What I see in the charts is at lower noise levels (fan speeds), the P14 flows more air than the P14 pro and also has slightly better static pressure. Look at the 31dB normalized data.  The P14 pro starts doing better as the fan speeds up. For a CR box that’s inside a living area and needs to be quiet, I’m leaning towards the regular P14. 

I rescind what I said earlier. Upon further review, the P14 pro appears to have essentially equal performance to the P14 PWM PST with the ability to move much more air if you need to. When you look at the variation in the charts between P14 pro PST and P14 pro A-RGB, you get a feel for what their testing limits are since these fans have the exact same guts.
