    These actually spin up a little higher than other noctua fans. I think they go to 1700/ 1800 rpm. This does make them a tiny bit louder at full speed but this can be fixed with a nice PWM curve setup in your motherboard or fan controller software if you prefer.

    I put 2 of these fans in a full tower case and they are performing beyond my expectations!!!

    The fan is nearly inaudible. I replaced the cooling fan on an older OTC 600w power supply on my computer. So far the power supply has not had any cooling issues with this fan. You really cant hear this fan unless you turn everything else off. In my case the case fans were much louder. Great product that lives up to its hype.

    Quiet and thin, perfect for the mini ITX build I just completed!.

    The low profile decent makes any system look aesthetically pleasing especially compared to a larger profile cooler. Better than stock Intel coolers but not as effective as a larger budget cooler. Ultra quiet!

    I needed a slimmer fan for my PC case to mount my Corsair H60 Properly into my case. This Noctua made it so I could properly mount my radiator and my thicker Corsair fan. Im very glad I purchased this fan. It is very well made and its very quiet as well. I would buy more Noctua products in the future. They were one of the only companies that sold a low-profile fan, and even though they have a premium price their fans are definitely very nice. The brown color scheme might be off-putting to some, but my case has a dark-frosted acrylic side, so I cant see the color too much, so Im not bothered by this at all.

    The fans are really silent and slim, exact what I was looking for. I recommend it.

    used two of these to replace the dead fans on my AMD R9 390. Works great.

The FLX version provides 1850/1400/950rpm speed settings via the supplied Low-Noise Adaptors in order to allow full flexibility in fine-tuning the fan for maximum ventilation performance or near-silent operation. Its superb running smoothness, reference-class SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for the highest demands

Metal-reinforced motor hub

With many larger-diameter slim fan designs, the shorter axis and bearing lead to a reduced running stability and lifespan. The NF-A12x15 uses a metal-reinforced motor hub, a measure typically found in high-speed industrial fans, in order to ensure Noctua’s signature stability and longevity.

Flow Acceleration Channels

The NF-A12x15 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise.

SSO2 bearing

The NF-A12x15 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.

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 mounting systems and fan clips used on heatsinks.

15mm slim design

Having a thickness of only 15mm, the NF-A12x15 is much slimmer than standard 120x25mm fans. This makes it ideal for typical slim fan applications such as low-profile CPU coolers as well as for freeing up space by replacing standard 120x25mm fans on tower coolers, radiators or in PC cases.
