> 3 dayLove the fans. Note, they do not spin as fast as the regular brown NF-A15s but that is fine with me, they are working just fine.

Greater than one weekTook a $90 cooler and made it $150, but kind of worth it, since that brown is hideous. I put two fans on that cooler and get decent thermals for a hot room upstairs. I have it in a push-through config. Where the the intake is one one side and the exhaust is on the other side in line with the airflow of my case. Barely cracking 50C running Cinebench or any other benchmarking test for that matter since I paired it with a giant case as well. They work great, dont really push a lot of air. I have all noctua fans where I can (save GPU and PSU, didnt have control over those fans). And while its really quiet at full blast, its barely pushing 3MPH of wind. My 140mm Industrial is pushing nearly 6MPH and both are technically the same size. Didnt know giong from 2600RPM to 3000RPM was a drastic change like that. OTHER than that it was pretty easy to install. The clips can be finicky, but are secure when on. Helps go with the blackout theme I was going for with this case, even though the heat sink is still very much silver, and theres silver on the Zenith II Extreme Alpha, so its not a total blackout, but good enough. As long as it works and keeps tems down, thats all I care about. And it does do that, well.

> 3 dayAs expected, these Noctua fans are quiet and move a lot of air. Far better than Corsair fans.

> 3 dayNoctua products tend to be on the higher end when it comes to pricing, but they are always top quality. Quiet, powerful, sturdy.

Greater than one weekI bought a NH-d15S chromax originally. That cooler came with only one fan and was adequate at the time. My workloads have gotten a bit more intensive and I decided to add a second fan to the CPU cooler. Temps run a few degrees cooler than with the single fan. Comes with an assortment of anti-vibration pads in just about every color one could need.

> 3 dayI got a few of these and it definitely work as an exhaust case fan. But for the front, its off. Since I had to use my 120mm mounts, theres now a gap in between the 2 fans. It works but doesnt look great. Thankfully I have an all black build so it isnt noticeable. I may make a diy 120mm to 140mm though so I can make it fit correctly on my case.

> 3 dayI swaped out my ugly Noctua fans as I was moving my parts to a new case and wanted a more comprehensive build and couldnt be happier. These fans move alot of air without alot of noise. If you have the money you wont be disappointed in the quality and reliability of the Noctua Chromax series.
