> 3 dayVentola super come silenziosità, molto bella anche esteticamente, oltre ad non sentire alcun rumore sono come base di appoggio e fissaggio ammortizzate negli angoli. Sono molto soddisfatto e contento del prodotto.Marca Noctua in assoluto per me la migliore!. Nulla lasciato al caso anche come confezione veramente molto bella.

> 3 dayNeeded to replace a noisy stock rear Case Fan. This was our, Go To brand of choice. Connected directly to Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 Motherboard. Satisfied with Air Volume vs Noise. This Fan should outlast this PC System Build!

> 3 dayHab den Lüfter als Gehäuselüfter saugend hinten im Antec P280 Gehäuse und der Durchsatz ist wirklich sehr gut. Man spürt sofort vorne am Gehäuse wie er die Luft durch zieht. Leider wird er ab ca 800 U/min hörbar und ab ca 900 U/min etwas lauter. Ab 1000 U/min ist er dann schon unangenehm aber man muss gar nicht in diesen Bereich!!! Da auch schon mit ca 600-700 U/min der Luftstrom sehr stark ist muss er nicht hoch drehen. Das ist der Große Vorteil. Und wenn man doch mal extremen Luftdurchsatz braucht, kann es es eben auch.

> 3 dayEasily cool down my 10070 even at 260 ppm. And fits my MATX motherboard perfectly.

Greater than one weekThe quality of these fans are great but....I am not a fan of the mounting system. It does provide for a low noise mount but for my specific case it was more trouble than its worth. I have a Corsair Vengeance C70 case and the mounting knobs did not play nice with the proprietary grommets corsair uses. Also, given the location of the mount, it might be difficult even without the grommet issue. I would not, however, let that discourage you from buying this fan. It is great.

> 3 dayThis is a great fan with a lot of extras in the package. Its essentially silent, even without the quiet mode adapter. I recommend replacing all your case fans with these. However, the color scheme is pretty awful.
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.
