> 24 hourI bought the NOCTUA NF-A15 PWM fan as a second fan for my NOCHUA NH-U14S TR4-SP3 heatsink. Fan is big enough it may not fit in your case, so I recommend a full size case. Fan is quality and comes with a 6 year warranty. Highly recommended.

> 24 hourIm sure this is an excellent fan, but potential buyers should be aware that this doesnt fit in a standard 140mm fan space.

> 24 hourAny serious computer enthusist knows noctua makes good fans. Expensive but good. I bought these fans thinking they would go over my H100i liquid cooler. It does not. They are too big to go side by side. Not the products fault but my own for not measuring. So I have a push pull now. One on top right and one on lower left. Works out good but doesnt look all that amazing.

> 24 hourI ordered this along with a NF-F14 PWM to replace the stock non-PWM fans on my NH-D14 CPU cooler. After installing these fans, I noticed a clicking noise common with PWM fans. After reading reviews and descriptions from Noctuas website, I was led to believe that Noctua had eliminated the dreaded clicking associated with PWM fans. I was ready to send these back and go back to the stock fans when I decided to make sure these were the culprits. After process of elimination, I determined it actually wasnt these fans, but one of the stock fans on my case! I hadnt noticed it before due to the stock NH-D14 fans being a little louder, but these are so quiet it allowed me to hear the subtle clicking from the stock Corsair AF140L on my case!

> 24 hourThis fan seems like a good fan, but is not the same fan that ships with the NH-D15. The key difference is that this fan runs at a max of 1200RPM while the NH-D15s NF-A15 runs at 1500RPM.

The NF-A15 is a premium quality quiet 140mm fan with a round frame that complies with Noctua’s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) standard. The NF-A15’s frame features 120mm mounting holes (105mm spacing) and has been enlarged to 150mm width in order to provide superior performance on today’s high-end CPU coolers. Featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 further improves the renowned quiet cooling performance of the award-winning NF-P14. Noctua’s custom designed PWM IC for fully automatic speed control and reference class SSO2 bearings ensure superb running smoothness and excellent long-term stability. Topped off with modular cabling and a Low-Noise Adaptor, the NF-A15 is a premium choice for the highest demands.
Round 140mm frame with 150mm width
The NF-A15 is tailor-made for use on today"s high-end CPU coolers: While its 150mm width matches those of most high-end heatsinks, its 140mm height doesn"t make it extend on top and thus ensures best case compatibility. The NF-A15"s standard 120mm mounting holes (105mm spacing) also make it an ideal performance upgrade for 120mm case or CPU fans.

Integrated anti-vibration padsIntegrated 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 bearingThe NF-A15 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. |
Flow Acceleration ChannelsThe NF-A15 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. |

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.
