> 24 hourI have used Noctua fans for all my builds in the last6 several years with no disappointment. Quiet reliable fans not pretty but very effective. My closed loop AIO has all fans replaced with Noctua.

> 24 hourIl silenzio regna sovrano e mi piace pure il colore, anche la confezione non scherza, nulla è lasciato al caso. Degno di nota sono le prolunghe di alimentazione e la loro cura nei dettagli.

> 24 hourSilencioso y muy bueno, mueve mucho aire con poco ruido, sólo se oye el movimiento del aire a través. A velocidad máxima se oye un poco, pero son 1300 revoluciones. Sigue siendo ruido de aire, nada mecánico. Se oye mucho menos que el SP 120 incluido con la corsair 400c que tengo.

> 24 hourI was looking for a way to quite down the case fans in my pc, which I use in a small room. I switched out three case fans with the Noctuas and noticed a huge improvement. Installation was easy and the 4 pin design allows the mother board to keep speeds down when extra cooling is not needed. Even at higher speeds, the fans are still quiet. The main noise heard now is the hard drive.

> 24 hourIts a really big upgrade if you are using stock coolers. Quiet and cool. Definitely worth while using them at 3am.
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.
