Greater than one weekThis fan isnt meant to be one of the quietest, I gave it 5 stars because it preformed within expectations. With that being said, the noise isnt unbearable or annoying, but thats opinion oriented. It did, however, immensely increase the cooling of my case. I didnt have an exhaust fan before, just 3 intake (Generic RGB Corsair Case fans from a Crystal 460x), and 1 cooler fan (NH-D15s). I did also install another fan as a top exhaust, same type as the one on the NH D15s, but quality of air flow was most noticeable after installing the NF-S12B.

Greater than one weekThese move air like nobodys business and they are extremely quite while doing it. A worthwhile sacrifice to RGB in my opinion, no one makes fans like Noctua

> 3 dayI bought four of these to replace my two loud stock Corsair case fans along with the Noctua anti-vibration pads. These run more quiet and at a lower tone than the high pitch of my old fans. The side mounted fan should help with my GPU thermals, and I installed two more intakes at front and bottom of the case, with one exhaust out the rear. Ill pick up a fifth fan for top exhaust.

Designed for efficient case ventilationTypical PC case ventilation applications require high airflow but only medium static pressure. The NF-S12B has been specifically designed for high airflow efficiency and low noise in order to provide best results in these so called low impedance applications . |
SSO-BearingCombining the proven concept of hydrodynamic bearing with an additional magnet that supports the self-stabilisation of the rotor axis, Noctua"s time-tested technology has become synonymous with supremely quiet operation and exceptional long-term stability. |
Bevelled Blade TipsReducing critical rotor stator interaction, Bevelled Blade Tips permit to combine extended leading edges and a higher blade surface area with quieter operation and thus form a cornerstone of the fan"s outstanding efficiency. |
Colour-customisable with NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration padsThe fan’s frame can be outfitted with Noctua’s chromax line NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads. Available in black, red, blue, white, green and yellow, these pads not only damp minute vibrations but also allow the fan to be colour-customised in order to coordinate it with popular build colour schemes! |
