> 24 hourThe other other well reviewed fans I tried operated quietly for the most part, but got loud at certain sustained RPMs with audible motor noise. For example, one set of fans was quiet, but when they hit 1200 rpm, they emitted and strange harmonic noise. I found that my Noctua fans stayed quiet through the whole range. They dont look fantastic. In fact they are a little ugly.

> 24 hourBravo, Noctua! You guys have just earned a customer for life. I bought four of your fans to replace a brand new, loud, rattling, Coolermaster Hyper Evo fan and some older Corsair fans in my rig. It is UNREAL how quiet they are.

> 24 hourThese are great little fans. The only downside to them is the colour, which does not affect me, but some people may not like it for their systems. If you dont care about the looks, then these are fantastic fans for a CP.

> 24 hourComme dhabitude avec les produits Noctua cest cher mais on en a pour son argent et surtout on a pas de surprises ! Il remplit sa fonction : il est silencieux et plus performant quun ventilo classique sur radiateur (ce pour quoi il est conçu).

> 24 hourAbsolutely Brilliant peice of Kit. Well worth the money and does an incredible job. Would recommend to anyone looking for a case fan. If you was looking for a fan this is guaranteed to make you happy. Very professional looks and design, works like a dream.
Teaming up eleven stator guide vanes with a specially conceived seven blade impeller, the NF-F12’s Focused Flow system creates outstanding static pressure and focuses the airflow for superior performance on heatsinks and radiators. At the same time, a wide range of advanced aerodynamic design measures, second generation SSO-Bearing and Noctua’s new, custom designed PWM IC for fully automatic control assures astounding quietness of operation. The NF-F12 comes with modular cabling, integrated anti-vibration pads and two speed settings for full flexibility. Its commanding performance, exhaustive set of features and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for use on air coolers, radiators and other pressure demanding applications.
Focused Flow frame
Designed for pressure demanding applications such as heatsinks and radiators, the Focused Flow frame features eleven stator guide vanes that straighten, channel and focus the airflow, which allows the NF-F12 to rival the performance of conventional fans running at much faster speeds.

Heptaperf ImpellerCustom designed for the new Focused Flow frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12"s seven blade Heptaperf impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quietness. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-F12 is the first fan to feature 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. |
Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control NotchesThe NF-F12"s stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help to spread the noise emission over a broader frequency spectrum and thus make the fan"s sound pattern more agreeable to the human ear. |
Scope of Delivery

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.
