> 3 dayVery quiet fan, very durable. Not much else to say about it... it comes with its own mounting screws and also some kind of anti-vibration thing as well (I have no clue how to use it). As you can see by the picture the fan isnt the prettiest thing, but it does what it advertises so no complaints. (I bought 3)

Greater than one weekI bought the Noctua NH-D15s and I used this fan for a secondary fan on it, and it works beautifully!

> 3 daybought the thermaltake water 3.0 pro for an FX8350 build with Sabertooth 990FX R2. The stock fans from thermaltake are worthless. theyre as quiet as a boiler room but managed to keep the CPU temp at 35C at idle. replaced them with NoiseBlockers which could not keep the temp below 45C at idle and were not really silent. then I installed the these... the world is a better place now. The idle temp is 34C. I used Arctic Silver 5 with all the fans but will likely upgrade to the Gelid GC-Extreme.

> 3 dayInstalling the rubber standoffs was a real pain. The diagram to install the rubber standoffs didnt really help either. But overall good product.

> 3 dayHabe mir so ein Lüfter bestellt um mein CPU Kühler leiser zu machen. Musste aber nach dem Einbau feststellen das er lauter als alle meinen ändern Lüfter ist. ( billige Casefans und Arctic Lüfter ). Okay dachte ich, dann bringst halt der Luftdruck. Denkst. Kein Grad besser als der OEM Lüfter des Kühlers dafür gefühlt 3x mal so Laut. Wenn man in Zimmer Sitz denkt man draußen fliegt ein Heli solche lauten Luftverwirbelung hat er. Ich weiß nicht ob meiner defekt war, aber 20€ ist er nicht wert. Dann nehm ich lieber Arctic und Co. Die sind günstiger. Wobei ich sagen muss, ich habe ein Redux Noctua als Casefan und den hört man auf 100%/1200rpm wirklich nicht. Aber dieser hier ist nichts für mich.

Greater than one weekThese fans are incredibly quiet compared to the Corsair fans when used on my H100c. Before installing these, my computer would drown out any other white noise in the house. I couldnt leave it on because the drone would drive us all crazy. Now, I can barely tell the computer is running. I replaced all of my case fans with NF-S12 fans, and there was a slight difference. The huge drop in sound came when I installed these guys on the radiator of my H100c.

> 3 dayEn ajout sur un ventirad Noctua NH-U12S je nai gagné que 3° à la baisse en push pull. Je suis un peu déçu je mattendais à mieux. Par contre au niveau du silence cest impressionnant jai du ouvrir ma tour pour vérifier si il fonctionnait correctement. A recommander chaudement. La gestion PWM est très appréciable pour bien refroidir en silence.
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.
