Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-2000 PWM, Heavy Duty Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 2000 RPM (120mm, Black)

My rig is about 10 years old - still working well but the fans on the CPU Cooler and a case fan were acting up. Replaced them each with one of these and I was surprised at how much noise the old fans were making. About all I can hear now is the airflow - these are a bit more expensive than some, but quality is worth the money.

Got this to replace the stock fan on my eVGA 2080ti Hybrid cooler. This fan has way better static pressure, quieter at higher RPM therefore cooler GPU at the same noise level.

While searching for fans to replace the stock fan on my Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, sitting on an Intel i7-6700K. The lone stock fan just wasnt doing enough when the processor got over 50% load. Lots of research later I found these and went with them over the more common NF-F12 PWM because the NF-F12 iPPC-2000 PWM has a higher RPM, better air flow, and much better Static Air Pressure, all with only a small bump in noise levels. It does use twice the power at full speed but I can accept that if it can keep the CPU from becoming a toaster oven. After the install I did see a 5 degree Celsius drop in idle and light duty usage. When the fresh heat transfer becomes fully cured Ill put it under a heavy load and see how my temps hold up. If things go south, and if I still have a working system, Ill update accordingly. For now Im very happy with them. If I dont update this in the future you can assume everything worked great and no smores were made on the CPU cooler before going all fireball on me. I really like smores but i can build something much cheaper to make those on! Wow, now I might have my Christmas project figured out, now to work out its best system for good results. well its time to take this conversation over to instructables.com.

A little noisier than the silent fans that came with my Fractal Design Define XL R2, but ambient temp went from 33C to a solid 29C. Also CPU and GPU went from 39C and 47C to 34C and 43C respectively.

I have a Corsair H100i CPU cooler with two fans two years ago that were super noisy after removing my HDD and replacing with M2 SSDs. You could touch the fans and you could hear metal contact movement.

My first Noctua fans and I hate myself for waiting so long to try these out. When I first started with them, I freaked out thinking they weren’t working but they were just THAT quiet. Quality is amazing, keeping everything cool.

Amazing radiator fan! I recommend setting up a good fan curve as it is pretty dang loud at full RPM so you dont want it running at full all the time.

This is the Chevy of case fans! well built and high RPM! all the corners are rubber (brown) so no need to buy extra materials!

I love these fans, if you need any fans for your PC I highly recommend these. Super quiet and really move air. Just make sure you are getting the proper fan for the job you are searching for.

very quiet
