An ideal product for any type of consumer.

It's very, VERY quiet. At first I bought one, because in the old case the fan on the back wall began to make a lot of noise. Then he replaced everything. I won’t say for the money whether it was worth it, there’s nothing special tocompare with, but I’ll say for sure that when replacing all the fans with Noctua, I began to hear the sounds of everything that is in thecomputer, but not these fans: parking of hard disk heads, acceleration video card fans, low-frequency squeak, refrigerator…

Pros
  • Silence + powerful and, most importantly, uniform airflow
Cons
  • Hear the sounds around

I love Noctua. for computer components

Even at this price these fans are a good idea to buy. They work great and none of them have died on me. They are also very quiet even at full speed.

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • New competitors have appeared

Needed to cool the 1500W Ham amp. It got the job done with no noise!

In ham radio you need quiet in a cabin (To hear those faint long distance calls on the radio) But you also need power. These amps generate a lot of heat, so an external fan is required. The problem was that all fans made noise until I found this one. Its size and power output was more than enough to keep the amp section cool, and the fan itself made no noise that I could hear. I am thrilled and will buy these fans for the time being. Realize it's only been a week and I'll update if anything…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

What a great product! Very

What a great product! Very, very well done. Super quiet and efficient. The best fans I've ever bought in my 40 years of PC building.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Factor Set

Ultra quiet - worth the price

Needed a quieter fan as old fans were too loud to clearly hear background music details. Great design and build quality. With added anti-vibration padding around the rim for water cooling radiators and the cable extensions I needed. Works as advertised. Bought two fans. Low noise, hardly noticeable compared to the original dual noisy fans replaced with CPU hydrocooler. So quiet compared to the old fans that I couldn't believe it and had to double check that the system was actually working. I'm…

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Frequency

Would give 4 stars but I think it's my fault I ordered the 3 pin version

This is a silent fan. I bought it to replace my CPU fan and was disappointed to learn that I bought the 3 pin version of it which is always at full power. It's quiet how much air it moves, I'll give it to them. I just want to buy a 4 pin so my phone can control the speed. Unfortunately I've also been away for a while and was busy when it arrived so I missed the return window and this thing ain't cheap!

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Unsure

Super Quiet Fan for HDD Dock

I bought this fan to replace the noisy fan in my Sabrent 5-Bay Dock (link below). The polarity was reversed but Noctua support showed me how to reverse the wires and everything works great now. Really well made, great support and super quiet. Highly recommended. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y4F5SCK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_QpkxEbHQ1MHCW

Pros
  • Easy to Read Control Panel
Cons
  • Minor

Reliable product in every respect

I have fitted a couple of these to their NH-U12S cooler and am very impressed with the overall performance. There is very little noise from the pair even when my processor is under load, leaving excellent temperature readings. Installation was a breeze and I think they are perfect for those looking to replace AIO fans.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Can be damaged
