> 3 dayIn a quest to reduce the noise in my PC, I installed these fan have been very happy!

> 3 dayNoctua fans are some of the best, if not the best, fans out there. I had an open spot in my case for 1 more fan, and since I wanted positive air pressure in it, I got this fan. It moves a ton of air, even at low RPMs. They are PWM, so you can control the fans speed for noise reduction even though this is by far the quietest fan in my case. If I could afford it, I would replace all my fans with these.

> 3 dayWorks incredable well on my CPU coolermaster radiator. The fan runs at half the speed as a normal fan, but offers the same amount of cooling. Alsome enginering!

Greater than one weekThese are real quiet fans, almost too quiet! Shipping was quick, packaging was easy and secure, and installation was a hitch.

> 3 dayWaited 5 months to do this review. The fan has been working great and has clearly made a difference to my PC. Recommended. Id get it in black now that option exists.

> 3 daySuper quiet. Used it for my CPU fan and I can barely hear it even though my PC is sitting on top of my desk. Even at full speed its barely a whisper.
Teaming up eleven stator guide vanes with a specially conceived seven blade impeller, the NF-F12’s Focused Flow system creates outstanding static pressure and focuses the airflow for superior performance on heatsinks and radiators. At the same time, a wide range of advanced aerodynamic design measures, second generation SSO-Bearing and Noctua’s new, custom designed PWM IC for fully automatic control assures astounding quietness of operation. The NF-F12 comes with modular cabling, integrated anti-vibration pads and two speed settings for full flexibility. Its commanding performance, exhaustive set of features and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for use on air coolers, radiators and other pressure demanding applications.
Focused Flow frame
Designed for pressure demanding applications such as heatsinks and radiators, the Focused Flow frame features eleven stator guide vanes that straighten, channel and focus the airflow, which allows the NF-F12 to rival the performance of conventional fans running at much faster speeds.

Heptaperf ImpellerCustom designed for the new Focused Flow frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12"s seven blade Heptaperf impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quietness. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-F12 is the first fan to feature 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. |
Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control NotchesThe NF-F12"s stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help to spread the noise emission over a broader frequency spectrum and thus make the fan"s sound pattern more agreeable to the human ear. |
Scope of Delivery
|
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.
