    Great design and very quiet. It does a great job with the other Noctua fans in keeping the PC case cool even when the CPU and video card are working hard.

    Utilizzata come ventola di estrazione nella parte posteriore dal case è davvero ottima, silenziosissima e qualità al top.

    Very awesome fan, so quiet I had to turn on SpeedFan just to make sure it was running!

    Utiliser pour refroidir ma freebox, il est alimenté en 8V et ne fait aucun bruit: jai du vérifier plusieurs fois sil ne sétait pas arreté.

    Ventilateur 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.

    My computer was running hot because my one stock fan wasnt cutting. These fans had great reviews and are renowned for the quietness, so I got 2. They work great, the corner where my PC is is noticeably cooler but quiet they are not. The two fans together generate so much sound I have to wear headphones to try and drown it out.

    This is a great fan. they are my go to fan on every build. not the prettiest fan in the world and if you are planning to show off your build with a windowed case, i probably wouldnt go with the Noctua. but if what you care about is silence and cooling power, noctua is the way to go.

    Le ventole della Noctua continuano ad essere il punto di riferimento per tutti i concorrenti che vogliono avvicinarsi alla perfezione assoluta.

    I love these as much as you can love a computer fan. They replaced some aging fans. The sound level dropped, so thats good.

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.
