Noctua NF-A12x15 FLX, Premium Quiet Slim Fan, 3-Pin (120x15mm, Brown)

Can ramp up quickly and is quite loud compared to my other fans. Theres a buzzing noice

I just got bored. I’m not using it till now. Let you know after 100 years

Pros:

Somewhat short review:

not sure if I would get the slim version, unless you need the space in your case; other than that its perfect.

The fan is nearly inaudible. I replaced the cooling fan on an older OTC 600w power supply on my computer. So far the power supply has not had any cooling issues with this fan. You really cant hear this fan unless you turn everything else off. In my case the case fans were much louder. Great product that lives up to its hype.

Noctuas are good, but they are not the best 15mm or less, especially for the premium cost. Good for 15mm, but their 25mm? Maybe worth 15 and might buy at $10. For $20 you can do better, just put in the time to research, this especially includes their 25mm fans. Dont believe everything you hear. The more spent on advertising, the more they charge you. Also, they are listing m3/h not CFM which is 55 which is pretty good for thins. Prolimatech - otta help you get started. Quieter and almost 2 x the CFM for the cost. Sorry, cant tell you my secret 25mm $4 each, but they are out there and I have yet to find a fan better, even their own brand...besides Prolimatech, but for the cost. PM me if you have done your research and are truely at a loss.

very good quality the only thing i wish was that it was a pwm fan.

I tried these but was skeptical in the process mainly because theyre slim... They are made by Noctua though so I figured I could trust it at least given their history and my experience with them in the past. amazingly the things have the same static pressure my noisy not so air pushing across the case Thermaltake RGB fans did for my AIO. I was going to use these fans as push then pull with 3 a12x25 behind them in the front of the case, but I wasnt in the mood of chopping the case up. the manufacturer says yeah a rad fits in top too a 240 mm which i dont see how with standard fans! I found out if your motherboard has a vrm heatsink nope... I measured though and a 360 would fit with 3/4 of an inch of clearance and I already had the little fans plus they gave me 6mm of clearance between that vrm and the radiator. So I mated them to the 360 radiator on top and wow! Im blown away by the sheer performance of these things, they seriously pull some air right out of the case and keep the radiator cool enough for any load. My case with these as my exhaust 3 mounted on top with a 360mm radiator and 3 a12x25 fans in the front keep my 2070 super boosting up to 1932mhz at 69 constant temp in any game.

Have not had it for long, but it appears to be good. Was put off buying other much cheaper fans, since there was a high percentage of negative reviews: DOA, noisy, inefficient, or fail soon. Also, 99% of 120mm fans are 25mm or 1 thick without rounded corners, which make them unsuitable for tight spaces.
