. I guess they're still embarrassed after the debacle of the Freezer 35.

Hmm that is strange, especially for Arctic who are normally upfront with specs.

 

Curious to see how it reviews.

Nothing special. They also don't publish the dBA. I think I saw something on their website a couple of weeks ago where they referenced a reviewers results to show how "good" it is. Sigh.

What's even more disturbing is the fact that at least SOME of the specs for the Arctic LF3 used to be easy to find but by the time I put it in my inventory, some of that info had become scarce...Or maybe I was looking in the wrong closet.
