Review on πŸ”‡ Noctua NF-A20 FLX, High-Quality Silent Fan, 3-Pin (200x30mm, Brown) by Vassil Kombaev ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

I'm extremely delighted with the upgrading from the BitFenix 200mm Pro to the Noctua, except than the fact that it was a bit more expensive. They appear to blow in the same direction, despite the fact that they are slightly less noisy when moving at the same speed. And in contrast to phoenixes, all fans have the same level of quality, whereas phoenixes have varying degrees of balancing, with some producing extraneous sounds while others not doing so; however, these are one to one. The fact that they were full-sized 200mm and did not fit into my case (NZXT 630) was one of the negatives. In order to make room for them, I had to use metal shears and a sawing to remove superfluous metal from the side wall in the front of the case. The fact that the price is twice as much as that of phoenixes is, of course, understandable. Although, in theory, this should make the purchase of phoenixes more affordable. Nevertheless, due to the variable quality of the copies, I have chosen to boo. Since I've only had this product for a little over a month, I'm crossing my fingers that there won't be any hiccups and that the valves will prove to be of a high quality over time.

Pros
  • - fairly quiet, although not at maximum speed, of course. up to 650 revolutions per minute; if it's any higher than that, you can already hear it. - Rubber is used to dampen vibrations at the corners of the structure.
Cons
  • - Full size 200mm frames. - price: cost 2350r each item.
