Greater than one weekZero complaints, its Noctua. Runs quiet and moves a lot of air.

12-06-2025These fans cool effectively at low rpm’s given you buy correct type of fans. I have static pressure fans as pull configuration on my 360 aio and airflow redux throughout rest of the case to exhaust. I previously had cheap antec 120m rgb fans, switching to these noctuas dropped my idle temps to about 32° down from 41°. Only gripe is pwm cables are fairly short so plan on getting extenders/hub if you have a larger case.

> 3 dayGood quality fans that work quietly. A bit more expensive, but worth it.

> 3 dayIve used the Be Quiet fans on several builds and these are just better. They feel more substantial and even at higher RPMs their noise is minimal. They also dont seem to have those ultrasonic or subsonic frequencies cheaper fans suffer from. I sit next to this computer all day long and Im very happy that I used these.

> 3 dayLOVE these Noctua fans! I replaced all my case fans and my CPU fan with these redux models and could NOT be more satisfied!! They were the perfect fit for silencing my sound dampening case to ridiculous levels. I even like the colors better than the standard Noctua line of cream and maroon. These are a great deal and a win-win for anyone that wants Noctua silence and quality without the high price point of standard Noctua lines of products!

> 3 dayThis fan is very quiet especially compared to my Corsair AF120 (which was running at a lower speed) using this as exhaust, nice unboxing experience, nice sleeving and installation hardware included.

> 3 dayI originally mixed these in with my stock case fans. That was stupid. Once I removed all of the crappy stock fans, the noise level dropped to near zero. Quiet fans make such a difference!

> 3 dayQuiet until you ramp them up to 50% but otherwise pushes lots of air without too much noise

Greater than one weekI ordered three of these Noctua fans seeking a way to quiet down my new computer case, a Lian Li PC-V33B. The stock fans in the case were very audible while the computer was idle or running basic desktop apps. My friend actually asked if my space heater was on. I laughed and pointed at my new case.

> 3 dayThe best fans on the market. The redux fans man not come with all the bells and whistles, but the color is sooooo much better. The price helps a little too! I replaced a server fan with this guy and was able to drop the noise level very noticeably!

Designed for efficient case ventilationTypical PC case ventilation applications require high airflow but only medium static pressure. The NF-S12B has been specifically designed for high airflow efficiency and low noise in order to provide best results in these so called low impedance applications . |
SSO-BearingCombining the proven concept of hydrodynamic bearing with an additional magnet that supports the self-stabilisation of the rotor axis, Noctua"s time-tested technology has become synonymous with supremely quiet operation and exceptional long-term stability. |
Bevelled Blade TipsReducing critical rotor stator interaction, Bevelled Blade Tips permit to combine extended leading edges and a higher blade surface area with quieter operation and thus form a cornerstone of the fan"s outstanding efficiency. |
Colour-customisable with NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration padsThe fan’s frame can be outfitted with Noctua’s chromax line NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads. Available in black, red, blue, white, green and yellow, these pads not only damp minute vibrations but also allow the fan to be colour-customised in order to coordinate it with popular build colour schemes! |
