    Jai remplacé les ventilateurs de boitier de mon pc par ce modèle et coupé le bruit en 2 sans compromettre la ventilation!! Très silencieux!!

    These fans are very quiet. There are three of these fans in the case, and the only noise I hear is the GPU fans when I play games. I used the rubber nubs to install all three fans. They are holding up to dust very well with only a bi-yearly cleaning.

    If youre seeking a silent pc, the newest sterrox A12x25 fans are not for you. Even with the ultra low noise adapter, the whooshing of the air is loud enough to be distracting. It is only quiet enough if you daisy chain the ULNA and LNA together, but at that point the voltage becomes too low and the fan starts to make a ticking sound (as it attempts to start and stop I presume). You may have better sound levels switching to the A12x25 ULN, but I personally switched to the NF-S12A instead for its superior airflow and lower noise levels (evident on the noctua site with around 10 decibels with LNA). I have the fans off at idle and have them ramp up under load. The NF-S12A does make sound as well, hence the 0 rpm mode set on my motherboard, but they do seem to be the quietest fans available that still provide decent airflow. The fans are impressive having the same noise level between 30% and 60% providing very high airflow with a quiet air being moved noise. Very happy with my NF-S12A purchase, got 3 of them in my Define C TG with a Noctua NH-D15 (set to minimum 20% rpm).

    Have this fan as my case’s exhaust fan and it works wonderfully. Keeps my computer components cool while I game. I highly recommend buying one if you need a great exhaust fan.

    Im a Noctua fan (see what I did there?) despite their odd color. I personally have become fond of it and they work amazing. The packaging is great, instructions clear, and everything feels like amazing quality.

    this is the best fan I have ever seen I am using on cpu-pwm connector with quiet setting and it the quietest fan but is moving the most air. I tried this with a manual voltage control knob and turned it down so the fan was less then 100 rpm and it never stalled. I installed as pull on heat sink so the heat goes right out the top of case, with it installed this way there is less than an inch to edge of case. I did burn in after replacing paste over night and with the heat the fan started to really blow the noise was very resonable for the amount of breeze I felt with my hand. But the amazing part was when the compound PK-1 started to convert the cpu hit 95C for about 15-30 minutes and the fan woke me up because it sounded like a hair dryer. I couldnt even believe the amount of air coming out of the case. I had the log on and other than that everything the temperature was normal 60-70 c.The temperature has never got that high again. I really love this fan I have built maybe 40 pc over the years for mostly friends with all kinds of parts and this fan is amazing.

NF-S12A PWM HeaderNF-S12A PWM Header

The NF-S12A marks the third generation of Noctua’s signature S12 series quiet case fans, which have received more than 250 awards and recommendations from the international press. Featuring a further refined blade design with Anti-Stall Knobs that works in tandem with the new AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame, the NF-S12A improves the airflow/noise efficiency of its renowned predecessor by up to 8%. The PWM version sports Noctua’s custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1200 to 900rpm. Its superb running smoothness, SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for quiet case cooling

NF-S12ANF-S12A

AAO frame

Noctua"s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua"s proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan"s performance/noise efficiency.

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.

SSO2 bearing

The NF-S12A features 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.

Inner Surface Microstructures

With the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency.

Scope of delivery

  • NA-RC7 Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A)
  • NA-YC1 4-pin PWM y-cable
  • NA-EC1 30cm extension cable
  • 4x NA-AV1 anti-vibration mounts
  • Fan screws

Anti-Stall Knobs

The NF-S12A"s Anti-Stall Knobs reduce flow separation phenomena in medium to high impedance situations and thereby increase the fan"s stall margin. This means that the NF-S12A is even more versatile than its renowned predecessor and can achieve better performance on heatsinks and radiators.
