NF-A12x15 PWM, Premium Quiet Slim Fan, 4-Pin (120x15mm, Brown)

Love these fans, they all look the same though unfortunately so I keep buying and returning. They’re decent quality and decent price. Won’t break the bank too much. Quite easy to install, click click. Works quite well, and doesn’t sound too loud. What else can you ask for? Also size wise even though it’s big, it’s meant to be. Fits well and cools well.

Haven't tested the radiator fan-temp, but on full speed, it is a bit noisy than 1350rpm Arctic F12, which I give 5 stars without hesitation. The air flow is concentrated comparing with Arctic F12, which feels like a ring air flow. I did feel the air pressure is a tad stronger at full speed. To be honest, if Arctic makes 15mm fans, I will not buy this one, because Arctic fan gave me good experience, and also provides 6 years warranty. Only reason to buy this was because I need to put 360 radiator into Define C TG, but there is not much space for regular 25mm fans. All things putting aside, this fan is excellent, only con would be the high price. However, You will get some spitter/extender cables, so considering those prices, it is fine. It is more like a fan combined with some accessaries sold for a relatively high price. Very quiet, very quality build, soft pads are big pluses. One more thing I noticed was when it is running at full speed, fan blades are invisible, which is interesting. I like it. Maybe that's the reason it used such color. I didn't plan on this review, so it is completely write as I think. Finally, I decided to change 4 stars to 5 stars. It is expensive, but everything else related to a fan is satisfying. I only have one fan, so I cannot test the radiator performance, so I will skip that. Final thoughts: For my current build, a relatively large case, I tend to use Arctic fans for 800-900rpm which return a really good temp result with almost no noise at all. If I need to build a tight small form case, I will definitely go with this one. Quietness is the only important thing for me. Otherwise, there are tons of cheap fans provide similar performance with jet engine noise.

Very quiet fans noctua does it again. There is one issue, If you’re using them for intake fans do not screw them all the way in as the middle of the fan does start to touch and rub causing a lot of noise. I also should’ve bought reverse blade ones but other than that they’re really great for itx builds as it allows for more clearance for the gpu fans to intake as well.

My Onkyo TX-NR7100 was constantly hitting triple digits (Fahrenheit), so a cooling solution was definitely needed. I’m equally not fond of the aesthetics of just placing fans over the receiver’s exhaust vents (I needed front exhaust anyway) or the prices of the much more visually appealing Infinity AIRCOM products, so it was DIY time. There are plenty of less expensive fans that I could have used, but I feel like Noctua brings a little more to the table than the others and I was still able to make this for half the cost of a front exhaust AIRCOM S10. Any other fan would have required a PWM control or adjustable voltage power adapter to reduce RPMs for quieter operation, but Noctua had me covered with the included LNA (low noise adapter) cables that drop the noise level down to a whisper quiet 34 dBA (combined) while providing solid airflow at 83 CFM (combined). I can faintly hear the fans from my main listening position that is 12’ from the receiver if the room is perfectly quiet, but that noise completely disappears at even the lowest volumes I listen to. The cooling is excellent with the highest temp I’ve seen with my laser thermometer being about 89F with the receiver’s volume up to 65 (which is the loudest I ever go), but most often the temp stays around 83F-84F, which is pretty much ideal. Exceptional materials and build quality, excellent airflow to noise ratio, a 6-year warranty, and the insane 150,000 hours MTBF made these fans an easy choice for my project.

Expensive? Yes. Worth it? Yes. Replaced a cheap fan in my new JONSBK N2 NAS case with the quiet fan dongle and it reduced the fan noise to zero. Fan quality is obviously top notch and one of the best performing fans available for the sound level.

Absolutely love this fan. Colors are beautiful and will never get tired of it. Fans are dead silent when at idle - and under load there's no droning or annoying sounds, just air being pushed around. Just amazing, well worth the money.

So I was building a new PC finally after over 5 years on the old one without upgrading a single thing. I decided I wanted to go with an AIO water cooler on this new build and I picked up a case that was setup with that in mind. Unfortunately I didn't think to consider the clearance on the motherboard and heatsinks of the memory and when the time came to install I found the motherboards memory slots were way up at the top of the board and the giant "wings" that made up the memories heatsinks made that problem even worse. When I installed the AIO with the fans that came with it they actually slightly covered the memory slots to the point even a stick without a heatsink wouldn't fit in there (just barely). I knew I'd seen thin form-factor fans before and I know Noctua has a great reputation (aside from their ugly color scheme). I picked these up and they fit on the AIO with ease and provided just enough space for the memory sticks to fit in the slots successfully. Best part is these are rated even better than the fans that came with the AIO in the first place and they are very quiet. It seems price is the only drawback to these fans as they match or exceed your average 120mm in all other respects. Of course, there's also the ugly colors but luckily on the roof of my case they aren't really seen anyway.

What a waste of money! Started up with a high pitched sound And never stoped until I turned off the PC..

Using this fan primarily because of it being slimmer than most fans, because I have mounted this on the side of my case as an intake fan to blow air over my GPU. Installation is extremely simple, using the anti-vibration rubber mounts. The fan moves an reasonable amount of air considering its small size, and helps to keep my GPU a touch cooler being under a direct stream of cool air. Fan is 4-Pin so is PWM capable. I run the fan on average at 40% most of the time and the fan is completely silent. The temperature of my case does not reach temperatures required to push the fan to its limit very often. Fan comes with cable extension lead and low noise adapters to run the fan at lower voltages, but they really are not necessary with this fan I recommend this for anyone with tighter space requirements in their case.

Pros: its Noctua, slim and quiet. Cons: sleeved cable is hard to manage.
