> 3 dayAwsome for using on you GPUs. I have dual cards and it fits right in between them, and keeps them cool beautifully

> 3 daySuper quiet fan. My workflow improved and I can record now without the fan Boise in background.

> 3 dayI am really impressed with the amount of additional cables, connectors, and mounting options provided. I ordered the fan to place inside of a fursuit (costume) head. It is very quiet, if even one person is talking you cannot hear it running. The air flow is low, but it is constant and hands free so that is very nice. I thought it might be much louder than it was which is why I ordered the PWM version. Since it is *so* quiet theres no reason to not let it spin at full speed unless your application is severely power limited.

> 3 dayNoctua sets the standard for small, quiet, functional fans. My only desire is for Noctua to eventually adopt much thinner packaging. The current packaging, clearly design to reveal the products premium experience, is needlessly inconsiderate of its environmental impact.

> 3 dayI bought this for my NVidia Jetson Nano because it was recommended by the Geekworm case I bought.

> 3 dayNoctua is a get what you pay for brand. They are expensive fans. But quiet and reliable. Definitely made the router under my desk quieter. Unlike some of the cheaper quiet fans, these guys will run for years and stay quiet.

> 3 dayBought to replace noisy fans in a 1U unifi router enclosure. These are noisier, though theyre also much higher CFM.
Featuring advanced aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels and an AAO frame, the NF-A4x20 5V PWM is a PWM enabled 5V variant of Noctua’s highly optimised, premium quality quiet 40x20mm fan. The custom designed NE-FD3 PWM IC that integrates Smooth Commutation Drive technology and Noctua’s reference class SSO2 bearings assure superb running smoothness and excellent long-term stability. Topped off with modular cabling and the OmniJoin Adaptor Set, the NF-A4x20 5V PWM is a premium choice for demanding 5V applications that require PWM control.
5V PWM version
Many devices such as network or storage solutions use 5 volt 40mm fans with PWM speed control. With the same operating voltage, PWM support and the included OmniJoin adaptor set that makes it compatible with proprietary fan headers, the NF-A4x20 5V PWM is ideal for replacing noisy or broken 5V 40mm fans with PWM.
Please Note: Being a 5V fan, the NF-A4x20 5V PWM cannot be run at 12V and will be damaged when used with typical 12V power sources such as PC motherboard fan headers.

Flow Acceleration ChannelsThe NF-A4x20 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. |
SSO2 BearingThe NF-A4x20 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. |
Integrated Anti-Vibration PadsIntegrated Anti-Vibration Pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard mounting systems and fan clips used on heatsinks. |
