> 3 dayThese are freaky quiet. You have to look at them to know that they are spinning. Very well made. Fancy packaging and a ton of accessories. For some reason they were like 15 dollars cheaper per unit on amazon compared to my local micro center. I had a heck of a time installing them because I used all of the available rubber mounts, no screws. Depending on how your case is constructed, it can be a bit fiddly. Not really the fault of the manufacturer.

> 3 dayWorks great for my 1080ti sea hawk x. Better than the stock fan even though it is, by far, the ugliest fan in existence (their trademark it seems)

> 3 dayPowerful fans! Using these as my front intake fans for my case cause the color scheme is so bad, but cant deny they push a ton of air. I took off the rubber mounts on the back side of the fans because they were pressing on my hard drive cages and making a bit of a vibration, but after that theyre working perfectly and no complaints!

Greater than one weekI have a Cool Master Heatsink that the fan went bad after about 3 years. The fan had always been noisy to begin with and the bearing eventually went off center and started grinding and vibrating loudly while not spinning. Replacing it with a Noctua fan was easy. Its really quiet and I hope it lasts longer than 3 years. I rarely turn off my computer so the fan needs to run 24/7 for a long while. Its been about a month and still no problem.

> 3 dayBought these for my HTPC in the living-room and I can barley hear them but my case stays cool to the touch even after hours of use.
Teaming up eleven stator guide vanes with a specially conceived seven blade impeller, the NF-F12’s Focused Flow system creates outstanding static pressure and focuses the airflow for superior performance on heatsinks and radiators. At the same time, a wide range of advanced aerodynamic design measures, second generation SSO-Bearing and Noctua’s new, custom designed PWM IC for fully automatic control assures astounding quietness of operation. The NF-F12 comes with modular cabling, integrated anti-vibration pads and two speed settings for full flexibility. Its commanding performance, exhaustive set of features and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for use on air coolers, radiators and other pressure demanding applications.
Focused Flow frame
Designed 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.

Heptaperf ImpellerCustom designed for the new Focused Flow frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12"s seven blade Heptaperf impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quietness. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-F12 is the first fan to 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. |
Scope of Delivery
|
Integrated anti-vibration pads
Integrated anti-vibration pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard screws and other mounting systems.
