> 24 hourLove this fan. I replaced the fan on my CoolerMaster 212 EVO and am much happier. The previous fan was making a grinding noise for the first few minutes of being turned on, and was quite loud. I didnt realize how loud it was until I replaced it and the sound of my computer (which has 6 high quality case fans) went from audible whoosh to silent. The old fan was that loud, and this is silent.

> 24 hourworks very well. My only complaint is that you have to look up which way it needs to be installed to push the air in the direction you want it to go. Generally, this is to pull the hot air out of the box. I looked but could not find any markings on the fan to tell me this...But, thats what youtube is for.

> 24 hourIt may seem expensive for a 120mm fan, and it is. However the difference between this and any run of the mill fan is is the efficiency of which it does its job. It is very quiet, even at full speed. All the included accessories are a nice addition, including the pre-installed vibration pads. It should hopefully last much longer than most, and has a nice warranty period.

> 24 hourDoesnt really push air hard enough for any overclocking, but its virtually silent and it does the job!

> 24 hourNothing else to say. King of computer fans. Yes it is expensive. Yes color is....not for everyone. But if you are looking for computer fans that performs excellent and silent, then get noctua. You will not regret it. I have purchase more than eight of noctua fans in varying sizes and I am satisfied with all of them. Only thing you will hear is PSU and HDD noise.

> 24 hourgreat replacement fan for my coolermaster heatpipe heatsink. Quiet and easy to install.
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.
