> 24 hourNoctua is a no brainer buy. Every review holds them at the top for good reason. Their technology and support is unmatched.

> 24 hourDas Produkt wirkt hochwertig und bringt umfassendes Zubehör mit. Der Lüfter war etwas mühsam zu montieren - die Silikonpfropfen, die wahrscheinlich eine gute Lösung als Fixierung sind, benötigen halt bei der ersten Montage etwas Fingerspitzengefühl und Kraft. Der Lüfter ist in meinem PC nicht hörbar und macht seine Arbeit sehr gut.

> 24 hourPreso insieme ad altre 4 ventole Noctua per areare il mio pc. Temperature abbattute e molto silenzioso a regimi minimi, ovvio che poi facendoli partire a pieno regime tutti e 7 presenti nel case questo sembra un elicottero. Comunque tenendo sempre al minimo vado alla grande ed é freddo a sufficienza. La confezione denota una qualitá enormemente superiore alla media di altri prodotti. Eccezionale!

> 24 hourDo not use these fans on a heatsink or radiator, they will barely move any air through it. That being said when unrestricted, they move TONS of air compared to their static pressure counterpart, the NF-F12.I have 4 of these setup in a media cabinet where they have about 5 of open space in front and back and it drop the temperatures inside by about 35F. These fans are also very quiet and as always, Noctua has done it again.

> 24 hourOrdered this as a replacement for the original fans that came with my AIO cpu water cooler. The originals were a little loud so I tried these. After installing and turning the pc in I had to open the case again because I thought they were defective. Turns out they are just quiet. Have them now running at 1000rpm and still they are quieter than the originals which were running at 800rpm. Fyg the computer case is a full tower sitting underneath the desk. Even at 1200 rpm the fans are barely noticeable. Very impressed.

> 24 hourVentilateur totalement inaudible à basse vitesse. Évidemment à cette allure le débit en air nest pas énorme, mais avec un radiateur comme le Cooler Master Evo 212, cela suffit pour garder un processeur Skylake vers les 30-35 ° au repos, et si on règle bien le bios, il sadapte pour tourner suffisamment vite sous charge.

The NF-S12A marks the third generation of Noctua’s signature S12 series quiet case fans, which have received more than 250 awards and recommendations from the international press. Featuring a further refined blade design with Anti-Stall Knobs that works in tandem with the new AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame, the NF-S12A improves the airflow/noise efficiency of its renowned predecessor by up to 8%. The PWM version sports Noctua’s custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1200 to 900rpm. Its superb running smoothness, SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for quiet case cooling
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.

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-S12A 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. |
Inner Surface MicrostructuresWith the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency. |
Scope of delivery
|
Anti-Stall Knobs
The NF-S12A"s Anti-Stall Knobs reduce flow separation phenomena in medium to high impedance situations and thereby increase the fan"s stall margin. This means that the NF-S12A is even more versatile than its renowned predecessor and can achieve better performance on heatsinks and radiators.
