> 3 dayThe fans DID NOT WORK. Installation was a hassle - the brown vibration things provided do not go through the holes, and the screws are impossible to screw. You have to use all your force and it is a 2 person job just to get 1 screw in. In the end, the fans did not even spin. Complete waste of money, do not buy this.

> 3 daycant really complain much except the rubber mounting pins are hard to put it in. but if you have a knife, you can cut bit of meat out of that rubber pin to make it a bit easier to put through the mount holes. not a big deal.

> 3 dayIm a Noctua fan (see what I did there?) despite their odd color. I personally have become fond of it and they work amazing. The packaging is great, instructions clear, and everything feels like amazing quality.

> 3 dayWhen it comes to fans you cant get better than Noctua. I replaced 3 of my Noctua NF-F12 PWN case fans with these. They flow better and they are quieter. I cant hear them when they run.

> 3 dayCercavo una ventola silenziosa da sostituire a quella originale del case; dopo svariate ricerche in rete mi sono convinto a fare un piccolo investimento su queste Noctua tanto ben descritte ed apprezzate.

Greater than one weekhands down best case fan iv ever used/come across, the work it puts in is crazy and the noise level it puts out is next to none existent in my fractal define v5 case brilliant job noctua

Greater than one weekDer Einbau ist super einfach, allerdings sollte man die Schrauben verwenden. Da die Gummi stopfen nicht sehr stabil sind. Der Lüfter ist sehr hochwertig verarbeitet und wirklich nicht hörbar.

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 padsIntegrated 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 bearingThe 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 MicrostructuresWith 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
|
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.
