Review on πŸ”ˆ Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM chromax Black.swap Premium Fan, 4-Pin (120x15mm, Black) - Quiet and Slim by Tawan Nuyok ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful quality, one hundred percent satisfied!

The fan is perfect in every way. In addition to the disadvantages mentioned above. I put it on blowout, but connected it to the CPU_FAN slot on the motherboard. At the same time, the tower stands as a liability, and 3 cm from the fan itself. In idle, it runs at 900 rpm and Chromax is not audible at all. In heavy loads, it works at 1500 to remove heat from the VRM and ssd m2. Only the flow and rustle of air is heard, but not the fan itself or the PWM controller. It turns out a very comfortable rustle, while the case is near the monitor. Auxiliary put Redux 120 blown up, working at 900 rpm. Noise like Chromax at 1200. There is one Noctua Redux for blowing, and so at similar speeds it makes more noise than a subject, and the airflow feels a little weaker. It remains to buy 140mm for blowing, and put all Redux auxiliary. Then there will be absolute silence and comfort. In general, the purchase fully justified itself, the noise was reduced by a factor of one and a half, and at the same time, the temperatures in the case did not change at all.

Pros
  • Air flow; Very low noise level (it is not the fan that is heard, but the flow); Complete set in the form of corners; The quality of materials is on top - plastic and fastening of the impeller. Soft but elastic corners. Thanks for the black color, otherwise I didn’t buy white-brown just because of the color.
Cons
  • Short cable; As usual for Noctua, this gives the impression of a fragility of the cable;
