    remplacement dun ventilateur devenu bruyant dans une tour, parfait, moins bruyant que le précédent et plus efficace.

    Is it worth it? YES. Performance, noise level, and accompanying hardware all make this an excellent buy for the person tired of the bumble bees in the box.

    These fans are *so* much quieter than my stock case fans. I recently upgraded my case with a bunch of these and an H80i. My Asus fan controller software keeps the RPM of these fans really low (mostly off) except during gaming sessions.

    Não tem erro com os produtos da Noctua - fazem vc ficar impressionado com a qualidade e desempenho -muito bom mesmo.

    These fans (NF-S12A) have the same airflow capability as ML120s that I was using before at half the rpm and less than half the noise, albeit much leas static pressure, I don’t have a restrictive “look good” case, airflow all the way. At full blast (1200rpm) they sound like a person breathing gently, not loudly. Superb quality and I do love the signature colors, I’m sure lots of people are hating on that comment but its my PC and I purposely bought the signature colors because I know that the people at Noctua are proud of their engineering and their signature colors and I respect that. Your computer may “look nicer” but mine is probably faster.

    Confezione curata. Gli angoli sono in materiale morbido per contenere le vibrazioni trasmesse al case.

    Vi algunos análisis que hablaban de poca fuerza y que no movían casi nada de aire, lo cual me hizo dudar de la comprar. Pero nada más lejos, es cierto que no son ventiladores de presión, por lo que no vas a notar con la mano ese flujo de aire, a no ser que acerques mucho la mano; pero esto es normal. Aún así, el flujo de aire que mueven está ahí y hace su papel. Tengo una caja ITX y los 4 ventiladores hacen que el aire se recircule constantemente y que la caja esté realmente muy fresca y todo ello sin que los ventiladores se escuchen entre nada y apenas. Algo que me encanta de Noctua, es el tono del ventilador (del motor y como suena el aire al circular por ellos), es un tono muy bueno y nada que ver con cualquier otro ventilador que digan que también es muy silencioso y vale la mitad o menos; ya os digo yo que no. La calidad se paga y si se te ofrece, al final no es cara.

    My first Noctua fan, and wont be my last. Extremely high quality parts and packaging. You truly get what you pay for. The fan is very quiet and moves a decent amount of air. I use it as my rear exhaust fan in my Fractal Design Define C Mini.

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.
