Greater than one weekUn peu plus bruyant que je naurai cru pour ces Noctua NF-S12A PWM a 20€ piece tout de meme qui pourtant tournent seuleument entre 900 et 1200 tours (Une réelle utilité detre en PMW pour une si petite variation de vitesse)?

> 3 daySulla qualità nulla da dire; Noctua una garanzia! sulla ventilazione non mi ha convinto al 100% la stessa Noctua la consiglia per casefan ma a mio parere se si vuole una buona ventilazione tralasciando un attimo la silenziosità punterei sulla F!

Greater than one weekEcht leiser Lüfter mit niedrige Anlaufzahl Noctua halt. Wird als Luftauszauglüfter in Silverstone Fortress FT05 verwendet und leistet einen guten Dienst so weit.

> 3 dayHo avuto già altre Noctua, ma questo modello non ha proprio intenzione di emettere alcun suono..

> 3 dayMy stock case fans leave a bit to be desired when it comes to be quiet. I replaced them with a pair of these. Running them at 450 RPM, they are inaudible. It isnt until about 750-800 RPM until they get audible (barely), and it is the movement of the air, not the fans itself.

> 3 dayBest ever quality and design in 20 years of building PCs. WELL WORTH the little extra $$. The quietest fan anywhere. Packaging and necessaries fit for a king.

> 3 daySomewhat quiet. Came with screws, anti-vibration mounts, an extension cable, a splitter, and a noise reduction cable.
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.
