Greater than one weekIm not fan boy of Noctua, but since moving toward Fractal Design Define R4 i struggle to find 140mm PWM fans, there are some options like Akasa, Noiseblockers, etc, but by fan this were the best that i have tested.

> 3 dayThese are NOT the prettiest fans in the world. Unless brown and cream are your 2 favorite colors, these fans are quite frankly: ugly. HOWEVER, the performance you get from these fans are so so. Keep in mind, theres a science to audible vs. performance when it comes to fans. I really wanted to buy into the hype when it came to these fans. And yes, at full RPMs, the fan is darn near silent. BUT, the CFM for these fans are not something you can ignore if you really want to keep the temps of your case low. If you dont overclock stuff, then this fan is for you. I overclock my GPU and CPU and after doing a few temperature readings, these Noctua case fans actually did worse than the Corsair AF140s. The Corsair fans were louder (and revved up higher in RPM) but at the same time, the CFMs were higher and it showed in the temp readings. Everyones rig is setup differently. I personally wanted to try to see if Noctuas case fans were really worth the hype. And yes, audible-wise, I often caught myself open up my case and peeking with a flashlight to see if they were even spinning (they were). If you can live with higher than average cooling performance with near silent audible, then Noctuas are the fans for you. Im wearing headphones most of the time Im gaming and I just wanted fans that werent too loud YET kept my rig cool.

> 3 dayEven though these are the made in China variant these fans are still the most quiet fans I have had in a computer. When I was making a new build I decided on both these fans for intake and a Noctua cpu cooler and I have to say they made a loyal buyer at of me. As long as they keep up with this quality and proformance I think Ill be using their fans and coolers for a long time.

> 3 dayI bought these back in 2014 and they worked since then. one got some noise and i bought it again. One of the best built fans out there. I dont care about RGB so quality over visuals all the way.

> 3 dayThese fans are quiet as heck. If youre building a quiet system or are looking for fans that will last forever, these are worth the extra money. Ive got a windowed case and the brown/tan scheme doesnt match at all. You can definitely tell these are Noctua, haha. Ive heard theyre coming out with black fans which would be nice. Its not worth the effort to change out everything. Love them!

Greater than one weekThese fans are genuinely amazing. I bought 4 for use in my case to fight the summer heat here in Texas. I have an MSI R9 390 and an i5-4690k with stock cooling in a Fractal Design Define R5 case with glass window. Before I got these fans, the tempered glass on the case would actually get warm during gaming and 3D rendering tasks. After installing the fans, the glass is cool always. The computer sits on the desk right next to my head, and I do not hear the computer even under load when I have my headphones on. These fans live up to the hype and are worth the premium if you can afford them.
