    really nice fans, i myself got them because of all the good reviews. not as good airflow as everyone says but still its good enough. I dont like the color scheme but i got them for the performance not appeal. Overall really good fans

    Tengo varios ventiladores de Noctua y nunca me han decepcionado. En este caso, venía en un estuche perfectamente presentado y probablemente sea tan silencioso como promete. El caso es que no he podido instalarlo en una workstation Z4 G4 de HP porque el conector de 4 pines viene moldeado de tal modo que es incompatible. Esto no es culpa de Noctua, sino de HP, pero creo que debería estar indicado con más claridad en la descripción del producto: si el ordenador es de marca, mejor ni lo intentes.

    Ho usato la ventola per estrarre aria calda dalle parti superiore e posteriore di un case I-Tek. Pienamente soddisfatto sia dalla qualità che dalla silenziosità (ho utilizzato anche le ventole Arctic, che costano un terzo ma il che non possono certamente essere definite silenziose), un po meno del prezzo: venti euro per una ventola sono una cifre di tutto rispetto, forsanche eccessiva. Nessuno ci obbliga a comprarle, e saremo sicuramente ripagati da una qualità costruttiva senza pari e dal relativo confort acustico. Tornando indietro posso dire che ripeterei lacquisto senza riserve, ma non attribuisco cinque stelle unicamente per una questione economica.

    A priori, da que pensar que por el diseño de las palas iba a mover un gran caudal de aire (y más siendo específico para eso) pero debido al bajo ruido, el caudal de aire es reducido. Vienen con varios accesorios (que no usarás, probablemente) y el ventilador. La calidad en sí, es alta, no vamos a engañar a nadie, por 20€ un ventilador tiene que tener una calidad máxima y éste la tiene.

    Great fan.. very quiet. It took only an hour to replace the fan in my NAS... QNAP TS 869 pro

    Noctua e basta, si riesce solo a sentire laria sulle mani, il rumore è talmente fastidioso (scherzo!) che non so se è in funzione oppure no.

    Cant hear the fans, but just the whooshing of the air these guys push through my case. Looks pretty stylish if you ask me, as they have a very well known color scheme. Granted you could get some other brands will similar performance for have the price, but Noctuas are Noctuas.

    Buen caudal de aire. A máxima velocidad es muy silencioso y como es de velocidad variable (PWN, 4 pins) y nunca va a tope, tienes que mirarlo para saber si gira, porque no lo oyes. Viene con gomas antivibración, tornillos y topes de sujeción y varios prolongadores del cable para que no tengas problemas al conectarlo.

NF-S12A PWM HeaderNF-S12A PWM Header

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 pads

Integrated 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 bearing

The 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 Microstructures

With 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

  • NA-RC7 Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A)
  • NA-YC1 4-pin PWM y-cable
  • NA-EC1 30cm extension cable
  • 4x NA-AV1 anti-vibration mounts
  • Fan screws

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.
