> 3 dayTengo varios ventiladores de Noctua y nunca me han decepcionado. En este caso, venía en un estuche perfectamente presentado y probablemente sea tan silencioso como promete. El caso es que no he podido instalarlo en una workstation Z4 G4 de HP porque el conector de 4 pines viene moldeado de tal modo que es incompatible. Esto no es culpa de Noctua, sino de HP, pero creo que debería estar indicado con más claridad en la descripción del producto: si el ordenador es de marca, mejor ni lo intentes.

Greater than one weekInstruction on how to install the vibration dampeners could have been a little clearer but otherwise exceptional product.

> 3 dayQuiet. It also solved my problem where the computer would randomly freeze a few minutes after first startup. Who though a fan could do that? Electrical noise? Old fan was noisy.

> 3 dayThe best case cooler i had, its quiet you even notice that he is there. I could reduce a lot the noise of my desktop.

> 3 dayMy first Noctua fan, and wont be my last. Extremely high quality parts and packaging. You truly get what you pay for. The fan is very quiet and moves a decent amount of air. I use it as my rear exhaust fan in my Fractal Design Define C Mini.

> 3 dayDer Einbau ist super einfach, allerdings sollte man die Schrauben verwenden. Da die Gummi stopfen nicht sehr stabil sind. Der Lüfter ist sehr hochwertig verarbeitet und wirklich nicht hörbar.

> 3 dayBuona portata daria, molto silenziosa e costruzione robusta. Il colore puo piacere o meno, ma e riconoscibile per la qualita Noctua.
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.
