Noctua NF-S12B redux-1200 PWM, High Performance Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 1200 RPM (120mm, Grey)

Not happy about the screws. They cut into the plastic fan case. I guess the mold machine is not precise enough to ensure the screws fit the fan case. Sturdy and quiet fan.

They seem like solid, quiet fans and at a reasonable price

What can I say about this product that has not already been said, it is a Noctua, it is wonderful. Support is amazing and stand by their product. I will infinitely recommend them along with all other tech people that I know.

I ordered three of these Noctua fans seeking a way to quiet down my new computer case, a Lian Li PC-V33B. The stock fans in the case were very audible while the computer was idle or running basic desktop apps. My friend actually asked if my space heater was on. I laughed and pointed at my new case.

This fan isnt meant to be one of the quietest, I gave it 5 stars because it preformed within expectations. With that being said, the noise isnt unbearable or annoying, but thats opinion oriented. It did, however, immensely increase the cooling of my case. I didnt have an exhaust fan before, just 3 intake (Generic RGB Corsair Case fans from a Crystal 460x), and 1 cooler fan (NH-D15s). I did also install another fan as a top exhaust, same type as the one on the NH D15s, but quality of air flow was most noticeable after installing the NF-S12B.

Definitely quiet while maintaining strong airflow. Worth the money

my computer case fan died, this replaced it, I like it

Like: easy to install, look modern, and most importantly, are super quiet - especially with the vibration rubbers.

Before I begin let me just say that I LIKE NOCTUA as a company, the problem is that the redux line is just not what I expected. Now don’t get me wrong, the Redux line is still filled with good fans for the price. You still get an amazing build quality with a decent unboxing experience and a 6-year warranty. However, you don’t get all of the accessories and internal parts that the normal Brown and Beige fans come with. I have 1 or more of every Noctua fan in every product line that they have introduced. That being said I went into this review with an open mind because their normal fans and industrial fans are absolutely amazing, there quiet and move a lot of air. Now when it comes to the redux line I can ignore the fact that they don’t come with any accessories or anti vibration mounts, and that they come in a different color (even though I prefer the gray color over the ugly brown color). That being said I cannot ignore the fact that these fans are particularly loud for what they cost. Obviously, you can change the speed of the fans in windows or use a hardware fan controller effectively making them extremely quiet, but if youre a person that doesn’t like or just all around can’t tinker with settings like that, these are not the fans for you. I know I just said that the fans are loud, however, I will admit that the fans are a lot quieter than most fans, for example, Corsair fans or most case fans. But at the end of the day, it’s up to the buyer to decide if the fans are good enough for them. For the price, I personally think that they are worth it and would recommend buying these if you need some high-quality fans on a budget.

The fan exceeded my expectations, excelent for the price
