Noctua NF-S12A FLX, Premium Quiet Fan, 3-Pin (120mm, Brown)

Pros: All other fans are junk. These are so quiet you will need to look at them to ensure your self they are running.

excelent

This Noctua fan lives up to expectations. It is almost silent at full speed and if adjusted to a lower speed it still puts off plenty of air. I currently have 6 of these installed running about 3/4 speed and all I can hear is my water pump.

Moves the air while being quiet.

Very quiet...very satisfied

Awesome fans. I installed them for various low noise requirements and they have certainly met my expectations. Good air flow and extremely quiet. Highly recommended.

Aside from the anatomical medical color, lack of LED bling, these Austrian designed and Taiwan built fans are wonderfully designed and very quiet. The S12A FLX model ships with two cable variants that step down the power to reduce the RPMs (and noise) from a stock 1200 to 900 and 700. I use mine with power throttles and even at their full 1200 speed they are quiet when compared to my previous brushless fans. The dark brown rubber anti-vibration pads are soft and removable. Instead of screws, these fans come with stubby metal screws and soft silicon anti-vibration pegs that can serve to mount these to the outer case. I have used pairs of these to replace the push-pull stock fans that came with the Corsair Hydro coolers on both of my home computers and am very happy with the reduced noise levels. These fans come with a six year warranty

Mounted 2 in the ceiling of our ice castle to circulate the warm air. Wired into the 12v lights and built a frame around them to match the wood in the shack. They dont move a lot of air, but enough to keep the warm air constantly moving and not cook the people on the top bunks ar night. Wired without the speed adjusting harness. You can hear them some, but not enough to keep anyone up at night. They use almost no power and were easy to mount.

I tried the Arctic F12 Pro that a lot of other people used but I didnt like that the air direction and CFM was different than the factory fan (although it probably doesnt matter). Instead I tried this one, which is a normally shaped muffin case fan so you can mount it as an intake fan like the stock.

Fantastic fans. Quiet and effective. Im a lifetime customer because of this product.
