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

Cooling an overclocked Threadripper 2950X with a Thermalright Silver Arrow TR4. I just leave the RPM on full since its ~1300 rpm and is almost silent in the case. Allows the CPU to take full advantage of PBO with 4.4 GHz partial loads and 4.1 GHz all core loads. Thank god Noctua started making black fans.

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.

Im using this 140mm Chromax in the 120mm exhaust position on my Corsair 5000D AirFlow. It fits perfectly on its side. The screw holes do not line up at all. I decided to zip ties the frame to the grill until I can drill the screw holes.

My bf got this for his PC and this fan is amazing! Its exactly what he wanted and needs to keep his PC tower cool when he is gaming or animating. So far its been quiet and provides much needed and strong air flow.

Im glad you can buy them but it should be an option when you buy the cpu cooler fan . Now I have 2 fugly extra fans

I got these fans (yes plural) to cool a large case with ten 3.5 hard disks. I found them to be totally inadequate, even when tied directly to the 12V PS output. I also have several 120MM fan from Cooler Master, Sythe, Phantek, Artcic, and others, they all move more air and are just as quiet (or almost as quiet) as these are. I bought this model and the two toned brown ones, both models are NF-A15 and they both stink.

Typical Noctua quality and performance. Second to none. I highly recommend these fans.

Nothing to say about Noctua.. i bought this to upgrade my Cryorig h5 stock fan which is decent and quite, but noctua do the job far better. same Idle temps at half rpm, 50% more air flow at average speed. (146 CFM vs 76 CFM ). The colours pad seal the deal for any build. i ll definitely buy again from NOCTUA.

Silent at max speed, I love it

Engineered by the best. Best of all, they are not brown! Picked up two for a push-pull configuration on the CPU and added a y-cable for connecting them to the MOBO. Note: Chromax does NOT come with their own y-cable. Though Noctua states that this part does come with one, they must be referring to the ugly duckling counterpart.
