    I missed the x15 designation when I ordered this. I wish I had read the reviews much more closely before ordering.

    You care about performance and metrics like static pressure and CFM? You want wicked performance but also value sound? You want all this plus you still want everything to look amazing and match the rest of your system? One problem, you have a super small case or a very small place for a fan. Look no further. Noctua with their Chromax 15mm slim fan has you covered. This fan doesn’t sacrifice one or the other. It has amazing air pressure as well as static pressure. Therefore it can be used on a heatsink or as a case fan. What about looks? It’s jet black and comes with 6(iirc) different color options for the rubber corner pieces. Black, white, green, blue, red, and yellow. What’s the deal here? You get a fan that looks better than most fans, has customization options, is more silent than most fans, out performs most fans, has the ability to be connected to a Noctua L.N.A. to make it further silent, and all while being a 15mm slim fan so it’s much smaller than a standard 25mm fan. It looks great, is silent, has some of the best performance out there, and will fit literally anywhere a 120mm fan will go. Congratulations, you’ve found the best slim fan on the market in all aspects. Pat yourself on the back, your search is over. One final thing of note. The description says the fan comes with 8 black pieces and 4 of each color. That is not correct. It comes with 8 of every single color so you can do the entire fan on both sides in any color you like. I choose blue and paired it with the 140mm fan and the Noctua NH-D15S CPU cooler. Check out the beauty in the pictures.

    They are noctua fans, what do you expect? The anti vibration adhesion pads work great. At max rpm, the fan is still fairly quiet compared to my lian li SL120 fans at max rpm. I only wish that the pigtail coming off of the fan was a little longer, but if youre fairly good at cable management, it is workable.

    Couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use those remarkable and yet powerful slim fans for my new 240mm AIO in a push/pull config. Will always trust their brands!

    Its a great fan. Quiet and moves a lot of air. Also, slim which I needed.

    Very effective fans that are easy to work with and near silent! I was very pleasantly surprised by how quiet these are because even when running on high speed its still quieter than any other computer Ive ever had. Worth your money!

    Finally! I have been waiting months to replace the beige Noctua with a black version.

    Awesome addition to my PC build. using it as an intake fan in the Corsair Airflow 275 case. the chroma line for noctua is awesome if you want to style out your rig. After buying the 120mm fan, i opted to buy the 140mm industrial chroma fans to beef up the airflow in my PC. Recently turned on to Noctua by a friend and will forever be a fan from here on out. Easy install and awesome accessories to cater to the aesthetics of your PC build with the variety of color choice for the bumpers.

Having received dozens of awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines, the NF-A12x15 has established itself as a default choice when it comes to premium-quality slim 120mm fans. The chromax.black.swap edition combines the NF-A12x15’s signature quiet cooling performance with an attractive all-black design and a bundle of self-adhesive red, white, blue, green, yellow and black anti-vibration pads that allow the colour-customisation of the fan to match individual build colour schemes. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted premium-grade SSO2 bearing and more than 150,000 hours MTTF, the NF-12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap is the perfect choice for all users who value individual, focused build aesthetics just as much as class-leading quality and performance.

15mm slim design

Having a thickness of only 15mm, the NF-A12x15 is much slimmer than standard 120x25mm fans. This makes it ideal for typical slim fan applications such as low-profile CPU coolers as well as for freeing up space by replacing standard 120x25mm fans on tower coolers, radiators or in PC cases.

Self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in 6 colours

The NF-A12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 8 swappable, self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow respectively, which allow the fan to be fully colour-customised in order to coordinate it with other components or popular build schemes.

SSO2 bearing

The NF-A12x15 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.

Metal-reinforced motor hub

With many larger-diameter slim fan designs, the shorter axis and bearing lead to a reduced running stability and lifespan. The NF-A12x15 uses a metal-reinforced motor hub, a measure typically found in high-speed industrial fans, in order to ensure Noctua’s signature stability and longevity.

Optional coloured cables

Noctua’s chromax line fans use a modular cabling system and come pre-fitted with a fully sleeved black NA-EC1 30cm cable. For refined colour coordination, white, red, blue, green and yellow 30cm NA-EC1 cables plus corresponding NA-YC1 y-cables are available separately.

Maximising colour choices, the NF-A12x15 chromax.black.swap fan can be colour-customised using the included self-adhesive anti-vibration pads as well as optional coloured cables. This makes it ideal for enthusiasts looking for a true premium-grade fan that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes such as all black, black & white or black & red.
