Noctua NF-F12 PWM chromax.Black.swap, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (120mm, Black)

The fan is decent, quiet and looks good with my NH-D15, I used it to lower the height and not losing the air flow to the heatsink, I got disappointed with anti-vibration pads, I got only 4 from each color instead of 8, unlike the NF-A15 that come with 8 for each color! so I still feel something missing :(

Great fan! Bought them to replace the brown ones that came with the Noctua NH-U12S. They’re super quiet and efficient. One star knocked off because they only include 4 same color rubber corners of the many color options included. There should be 8 corners for each color to complete the fan.

I have 2 issues with this fan:

I bought 2 of these for my CPU cooler. Functionally, they perform as you would expect from a Noctua product. They do a good job of cooling, while remaining relatively silent. They are audible, but nowhere near distracting.

I am pretty disappointed with these Noctua NF-F12 PWM fans since I got them for two reasons:

I love these fans. My build is completely silent even at full CPU load. (I can hear it if the fans are at 100%, but they do not need to ever spin that fast to cool the PC under load)

Noise level. Performance. Build quality. They even look classy. They are Noctua. They live up to the hype. Definitely worth the couple extra bucks.

What can you expect

While the fans perform great, it is retarded to only provide 4 of each colours for the rubber grommet. There should be clear indication of the product contents in your description.

These things are dead silent. I originally tried the Arctic P12 PWM PSTs in my build, but there was a very noticeable constant whining sound when they ran. These, on the other hand, are so quiet that you hear the air rushing through the fan more than you hear the fans themselves. It doesnt get much quieter than that.
