Nice price, good quality.

Attached to the CPU cooler. The absence of noise was a crucial factor in selecting a refrigerator. In most cases, the NF-F12 did not crash. Up to 900 rpm, there are no audible indications of functioning; between 1200 and 2400 rpm, air movement is audible; over 2400 rpm, the sound becomes slightly unpleasant. So, be sure to display it in PWM. However, contrary to what some reviewers may have you believe, the P12 is limited to 1300 rpm, while the F12 has a margin up to 1500 rpm, thus the two coolers are not interchangeable. In conclusion, NF-F12 is best suited for a radiator, whereas NF-P12 is preferable for case ventilation.

Pros

Noctua was of flawless quality; it produced no unwanted sounds or vibrations. A hushed hush

Cons

Above 1200 mph, the fan noise is comparable to that of regular coolers, which isn't a huge drawback since at those speeds, 99 percent of coolers won't be any quieter.
