> 3 dayWOW!!!! Now I know the difference between $13 fans and $20+ fans. Replaced my 2 cryorig fans on my radiator with these and it is night and day. The temps are around the same, but the noise level is non existent with the noctuas. I will be buying the 3 pin version of these fans for my exhaust.

Greater than one weekJust the quietest fan EVER!!!! Water cooled with dual fans got way too loud! Tried reducing fan speed, no good, dust off nothing quieted the old fans at all. I have these as a Push Me Pull you set up on the radiator, I used the Y connection to hook them to the same fan connector, now these are spinning at the same rate, and they are super quiet.

> 3 dayIm running on push configuration on a 360x120 rad. No noise, I cant see them so dont care about the colour and if there good enough for that Linus Tec guy on YouTube well they are fine by me.

> 3 dayAusgezeichneter Lüfter! Bin hellauf begeistert. Habe 3 Stk. für meine Wasserkühlung bestellt. Kühlt um bis zu 5°C mehr als die Standartventilatoren bei niedrigerer Umdrehungszahl (900 - 1000 rpm). Ausserdem sind sie sehr leise und laufruhig. Ein 1A Produkt welches aber auch seinen Preis hat. Absolute Kaufempfehlung.

Greater than one weekThese fans are great. Moves a lot of air and virtually silent. I used these to replace the stock fans on my Corsair H100i GTX cooler and my system went from quiet to having to visually check the fans to make sure they were even spinning. Also my CPU temp dropped by about 2 degrees over the stock fans. They are a little more expensive than other fans and only come in one color, which is why Im only giving these 4 stars.

> 3 dayAwesome as expected. They can be lowered to whisper-quiet levels with out turning off, and they still push a great amount of air for a radiator setup. Set 3 of them to 1000rpm in Speedfan and they are only barely audible from 2-3 feet away, yet still keep cpu temps within 5 degrees Celsius of my previous 3+3 fan setup that ran way louder and spun faster

Greater than one weekLo monté en un disipador big shuriken B. De serie era silencioso bastante silencioso pero su rendimiento era bastante malo...

> 3 dayFans really are a big improvement over previous icegiant x4 fans that were included with the cooler (ProSiphon Elite). High sound-reduction and cooling remains on par.
Teaming up eleven stator guide vanes with a specially conceived seven blade impeller, the NF-F12’s Focused Flow system creates outstanding static pressure and focuses the airflow for superior performance on heatsinks and radiators. At the same time, a wide range of advanced aerodynamic design measures, second generation SSO-Bearing and Noctua’s new, custom designed PWM IC for fully automatic control assures astounding quietness of operation. The NF-F12 comes with modular cabling, integrated anti-vibration pads and two speed settings for full flexibility. Its commanding performance, exhaustive set of features and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for use on air coolers, radiators and other pressure demanding applications.
Focused Flow frame
Designed for pressure demanding applications such as heatsinks and radiators, the Focused Flow frame features eleven stator guide vanes that straighten, channel and focus the airflow, which allows the NF-F12 to rival the performance of conventional fans running at much faster speeds.

Heptaperf ImpellerCustom designed for the new Focused Flow frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12"s seven blade Heptaperf impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quietness. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-F12 is the first fan to feature 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. |
Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control NotchesThe NF-F12"s stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help to spread the noise emission over a broader frequency spectrum and thus make the fan"s sound pattern more agreeable to the human ear. |
Scope of Delivery
|
Integrated anti-vibration pads
Integrated 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.
