> 3 dayThese fans are top of the line. The only issue is the color. Works great and is very quiet. Have been a customer for years. I will use them anytime I need to add a fan or replace the cheat ones put in most systems.

> 3 dayThe fans DID NOT WORK. Installation was a hassle - the brown vibration things provided do not go through the holes, and the screws are impossible to screw. You have to use all your force and it is a 2 person job just to get 1 screw in. In the end, the fans did not even spin. Complete waste of money, do not buy this.

> 3 dayConocía esta marca pues tengo un disipador de CPU de la misma hace ya 4 años que nunca ha dado problema alguno: eficaz y duradero. Éste es un ventilador de caja de calidad que no es barato, pero que bien montado es silencioso y eficaz. Viene con un par de cables-adaptadores todos de 4 pin tipo macho y tipo hembra para la placa madre junto a los correspondientes 4 tornillos y amortiguadores para la caja del ordenador.

> 3 dayInstalled two of the NF-S12A PWM as Intake and Exhaust fans. These are the ones optimized for airflow. Once you set a proper fan profile in your BIOS they run nearly silent all the while pushing great airflow. My PC originally came with just an exhaust fan and nothing else. I added a RTX 2080ti and my gpu was pushing 80-84C. After adding the Noctua Intake fan my temps dropped 10-12C. Definitely a worthwhile purchase. The most common complaint I hear about these fans is not about their quality or performance but their color. These are probably the same idiots that make their PCs look like X-mas trees with RGB lighting. When did color of components even become a factor in a quality PC build? Hey can I get my Ferrari in Pink!? Noctua finally caved and now makes them in black. If youre having trouble choosing the correct fan for your application check out the Noctua website- it has all the info youll ever need.

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.
