> 3 dayEste ventilador es increible, el ruido es apenas perceptible, las orillas con goma evitan la vibración, tiene un flujo de aire justo para refrigerar el PC, los accesorios ayudan bastante en especial el reductor de voltaje y la extensión ya que el conector es algo corto. Lo que mas me llamo la atención es la garantia de 6 años lo cual indica que es un producto de excelente calidad.

> 3 dayThe fan comes with plenty of 4 pin wire extension but wtf the 4 metal screws are too big and cant get through the holes on the fan ( luckily I can re-use the long screws from my old fan otherwise I will have to return it).

> 3 dayLos tengo en una caja mini ITX con un Noctua NH-L12 y la temperatura del procesador i7 4790k no pasa de 41ºC ni exprimiendolo al maximo.

> 3 dayThe small additional cost for this high-quality fan is worth it. Its the quietest fan Ive ever experienced, and it comes with plenty of cables, and mounts quickly and easily. Even though its practically silent, it seems to move more air than its far noisier predecessor. Its not the prettiest fan on the market by any means - the brown and beige will clash with a lot of case interiors - but I plan on replacing all four of my case fans with Noctuas.

03-04-2025Very quite case fan provides excellent cooling. Runs at a max of 1200 RPM so is nice and quiet but still provides great cooling due to its fan design. If you need reliable fans Noctua meets the need. Also includes fan extension as the four pin connector is a little shorter than on some other fans.

> 3 dayabsolute best fans that I have ever used. Good air flow and still extremely quiet for the air flow that they provide.
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
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 padsIntegrated 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 bearingThe 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 MicrostructuresWith 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
|
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.
