> 3 dayEasy install, i just had dificult to use the rubber fixers, and it doesnt fix totally, it just holds the fan to dont drop in the case

> 3 daySilent, powerful, the perfect fan for my PC exhaust. I have it arranged vertically, blowing hot air from the top. It hasnt made a noise yet.

> 3 dayI purchased these fans to replace two cooler master fans that seemed to be giving out. I have a corsair 300 r case and my old fans which were on the side panel were making a very annoying noise that I could hear from other rooms. I tried giving them some TLC but it didnt help much. I got fed up having to hear that so I decided to try these noctua fans. They were super easy to install and now the noise is GONE. I dont know if I necessarily needed to go with these fans, maybe others wouldve been fine for noise as well, but these are extremely quiet. I dont really do any heavy over-clocking or anything crazy so my need for cooling may not be the same as other people. That being said, I did notice a drop in temperature after installing these fans, so Im assuming theyre doing their job well. Though at this point I really only care that theyre extremely quiet (for emphasis).

> 3 dayHo montato la ventola col riduttore di velocità incluso, in questo modo la velocità si attesta intorno ai 1000rpm (senza riduttore andava circa a 1250rpm). È molto silenziosa, ma come detto da altri acquirenti, si sente il flusso daria.

> 3 dayVentola super come silenziosità, molto bella anche esteticamente, oltre ad non sentire alcun rumore sono come base di appoggio e fissaggio ammortizzate negli angoli. Sono molto soddisfatto e contento del prodotto.Marca Noctua in assoluto per me la migliore!. Nulla lasciato al caso anche come confezione veramente molto bella.

Greater than one weekGestita tramite PWM non ha bisogno del riduttore LNA. Lho portata fino a 350 giri con PWM al 10% sulla M/B ASRock Phantom Gaming 6 (ottima anche per la gestione delle varie ventole): nessun ticchettio di spin-up/spin-down, nemmeno a 350 giri, che invece si avverte a bassi giri su altre ventole provate (Nanoxia, Termaltake, Scythe).

> 3 dayExcelente ventilador, lo usé para bajar la temperatura de dos discos NVME M.2 sin embargo cual fue mi sorpresa al tener una baja de temperatura global en el case. Lo instalé en la parte inferior de mi Case Thermaltake y mantiene la temperatura alrededor de los 30 grados. Cabe mencionar que tengo el procesador Core i5 8600k en overclock a 5000 Mhz. Agrego imagen con detalle (Addlink y Force son los NVME M.2 y en color rojo parte izquierda se puede ver la temperatura del procesador). Totalmente recomendado este Fan !!

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.
