Review on Noctua NF A12X25 FLX 3 Pin Premium by Terry Herrera

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good fan, but no longer works twice

Good fan, quiet, too quiet. I bought this fan to replace my 4-pin fan (Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM which was out of stock in September). for an hour and left it on the login screen I got a little paranoid as it's a good fan. Just yesterday when I was working on my computer it felt hot, I checked AND THE FAN DID NOT SPIN, how serious? I don't know if it's my motherboard or fan, I didn't have that before as I had a 4 pin fan (the reason I replaced the last one was because it was a bit noisy so yeah, now I see the Noctua NF - A12x25 PWM back in stock and I'm just going to install it with just the rubber base and everything I did with this fan (which I didn't do with the previous one) but yes, noctua, your fans are so quiet I can't know if it doesn't work and that could be bad especially if it decides to stop spinning, it's been the only fan I've ever had trouble with (it usually takes a quick Reboot until it works again but yes) i will keep supporting you guys but anyway this fan made me paranoid and nearly overheated my computer yesterday.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Almost everything there
