> 3 dayAdded three to the front of Corsair Carbide Series Air 540 High Airflow ATX Cube Case - Black. Put the two existing on top as exhaust. Im running two 1080 ti graphics cards. Dropped the temps by 10 degrees centigrade.

> 3 dayIf a mouse were to fart in the Arctic I think Id stand a better chance of hearing it over the fan 2ft away from me.

Greater than one weekThese fans are great. You do need though to alter the settings in your software to reduce the speed below 1000 RPM if you want them to be absolutely silent.

> 3 dayThis is the quietest and smoothest running fan Ive ever (Not) heard!!! I used two to ventilate a cabinet containing my living room NAS and they are completely undetectable to my ear at both the low and high speeds.

> 3 dayThis fan is at least 3 years old now. The horrible sound of the manufacturer fan was fixed and this one is still super quiet. Works great and good price.
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.
