> 3 dayIve been waiting a while for these, glad they finally came out! I have a raijintek morpheus ii heatsink on my vertically mounted GPU, so it takes up 4 slots with regular case fans. I really wanted something slimmer to allow more space between my GPU and glass. Well these are perfect. Theyre slim, look good, move a good bit of air, and are inaudible at about half speed. Theyre absolutely perfect when paired with Phanteks digital rgb plates.

> 3 dayWith all the hype and new PC build i thought i would take a stab at these and see if they are really all that good... So far they are quiet and seem to push a good amount of air out. I like the slim feature on these as i needed them for the top case fans and my GPU card takes up some room in my micro ATX build. worth the price!? Meh.... bought x2 and x2 140s for 100$! better last a looooong time..

> 3 daythis is not an option if ur looking for something quite ......not even close to the 23.9 db/a that noctura brag about......at only 1300 to 1500 rpm... its 3 times as loud as cooler master a12025-12cb-3jn-f1, that i found from an old build that is 8 YEARS OLD...I refuse to believe that this is a one off... but ill order another one just to prove these claims of 23.9db are super false. Noctura you should be ashamed of yourself!

> 3 dayI bought this version because I didnt want it to be brown and didnt care about the lack of cables. The fan runs quiet and do a great job replacing the stock fans/shroud on my Zotac GTX 1080. As a fan, it is five stars but I understand why people are bothered by the increase in price while losing some of the accessories. Bottom-line: get this one only if you want the fan to be black, otherwise the classic brown ones are better value.

> 3 dayThese fans work great and move a lot of air in my SFF NR200 case, theyre slim enough to allow you to use a larger CPU air cooler and a larger 2.5-3 slot GPU.

> 3 dayWhat more can i say? Its a reliable Noctua fan thats slimmer than the typical 25mm case fan. Fit two of these guys at the bottom of my CoolerMaster NR200P build with my graphic card mounted horizontally and it has room to spare where two full sized 25mm fan would have been a really tight fit. Couldnt ask for more.
Having received dozens of awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines, the NF-A12x15 has established itself as a default choice when it comes to premium-quality slim 120mm fans. The chromax.black.swap edition combines the NF-A12x15’s signature quiet cooling performance with an attractive all-black design and a bundle of self-adhesive red, white, blue, green, yellow and black anti-vibration pads that allow the colour-customisation of the fan to match individual build colour schemes. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted premium-grade SSO2 bearing and more than 150,000 hours MTTF, the NF-12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap is the perfect choice for all users who value individual, focused build aesthetics just as much as class-leading quality and performance.
15mm slim design
Having a thickness of only 15mm, the NF-A12x15 is much slimmer than standard 120x25mm fans. This makes it ideal for typical slim fan applications such as low-profile CPU coolers as well as for freeing up space by replacing standard 120x25mm fans on tower coolers, radiators or in PC cases.

Self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in 6 coloursThe NF-A12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 8 swappable, self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow respectively, which allow the fan to be fully colour-customised in order to coordinate it with other components or popular build schemes. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-A12x15 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua"s renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. |
Metal-reinforced motor hubWith many larger-diameter slim fan designs, the shorter axis and bearing lead to a reduced running stability and lifespan. The NF-A12x15 uses a metal-reinforced motor hub, a measure typically found in high-speed industrial fans, in order to ensure Noctua’s signature stability and longevity. |
Optional coloured cablesNoctua’s chromax line fans use a modular cabling system and come pre-fitted with a fully sleeved black NA-EC1 30cm cable. For refined colour coordination, white, red, blue, green and yellow 30cm NA-EC1 cables plus corresponding NA-YC1 y-cables are available separately. |
Maximising colour choices, the NF-A12x15 chromax.black.swap fan can be colour-customised using the included self-adhesive anti-vibration pads as well as optional coloured cables. This makes it ideal for enthusiasts looking for a true premium-grade fan that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes such as all black, black & white or black & red.
