    Cest du Noctua. Certes, la couleur nest pas top, mais ce nest pas ce que je recherche. Il a pris place dans le boitier, tout en haut, avec son frère jumeau. Silencieux, efficace... mais un peu cher tout de même.

    Ich habe mir im Dezember ein Corsair Carbide Air 240 gegönnt. Die schon verbauten Lüfter waren leise, aber mir nicht leise genug. Aufgrund meiner positiven Erfahrung mit einem Noctua CPU Kühler wollte ich es nun wissen, wie leise kann man einen PC machen. Ich muss ehrlich sagen, würden im PC nicht ein paar LED brennen, könte man meinen der PC ist aus. Unhörbar geworden. Ich würde diese Lüfter jeder Zeit wieder kaufen!

    Preso insieme ad altre 4 ventole Noctua per areare il mio pc. Temperature abbattute e molto silenzioso a regimi minimi, ovvio che poi facendoli partire a pieno regime tutti e 7 presenti nel case questo sembra un elicottero. Comunque tenendo sempre al minimo vado alla grande ed é freddo a sufficienza. La confezione denota una qualitá enormemente superiore alla media di altri prodotti. Eccezionale!

    Quiet, moves a lot of air and excellent replacement for my case fans.

    High quality and very quiet. Pricey when compared to other companies, but worth it.

    Se non la conoscete Noctua è forse la miglior azienda di ventole e dissipatori ad aria per il mercato pc e le sue ventole possono essere utilizzate perfettamente anche su altri dispositivi. Le ventole in questione, come mi aspettavo, sono formidabili e principalmente sono state scelte per il migliore impatto acustico del modello(non che gli altri modelli siano da meno)perché utilizzate come ventole aggiuntive nel case. Inudibili. Il packaging è eccellente con tutto quello che vi serve per collegarle, come cavo splitter e low noise che tiene a rpm più bassi la ventole per un silenzio maggiore(in realtà per questo modello secondo me non ce nè bisogno) e inoltre le viti sono autofilettanti quindi fate attenzione quando le inserite perché non cè il filetto nel frame. Detto questo sono ovviamente straconsigliate se vi serve il modello con minor impatto acustico, altrimenti se vi serve più portata daria scegliete altro ma sempre Noctua

    The 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.

    Habe meinem Rechner vor einiger Zeit eine neue SSD und eine üppige Festplatte gegönnt und in diesem Zuge die alten, etwas müden und schon ein wenig schabenden Gehäuselüfter in die verdiente Rente geschickt.

    Let me start of by saying I really like these fans. My old cheap fans I originally bought sounded like a jet engine when turned on and these are so much quieter. I have 5 in my case currently and no problems with them at all. If i have any issues ill update this review but so far so good. Only thing about them that i hate is the color but since they are in my case and not easily visible not really an issue for me.

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

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.
