> 3 dayAbsolutely as advertised. These fans are silent yet they move air keeping the computer cool. A dramatic improvement over the stock CoolerMaster fans that came with the case.

Greater than one weekFantastic fan. So quiet and yet pushes so much air. I added it to my case with my other fans and I cant wait for the others to quit so I can replace them with these. Good job Noctua on a quality fan for a great price that does the job perfectly!

> 3 dayIf your case fan is noisy, just replace it with this one. It is super quiet. Your computer shouldnt sound like a jet taking off.

> 3 dayNoctua has long been one of the best manufacturers of PC case and cooler fans both because of their good airflow/static pressure and their noise level relative to performance. Their redux line attempts to bring the premium you generally pay for their products closer to that of other average case/cooler fans and they do a great job of it. What you end up with is a flat grey no frills fan that in my opinion looks much better them the beige and brown combo of their normal fans, while also delivering much of the performance of their normal fans as well for about half the cost. These fans do not come with any accessories, just 4 screws to mount them in you case and thats it.

> 3 dayVery quiet little 120 mm fan that moves a nice amount of air. These replaced a pair of case intake fans called the Ultra Kaze (by Scythe). For some reason, I had been enticed by the sheer power of the Ultra Kaze fans, but the noise was really starting to bother me. This little Noctua fan is nice and quiet, and it draws a sufficient amount of air into my case to handle the heat produced by overclocking. I kept the same overclock settings after installing this fan, though your mileage may vary. I like the new gray color of Noctuas Redux line.

> 3 dayThese fans are quiet on their own, but to me at least they have a slight annoying hum at full speed. This is easily solved with the low noise adapters installed, but low noise means low RPM. Although I will admit even with the low low noise adapters installed, this fan seems to blow more air [slightly] than the 900RPM model. Also not a big deal if you install many of these fans in your computer case.

> 3 dayI wouldnt say that Im an expert on 120mm fans, but I have tried about 6 different kinds ranging from stock case fans to high end models. This fan is absolutely outstanding and I would not hesitate to buy another one. This fan is an excellent airflow fan for bringing air into the case or pushing it out. Be aware that this is Noctuas no frill line and doesnt include their usual gambit of accessories. Only the fan is included in the box without any adapters, extensions, or voltage changers. If you need a silent 120mm fan with impeccable build quality, looks (subjective), and airflow-- look no further. I HIGHLY recommend this fan to anyone looking for silent airflow for cases of any size.

Designed for efficient case ventilationTypical PC case ventilation applications require high airflow but only medium static pressure. The NF-S12B has been specifically designed for high airflow efficiency and low noise in order to provide best results in these so called low impedance applications . |
SSO-BearingCombining the proven concept of hydrodynamic bearing with an additional magnet that supports the self-stabilisation of the rotor axis, Noctua"s time-tested technology has become synonymous with supremely quiet operation and exceptional long-term stability. |
Bevelled Blade TipsReducing critical rotor stator interaction, Bevelled Blade Tips permit to combine extended leading edges and a higher blade surface area with quieter operation and thus form a cornerstone of the fan"s outstanding efficiency. |
Colour-customisable with NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration padsThe fan’s frame can be outfitted with Noctua’s chromax line NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads. Available in black, red, blue, white, green and yellow, these pads not only damp minute vibrations but also allow the fan to be colour-customised in order to coordinate it with popular build colour schemes! |
