Greater than one weekJust hoping this is enough to cool my threadripper pro. I’m using asus sage mobo and threadripper pro, noctua 120mm cooling. I replaced the thick fan which was pressed against my ram with two of these, one on each side. Hopefully they move enough air for me! I

Greater than one weekI put these in the front of my Fractal Meshify C to give my GPU more clearance. It worked out perfectly. These fans are ultra thin and still move a lot of air.

> 3 dayYou cant get any better fan the any of the Noctuas. This is the thin version and we use it to gain more space in our computer builds. Guaranteed for more hours than most other parts on your computer so if you want to be sure you unit stay cool and continues operating this is the fan to buy.

> 3 dayThese fans are ok for the size that they are. They do sound like delta industrial fans at max speed but it is quiet at around 1000 rpm. High quality components.

Greater than one weekPerfect for any SFF PC build. The connector is a bit odd though how it is really short with thin wires and then immediately has a nicer sleeved extension attached. In any case great fans just wish there wasnt a $6 premium for going with the chromax version but hey it looks great so who cares.
Having received dozens of awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines, the NF-A12x15 has established itself as a default choice when it comes to premium-quality slim 120mm fans. The chromax.black.swap edition combines the NF-A12x15’s signature quiet cooling performance with an attractive all-black design and a bundle of self-adhesive red, white, blue, green, yellow and black anti-vibration pads that allow the colour-customisation of the fan to match individual build colour schemes. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted premium-grade SSO2 bearing and more than 150,000 hours MTTF, the NF-12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap is the perfect choice for all users who value individual, focused build aesthetics just as much as class-leading quality and performance.
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.

Self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in 6 coloursThe NF-A12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 8 swappable, self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow respectively, which allow the fan to be fully colour-customised in order to coordinate it with other components or popular build schemes. |
SSO2 bearingThe 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. |
Metal-reinforced motor hubWith 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. |
Optional coloured cablesNoctua’s chromax line fans use a modular cabling system and come pre-fitted with a fully sleeved black NA-EC1 30cm cable. For refined colour coordination, white, red, blue, green and yellow 30cm NA-EC1 cables plus corresponding NA-YC1 y-cables are available separately. |
Maximising colour choices, the NF-A12x15 chromax.black.swap fan can be colour-customised using the included self-adhesive anti-vibration pads as well as optional coloured cables. This makes it ideal for enthusiasts looking for a true premium-grade fan that can be colour-coordinated with popular build themes such as all black, black & white or black & red.
