30-10-2024Quiet. It also solved my problem where the computer would randomly freeze a few minutes after first startup. Who though a fan could do that? Electrical noise? Old fan was noisy.

> 3 dayMan these fans really, really suck! Or blow, it depends on your orientation. After seeing how popular Noctua has become since my last computer build I decided to try them out on my rebuild for case cooling.

> 3 day数年前から使っていたファンをこれに交換してびっくり。ほとんど動いていないのではないかと思うくらい静かになった。もちろん、負荷が高くなると回転数が上がるのだが、それでも十分静かだと思う。いい買い物をした。耐久性はまだわからない。

> 3 dayThese works so well and are so quiet that I thought I didn’t plug them in. I had to look in my cases to make sure they were spinning from how quiet they are

Greater than one weekAls ich in meinem PC einen neuen CPU-Kühler (NOCTUA NH-U9S plus NOCTUA NF-A9 PWM) einbaute, habe ich auch diesen Lüfter mit Low Noise Adapter eingebaut. Er sitzt vorne im Gehäuse und zieht die Luft in den PC rein und bläst sie dann an den Festplatten entlang. Alle Sensoren zeigen niedrige Werte, die Drehzahl bleibt insgesamt niedrig und zu hören ist er fast gar nicht. Alle erforderlichen Montageteile und eine sehr gute bebilderte Montageanleitung liegen bei. Insgesamt sehr empfehlenswert.
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.
