    Come da titolo rispetto ad una Noctua P12 montata in estrazione in un case mini itx ho ottenuto temperature più alte di 2-3 gradi in stress test con Aida64. Il punto a favore di questa S12A risiede nella sua estrema silenziosità anche al 100%, suppongo che la discrepanza nei risultati risieda nella particolarità della mia situazione. Comunque è la migliore ventola che ho mai provato quanto a silenziosità in rapporto alle temperature, tantè che comunque ho lasciato questa installata nel pc

    -Would (and in fact did) buy again. :)

    Excellent product. Package includes extension and Y cables and a six-year warranty. Very nice touch.

    I am using the Noctua NF-S12A (4-pin) fan as a single exhaust fan with no additional case fans. I replaced an Antec Silent variable speed fan that came with my case when the bearings started to go. I thought Antec fan was quiet but the Noctua NF-S12A is essentially silent when running idle add pushes a lot of air. The Noctua NF-S12A fan is a little pricey but this fan is exceptional. The fan comes with rubber anti-vibration connectors, an extension cable, a y-extension cable and a low noise adapter cable (has a resistor to slow fan speed down. I have the case mounted under the desk and even without using the low noise adapter or the anti-vibrations connectors, the fan is silent. I would highly recommend this fan for anyone concerned about noise in small shared spaces.

    Dopo aver acquistato ed in seguito visto allopera il mio dissipatore Noctua NH-U12S per tenere a bada il mio i7 4790K, ho ordinato due Nf-s12a pwm per montarle allinterno del mio case Corsair Vengeance C70. Ho voluto sostituire le 3 ventole Corsair che erano montate di serie nel case e che facevano molto rumore girando ad una velocità fissa di circa 800 rpm (vergognoso dopo aver pagato il case circa 140 euro). Le due ventole Noctua le ho disposte una in estrazione posteriormente e laltra in immissione sul pannello laterale. Entrambe le ventole sono state collegate utilizzando ladattatore a V presente in ognuna delle due confezioni e ho così potuto sfruttare un solo attacco a 4 pin della mia scheda madre Z97-K. In questo modo le ventole vengono gestite dal bios girando contemporaneamente alla stessa velocitá o volendo puó essere anche aumentata a proprio piacimento. Ho riservato il secondo attacco a 4 pin della mia scheda madre per altre due ventole che probabilmente installerò in seguito. Detto questo che nonostante ciò sia le due ventole che il dissipatore della cpu tutte e 3 di marca Noctua, lavorando ad un regime di rotazione inferiore ai 400 rpm, per quanto possano essere silenziose, sono comunque udibili, quindi non fatevi film a meno che non abbiate un case completamente sigillato/blindato.

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

    Nice and quiet on old Chillblast I5 machine easy to fit into existing holes with the new screws provided. Replaced stock case cooling fan which had become very noisy .Didnt use damper mounts as accessibility issues in case but quiet even though screwed in place. PWM 4 pins just slotted into Chan 1 fan slot on motherboard. (Asus P8Z77-V) Rebooted machine and it was detected and started up. Now Running at 750 rpm on 900 rpm low noise adapter cable provided.

    Très bon produit. Permet de ventiler son PC quasi silencieusement, tout en tournant à 1200 RPM. Fonctionne très bien avec un filtre à poussière devant, malgré quil soit précisé quil nest pas fait pour les grosses pressions. Pour 20€, cest parfait !

    Me compre 2 Noctua NF-S12A PWM, son excelentes ventiladores para tu computadora, silenciosos, no hacen nada de ruido. Los ventiladores aún conservan la forma de sus aspas, no sean deformado nada. Los compré hace como 3 años y aún funcionan como nuevos.

    Bought this to see the exceptional airflow claims for it, was not impressed, just seems like an average fan at a high price, would NOT recommend. Get the Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM instead of this (which I also bought), that fan is a jack of all trades and really impresses in all areas.

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.
