NF-F12 PWM chromax.black.swap

I needed an extra fan to add to my NH-U12S so I purchased another F12 for a push-pull configuration.Firstly, as with Noctua products the packaging was extremely solid, arriving with anti-vibration pads in numerous colours to suit different builds. I stuck with the black ones as i already had the extra thick black ones from the Chromax U12S.The fan comes with an extension cable which was crucial for getting it to a Y splitter on the backside of my case, making my build neat and tidy. However, this fan does not come with a Y splitter so you will need to purchase that separately should you feel you need it.The fan is extremely quiet, only really getting loud at very high RPM (1300 or so) but since there are two now on my heatsink I very rarely hear them over my case fans (Corsair ML140s). The Noctua quietness reputation certainly holds up with these F12s.These help to keep my CPU temps around 30-33 degrees at idle and around 50-55 degrees whilst gaming.If I could buy 3/4 for my case I would, however these are relatively expensive fans. They are absolutely worth it in my opinion for the noise and airflow performance alone though, but they aren't available to buy in bulk (anymore) which is a shame.Overall, this is an extremely well performing fan with great airflow, noise levels and aesthetics, with the only minor drawback being the price.

So previous to buying these fans I had Corsair fans that came with my AIO, to say they were loud would be an understatement, more like a jet engine taking off.So I went for these and thought they can’t be any worse.So after buying 6 of these all I can say is that I was blown away(no pun intended), they are so quiet, and the airflow is amazing my 3070 graphics card(yes they do exist) used to run at a temperature of 55 degrees while idling, now it runs at 34 degrees.Even when the fans are on 100% they aren’t annoying and I would say they sound like a small desk fan(remember I have 6 of these). I would doubt anyway would have fans running at 100%, if you do then you need a better airflow case.Also you can change the colours of the corners, you get these rubber edges that help reduce vibration, I chose white but you can chose what ever colour suits you, they look very smart, and they are easy to mount.Anyway, I can’t recommend them enough, they may cost more than some, but are worth the money.

Works great. Not too noisey that its borthersom and keeps the pc cool

Owning these is like owning designer clothing or a pair of designer shoes: You can't get much better than this, but you can still get good options for far less money.Pros:- Unmatched performance for heatsinks and radiators.- Near silent at low and medium loads, and non-intrusive at high loads- Clean and stealthy appearance, ideal for blackout or two-tone PC builds- Changing anti-vibration pads is a breeze- Decent build qualityCons:- Below-average performance for case airflow- Cheaper fans, such as Arctic's P12 fans and bq's Silent Wings and Shadow Wings offers similar (or a little worse) noise-normalised performance at a much lower price

These fans make a pleasant operating sound. By that I mean you can only hear the whooshing of the air they move, rather than any horrible buzzing or whining noises other fans can make. If you find fans making buzzing or rattling or whining noises annoying, then get these, you will hear a big difference. Very good quality fans. These have good static pressure, so use then as radiator or heatsink fans.

I highly recommend these PC case fans. I purchased 3 to complete my gaming PC.They are super quiet, whilst still offering top notch performance.They are more expensive than others... but I would still highly recommend them.I'm planning on buying another 2 to replace the fans that came with my case, as they are very loud in comparison.

Looks good and the most important factor is it is very quiet and cools my system nicely.I like the different colour dampeners also.

Replaced my case fan SP120RGB's with these, had high expectations and they have been met! Definitly allot quieter and better air flow.Each fan has 4 corner peices of the same color, should have been 8 imo but i guess you can buy more if you really want to.There is a cable extension adapter close to the fan frame which can get in the way, for me i had to rotate the fans 90degrees so that the cable extension adapter was to the side, otherwise i would not have been able to stack my front fans properly as it causes a cm gap almost if left in the way.....
