> 3 dayI know the fan is working. My motherboard monitor shows the RPM of the fan. I cant hear it at all though, and I dont feel much air coming from it.

> 3 dayAs noted in various places - this fan works really well when working as a case fan, but the “intake” area needs to be unobstructed. Otherwise it doesn’t perform as well.

Mysterio
Greater than one weekEste ventilador es increible, el ruido es apenas perceptible, las orillas con goma evitan la vibración, tiene un flujo de aire justo para refrigerar el PC, los accesorios ayudan bastante en especial el reductor de voltaje y la extensión ya que el conector es algo corto. Lo que mas me llamo la atención es la garantia de 6 años lo cual indica que es un producto de excelente calidad.

> 3 dayChe dire?! Ottimo prodotto. Il prezzo è un pochino alto ma ne vale ogni centesimo. Il pacco è molto ben fatto, gli accessori in dotazione sono tanti e molto utili e la ventola fa quello che dice egregiamente. Amazon puntualissimo come sempre

> 3 dayIch habe die zwei rasselnden Gehäuselüfter meines neuen Gehäuses durch zwei Noctua NF-S12A PWM ersetzt. Solange sie heruntergeregelt sind, höre ich sie quasi gar nicht. Erst nach längeren rechenintensiven Tasks, wenn die Temperatur im Gehäuse ansteigt, legen sie hörbar los. Seltsamerweise stört mich das Geräusch aber gar nicht so sehr. Ich habe den Eindruck, dass ich hier vor allem die Luft rauschen höre und die Motoren nahezu lautlos arbeiten.

> 3 dayBin mit dem Lüfter vollauf zufrieden. Er ist im Gehäuse nicht zu hören und erzeugt einen guten Luftdurchsatz.Ist empfehlenswert.Er wird einwandfrei vom Motherboard geregelt.

> 3 dayI have a home music recording studio. My microphone and computer are in the same room and the mic will pick up any tiny noise coming from it. This fan is close enough to inaudible for my needs. Fantastic
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.
