bit confused, just fitted an Arctic freezer 3 AIO, and was thinking of buying more of the same fans to match in my case, but upon doing a bit of research, it seems they are high pressure fans.

So are they not suitable as case fans ? some ppl seem say no they are not, and others say yes they are.

was only thinking of it, as my current Lian Li Fans have a slightly diff shade of white compared to the fans on the Arctic, so wanted them all the same, things are never simple :D

I'd say that static pressure fans are good for case flow because of restrictions, such as the grill/s or close to objects.
