Noctua NF-A15 HS-PWM chromax.Black.swap, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (140mm, Black)

Matches my new build quite well. Easy installation

I love this replacement for those ugly brown and tan fans that come with the Noctua NH D-15

They can be noisy at full speed, but you get them for that overhead. And with a 3090 rtx non water cooled and vram toaster chips on the backplate, you should at least get this to move that air away. At 50-60% speed it’s inaudible.

These fans are much louder than your standard Noctua fans.

I like the fan a lot, but Noctua should have these as standard in their coolers, so minus 1 star for the simple fact that I have to buy this to replace the poo poo Noctua brand color fan (but I love you guys, Noctua. Best fans ever). Hope I made someone laugh, but Noctua, stop being D!%&$ and give us some better color options instead of making us flush our money down the drain for better color options, with your poop colored fans, tee-hee

Took a $90 cooler and made it $150, but kind of worth it, since that brown is hideous. I put two fans on that cooler and get decent thermals for a hot room upstairs. I have it in a push-through config. Where the the intake is one one side and the exhaust is on the other side in line with the airflow of my case. Barely cracking 50C running Cinebench or any other benchmarking test for that matter since I paired it with a giant case as well. They work great, dont really push a lot of air. I have all noctua fans where I can (save GPU and PSU, didnt have control over those fans). And while its really quiet at full blast, its barely pushing 3MPH of wind. My 140mm Industrial is pushing nearly 6MPH and both are technically the same size. Didnt know giong from 2600RPM to 3000RPM was a drastic change like that. OTHER than that it was pretty easy to install. The clips can be finicky, but are secure when on. Helps go with the blackout theme I was going for with this case, even though the heat sink is still very much silver, and theres silver on the Zenith II Extreme Alpha, so its not a total blackout, but good enough. As long as it works and keeps tems down, thats all I care about. And it does do that, well.

great fan

Got here in the heat of the day. Carried it straight to my wife office

Awesome

I had the Noctua NF-D15 it has the light brown fans and I did not like the look of them in my new case
