> 3 daySulla qualità nulla da dire; Noctua una garanzia! sulla ventilazione non mi ha convinto al 100% la stessa Noctua la consiglia per casefan ma a mio parere se si vuole una buona ventilazione tralasciando un attimo la silenziosità punterei sulla F!

> 3 dayI bought these originally, not knowing that my system needed 3 pin connectors. I could have still used these fans with the 4 pin connectors but I would have needed to get a pair of adapters. Thats okay, I will hang onto them for a future system build.

> 3 dayI had a CPU heatsink fan fail after many years of service. Replaced that fan with this one, because its in my HTPC and require as close to silent as possible, which this fan is. So far Im 18 months in of 24x7 with no issues. Its awfully dusty in its location too, so its been able to weather the dust

> 3 dayThis is a great fan. they are my go to fan on every build. not the prettiest fan in the world and if you are planning to show off your build with a windowed case, i probably wouldnt go with the Noctua. but if what you care about is silence and cooling power, noctua is the way to go.

> 3 dayNice and quiet. Doesnt blast a ton of air, but its just so quiet.

> 3 dayIl top tra le ventole, vale veramente la pena spendere qualche soldino in più per questa ventola silenziosa e potente allo stesso tempo!

Greater than one weekHo corredato il mio computer di 4 di queste ventole, più una NF-P12 PWM sugli hard disk , dopo aver provato la qualità Noctua con il dissipatore NH-L12.

The NF-S12A marks the third generation of Noctua’s signature S12 series quiet case fans, which have received more than 250 awards and recommendations from the international press. Featuring a further refined blade design with Anti-Stall Knobs that works in tandem with the new AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frame, the NF-S12A improves the airflow/noise efficiency of its renowned predecessor by up to 8%. The PWM version sports Noctua’s custom designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise-Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1200 to 900rpm. Its superb running smoothness, SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for quiet case cooling
AAO frame
Noctua"s AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimisation) frames feature integrated anti-vibration pads as well as Noctua"s proprietary Stepped Inlet Design and Inner Surface Microstructures, both of which further refine the fan"s performance/noise efficiency.

Integrated anti-vibration padsIntegrated 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. |
SSO2 bearingThe NF-S12A features 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. |
Inner Surface MicrostructuresWith the tips of the fan blades ploughing through the boundary layer created by the Inner Surface Microstructures, flow separation from the suction side of the blades is significantly suppressed, which results in reduced blade passing noise and improved airflow and pressure efficiency. |
Scope of delivery
|
Anti-Stall Knobs
The NF-S12A"s Anti-Stall Knobs reduce flow separation phenomena in medium to high impedance situations and thereby increase the fan"s stall margin. This means that the NF-S12A is even more versatile than its renowned predecessor and can achieve better performance on heatsinks and radiators.
