    Ventola eccezionale ed inudibile. Ne comprerò unaltra per il frontale del case. Questo completamente chiuso dai pannelli laterali non lascia udire un benchè minimo rumore, incredibile. Non pensavo che un flusso daria, che comunque genera uno spostamento di volume fosse così silente con questa ventola da 120 mm. Ho preferito fissarla con le viti in dotazione anzichè con i gommini antivibrazine. Il risultato è lo stesso: inudibile.

    Running it at light speeds for spot cooling, in front of the PCI cards and NVME drives, in a 4U case. Pretty much silent, moves a decent amount of air, and have effectively dropped chipset temps on the PCI cards and NVME drives. Success! All the other fans are Noctua jobbies, so matches as well.

    Dead silent with the low-noise adapter. Keeps my i7 system nice and cool.

    Sehr schnell Lieferung. Der Lieferumfang ist luxuriöse und die Lüfter sind bei mir, geregelt unhörbar. Bei voller Drehzahl, hört man nur den Wind ein wenig rauschen, aber kein lüftergeräuch

    I replaced all the fans in my case with Noctua Fans. The only sound my machine makes is the quiet hum of the water pump for my AIO Cooler. This upgrade was a bit pricey ($70 for 4 fans) but in the end totally worth it. Temps are stable and low on my Overclocked i5 even with all the fans using the included low noise adapters which limit fan RPM. Could not be happier with this purchase.

    Super quiet, exactly what i expected from Noctua. Comes with many cables to fit your every need

    Perfoms exactly as advertised. Ultra quiet even without the ULN, and cooling performance is phenomenal.

    Pros: Quiet, moves a lot of air, high quality bearings

    Long life, easy to install, and low noise. What more could one want in a case fan.

    These fans are top of the line. The only issue is the color. Works great and is very quiet. Have been a customer for years. I will use them anytime I need to add a fan or replace the cheat ones put in most systems.

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.
