> 24 hourRemoved 2 stars because I received a clearly used product. The return label from the previous user was still stuck directly on the product packaging and the packaging was sloppily taped back together. On top of that, many of the colored rubber pieces were missing from the box.

> 24 hourThis fan works well as a push fan on the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO. I recently converted it to a pull fan for a Noctua NH-U12S chromax. Black that I recently purchased and installed.

> 24 hourIm using them in H80i and they are clearly more quiet, and the temp difference is only a couple degrees. The pads supplied help make them match the color pattern in your case. Wish there were 8 of each color for the front and back of each fan.

> 24 hourYou gotta kidding me that I have to immediately go out of my way to return this. No jumper cables. Not a single anti vibration pad. No mounting screws. Useless!!!

> 24 hourIm so glad Noctua put out some fans that arent the ugly brown color scheme. As other people have said, the fans only come with 4 of each color, so if youre looking to have the same color pads on both sides of the fans youll need to buy some extra. For my build, I just used the black pads on the side that goes against the case and the colored ones (white) on the inside for looks.

> 24 hourBought these to replaced OEM fans on water cooler system and what a difference in the noise! These are very quiet with the same air flow volume over the radiator.

Swappable anti-vibration pads in 6 coloursThe NF-F12 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 4 black, white, red, blue, green and yellow NA-AVP1 anti-vibration pads respectively. By combining the various colours with black or leaving off the pads on one side, the fan can be coordinated with most popular build colour schemes out of the box. Additional NA-SAVP1 sets for outfitting both sides in one colour can be purchased separately. |
SSO2 bearingThe chromax line fans feature 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. |
Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control NotchesThe NF-F12"s stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help to spread the noise emission over a broader frequency spectrum and thus make the fan"s sound pattern more agreeable to the human ear. |
Focused Flow frameDesigned for pressure demanding applications such as heatsinks and radiators, the Focused Flow frame features eleven stator guide vanes that straighten, channel and focus the airflow, which allows the NF-F12 to rival the performance of conventional fans running at much faster speeds. |
Maximising colour choices, Noctua’s chromax.black.swap edition fans can be colour-customised using the included swappable anti-vibration pads as well as optional anti-vibration mounts and cables. This makes them ideal for enthusiasts looking for true premium-grade fans that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes such as all black, black & white or black & red.
