Greater than one weekFantastic fans. I think my results may be a little extreme but my setup was 3 apevia case fans in the front, 1 mastercooler 120mm AIO on i7 9700k. The 2 mastercooler fans that came with the AIO were push/pull config on the rear of case. I added 2 of these Noctua fans one on top for exhaust and one on bottom for intake and my cpu is 15 degrees cooler now while gaming. My GPU never gets hot so Im not sure the improvement it made for it.

> 3 dayThe quality of these fans are great but....I am not a fan of the mounting system. It does provide for a low noise mount but for my specific case it was more trouble than its worth. I have a Corsair Vengeance C70 case and the mounting knobs did not play nice with the proprietary grommets corsair uses. Also, given the location of the mount, it might be difficult even without the grommet issue. I would not, however, let that discourage you from buying this fan. It is great.

> 3 dayI needed a quiet fan for the low profile heat sink in my Home Theater Personal Computer (HTPC). I used a ASUS Z87M-Plus motherboard with ASUS Fan Xpert 2 Fan control software. Other PWM fans I tried would not spin down correctly and could not be calibrated to work with the automatic speed control of Fan Xpert 2. I installed this Noctua fan and it calibrated with Fan Xpert 2 perfectly the first time and now works to automatically control the fan speed based on the processor temperature. The fan runs full speed at 1200 RPM when the processor is at full load and slows to 250 RPM at idle. Even at full speed the processor the fan is quiet and at idle cannot be heard. Pros: comes with a full set of accessories, works great with Fan Xpert 2 where other fans wont and has a 6 year warranty. Cons: pricey compared to other fans. If I had purchased this fan to begin with I would have saved the days I spent troubleshooting my HTPC trying to find out the problem with the other fans not being sensed correctly by Fan Xpert 2. So much for being a cheapskate. Next time Ill buy this better fan to begin with.

> 3 dayBeen using Noctua case fans for many years. They move a lot of air at low speeds, are almost silent, and Ive never had one fail. I only use these where they arent visible because of the colors. The black.swap ones are just as good (just more expensive) so I use them where a fan is exposed.

> 3 dayEfficace et très agréable pour ventiler un boitier, en particulier en push/pull. Excellent rapport qualité/prix comparé au Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM qui est meilleur mais bien plus cher.

> 3 dayExcellent design. I have it set as exhaust in my case and I almost want to put another in the front of a 200mm non-PWM fan that sits at max most of the time.

> 3 dayDas Kabel- und Befestigungszubehör ist lobend zu erwähnen. Der Kühler macht gute Arbeit am Miditowergehäuse (seitliche Abluft) und ist kaum vernehmbar (Boardgesteuerte Umdrehungen).
