Erm No they're not they're usually listed with max Current draw not max Watts my own Asus Strix X570F - F Gaming Tuff X470 and Strix X670E - E Gaming Wifi all list it as Max Current Draw in Amps in their manuals I've also seen the same in several Gigabyte mobo's that I've installed for customers

Thankfully they're all DC fans so max power is just 12x the stated max current, Case fans have been 12V since before I started working on PC hardware 30+ years ago.

I already know that but apparently VSG is not conversant with mobo manuals stating Volts/Amps per fan header not Volts/Watts or they state all 3 as in 12V:: 1.2A:: 14.4W.

I think the most interesting Shark force is the SF160, not the 12cm
For the 12cm? I rather buy a pile of Arctic P12 Max... but the SF160 is also well less than 20$ in china (where I usually get my stuff from, I dont live in China). So why its 30usd in US is baffling
In fact, for the price of SF120 I can almost buy the 12cm version of the LCP fan (ProArtist HF12) I posted in a thread previously

Or for less, a Jungle Leopard P1 which is also a 12cm LCP fan. It's made by Fluence Technology in China which is the OEM facing company of PCCooler

(All 3 fans here are LCP)
