Greater than one weekthis is THE fan to have there is nothing that performs as good while being this quiet. forget about the looks of it and think about the amazing performance factor this provides.

> 3 dayI used these in a gtx h100i water cooler and they are dead quiet. Apparently they come in colors other than brown, but they are high enough in my case that I do not see them

> 3 dayI fitted this as a case fan - and in hindsight the A would have been better. BUT the system can run with the fans at minimum (my BIOS sets this to be about 650rpm) and stays very cool. At this range with the case open about 50cm from my ear (as I tested) I could *just* hear the fan start & stop. With the case shut I dont know if the PC is running unless I can see some indication! (I did have to replace the disks for SSDs though :-). And the CPU cooler...

> 3 dayPurchased to replace the stock fan on evo 212 heatsink, which used to run 2000rpm under full cpu load and keep my CPU under 65 C.. sounded like a jet engine.

> 3 dayQuiet fans and efficient. I dont know what else to add besides the fact that they are quiet, the color is hit or miss, and they are efficient.

> 3 dayReplaced a PWM fan from my coolermaster V8 as the bearings where going, the rubber stoppers around the corner made it a tight fit into the heat sink but I was able to keep them and insert the fan still.
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.
