Greater than one weekGran ventilador de 120mm, buen flujo de aire a la vez que proporciona poco ruido. Desde que conoci noctua solo compro esta marca, aunque es un poco mas cara que la competencia añorta calidad.

> 3 dayBefore writing this review, I had a Phanteks E400 modified for the CyberPowerPC pre-built system, and it came with two Phanteks fans— the back fan had lost impulse bearing motion, and there was only one fan in the front. My CPU was running latent up to 70° C.

> 3 dayho provato tanti produttori di ventole, ma Noctua è imbattibile. La qualità altissima del prodotto si nota già dallimballo, scatola curatissima ricca di illustrazioni e spiegazioni, il prodotto poi è leccellenza tra le ventole....qualità e tecnologia al top della categoria...non comprerei mai un altra ventola ...

> 3 dayThis thing seems a little pricey, but it is totally worth it best airflow fan i have.

> 3 dayGreat performance while being quiet and having the best support around. These fans are phenomenal, and I will probably be exclusively buying Noctua after dealing with their customer service.

> 3 dayHigh quality, very quiet. Comes will all the extra cables and adapter. Even the adapters are well done with protective shielding and heat shrink.

> 3 dayMassive amounts of airflow, plus i can barely hear it, it is quite literally the perfect computer case fan for the size. The only downside i have with this fan is the rubber anti-vibration mounts are quite challenging to get on if you dont have a lot of space for your hands, however its definitely worth the effort.
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.
