> 3 dayHave now replace cpu and gpu cooler with H55 and and replaced stock fan with Noctua NF-F12PWM. Perfect result! more air flow. Less noise and above all, much cooler system. Cpu is cooled by a single NF-F12PWM, Gpu is cooled by two NF-F12PWM in push-pull. never dreamed i could have a system with this little noise at these tempetures. I sincerely recomend this fan. money well spend.

Greater than one weekbought the thermaltake water 3.0 pro for an FX8350 build with Sabertooth 990FX R2. The stock fans from thermaltake are worthless. theyre as quiet as a boiler room but managed to keep the CPU temp at 35C at idle. replaced them with NoiseBlockers which could not keep the temp below 45C at idle and were not really silent. then I installed the these... the world is a better place now. The idle temp is 34C. I used Arctic Silver 5 with all the fans but will likely upgrade to the Gelid GC-Extreme.

> 3 dayAlthough the supplied Corsair fans worked fine on my Corsair Graphite 600T case, they were too loud even on idle. Read some online reviews of various replacements and the favorite seemed to be the Noctua NF-F12. They were not wrong, if you can handle the color, they are great fans. Since the case already had rubber washers installed for cushioning, it was easy to remove the cushions Noctua installs so they sit flatter and dont interfere with the intake grill. For some reason the Corsair fans used three pin connectors. The Noctua uses four pin which match up to the H100i liquid cooler fan leads. Dont know if it makes any difference on how the software reads fan speed, but they definitely run quieter, even at high rpms.

> 3 dayDrastically reduced noise and temperatures compared to stock fan on an aftermarket cpu cooler. I found out that these were pretty popular after installing mine but I can see what the hype is about.

> 3 dayOK, after a lot of reading I decided to fork out for these. I do not regret it- there is no price for silence. Now I can play games. The fans go full speed and the television remains at sane decibel levels as the wife is no longer raging and taking it out on the volume button. Bliss.
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.
