> 24 hourBeen a Noctua advocate for about 5 years now. Wont use anything else if I depend on it. I switch out all of my case fans with these cool blasting beauties, as well as, using their CPU fans/ heatsinks. I consistently get as good or better cooling as my buddies using middle of the road liquid cooling systems (of similar price point), but they are ohhhh soooo reliable. Cant say the same for my friends liquid pumps and fans :) Overclocking or not - these are my go to fans! 3 of these are now keeping my Haswell system in the low 50s under heavy load inside a Corsair Vengeance Series C70 case.

> 24 hourUn peu plus bruyant que je naurai cru pour ces Noctua NF-S12A PWM a 20€ piece tout de meme qui pourtant tournent seuleument entre 900 et 1200 tours (Une réelle utilité detre en PMW pour une si petite variation de vitesse)?

> 24 hourI prodotti noctua si sono rivelati anche migliori di quanto mi aspettassi: sono praticamente inaudibili, ricchi di accessori e perfettamente confezionati.

> 24 hourNo complains here, nice and quiet pc fan, is keeping my pc cool. I am running 3 of them on a fan controller.
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.
