Greater than one weekDieser 120er kann sich wirklich nicht hören lassen, denn Ultra-Low-Noise ist hier Programm, die beiliegenden L.N.A (Low-Noise-) Adapter benötigt man eigentlich gar nicht.

> 3 dayIts a quiet, sturdy, and powerful fan, but it is extremely. I can only assume it is due to the material composing it, as I have never seen a tan/brown computer setup before.

> 3 dayGreat high-end replacement fans for my Synology DS1812 NAS box. Just a trivial unscrew/replace/screw/attach the cable and done. My couple pairs of non-Noctua fans have lasted about 12 months -- seemly due to dust causing bearing failure. I will report back if these last shorter/longer after 12 months.

Greater than one weekBest fans for my AIO radiator Ive ever used. The ones that came with my kraken x53 were noisy and had an audible hum to them. The noctuas keep my system cool and silent, just how I like it !

> 3 dayEDIT: Publishing an update. See below, and youll see that when connecting these fans to a 4 pin header they werent spinning. This is because my 4 pin headers on my mobo only provide 5v. When I connected these PWM cables to the 3 pin headers, they started working. Im not certain why, but I assume it has to do with 4 pin headers only being powered when needed, while 3 pin headers are always on. In any case, these fans now work and provide ample air flow.

> 3 dayBig improvement even from my old quiet cooler master fans.
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.
