💨 Noctua NF-F12 iPPC 3000 PWM, High-Performance Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 3000 RPM (120mm, Black) Review

Noctua is synonymous with quality for me. But I would not recommend THIS product from Noctua for this price. NF-P12 is not worse IMHO. And if you really need a PWM, then it's better to take it cheaper from another manufacturer. Some pros: Anti-vibration inserts. PWM. Excellent kit! (as always with Noctua). Has cons: In terms of noise level, it turned out to be even worse than the Noctua NF-P12, with the same efficiency (54 CFM). Expensive. In fact, you overpay 250r. just for the shim.

purchased to replace the stock fan on the Gammaxx 300 cooler, which made a buzzing sound; the aim is to run as quietly as possible when the cooler is not in use. When I set the speed to 600, the fan is completely silent and cannot be heard at all. even if you bring your ear to a distance of 10 cm, you will only hear how the air moves. Despite the high cost, I am very pleased with the acquisition overall, and I have only been using it for a few days so far. Below are some advantages: If you set…

I put my faith in reviews, technologies, and promises, but in the end, none of it lived up to the expectations I had for its quiet operation and high level of productivity. 1. The so-called swirl "technology" is not going to work on radiators! 2. Very noisy, unnecessarily noisy! The noise is so repugnant that it penetrates one's consciousness like a sharp knife. The benefits of it include: Everything should be of high quality. Maximum force while maintaining a high air pressure. Below are some…

Pros below: Works almost silently. I have 4 of them. So even at the peak of the load, you need to listen to the sound coming from them With its cons: The color of the device is ambiguous. Can't say it's annoying. But at the same time, it stands out from the main color palette of other devices. Although in reality - this is such garbage .

Has some pros: Very quiet (at 40-50% of work it is not audible), good delivery set (anti-vibration inserts, extension cords, fasteners), quality of the product itself, warranty (6 years), braided wires Cons below: For some, the factor may be its price (although for me the price is justified)

In general, I am quite happy with the purchase that I made. I am going to gradually switch out all of the fans in the PC for Noctua models. Some pros: Excellent, perfectly silent fan. The extension cord, the 3-4 pin converter, the step-down resistor, and the rubber nails are all excellent pieces of equipment. All that remains to be done. What is not usable can be repurposed for use in fans manufactured by other companies. Got cons: Price. Rubber nails are notoriously difficult to install. For…

This cooler is yours if the motherboard supports 4-pin PWM. With a heated stone and a quad-core Intel Core i7-4770K processor, the idle speed is 450 revolutions per minute (30 degrees), while with 85% load, the speed is 850 revolutions per minute (60 degrees). I used Scythe Big Shuriken 2 Rev. B (SCBSK-2100) in its place. When the CPU load reached 85%, it produced 1500 revolutions (68 degrees) and began to buzz. In idle time, it produced 700 revolutions (33 degrees). You now need to verify…

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…

Now that it is installed on a 60mm coolant radiator, it blows perfectly; stood on a 38mm radiator, set low speeds; static flow pressure enables you to minimize speed for thin radiators; focus flow technology will effectively remove heat in pull mode on coolant radiators; for Push, a dead zone is possibly created on radiator; however, it will clear when dust accumulates on the radiator.

To increase air injection on the cooler and to cool the power circuits on the motherboard (it blows from the top down, the motherboard is horizontally oriented in this case), I added a case (Fractal Design Core 500) in mini iTX. In spite of this challenge, the cooler performed admirably, and the VRM temperature reduced by 20 degrees. Meanwhile, the entire step-down converter I used made it quite quiet. In general, I found the cooler to be quite useful for its intended purpose.

I bought this miracle for 1200, for the same money I bought another 3 zm-f4. I don’t know about reliability, after all, they only have a plain bearing, but they blow much better with the same noise. Pros: - a rich delivery set, including a tee for connecting another pwm fan. - 6 year warranty - beautiful packaging, printing - quiet operation at low speeds Cons: despite the assurances that this fan has a focused airflow and gigantic air pressure (namely, pressure is important for cooling the…

I wish I didn’t buy the Enermax trio 12. but now you can’t find it during the day with fire! (((The percentage of defects in Nouktua is high. So take it in trusted stores, where you can return anything. I’m not lucky, but I have already returned 7 coolers for month. different companies, and 1 bp. but even that with anti-vibration pads could not be put on the radiator, I was afraid to break the motherboard, and to remove the fan, take everything out of the computer, it's too much! so I put it…

It took me a long time to choose fans for the case. There were three applicants after studying topics on the Internet: 1) kama flow by Scythe; 2) gentle typhoon by Scythe 3) NF-F12 PWM from Noctua. According to the descriptions, I liked the gentle typhoon with a regular ball bearing; which works in any position of the impeller axis in space, unlike the bushing used in the first and third versions. And the lower price than that of the NF-F12 PWM pushed him to buy it. The only thing that…

Someone wrote here that the price is too high, vibration pads made of silicone in the corners are not needed, it makes noise at maximum speed, and another heresy. About noise: at 1500 rpm and such a flow of air, this is not noise. In addition, it is necessary to regulate the speed, few people have these 1500 rpm. needed. I set it to 1100 and it is not audible (a slight pleasant rustle), with a full load of 8 gigs of OP and 4 cores (for testing), the maximum system temperature is 53 gr…

I just had to buy it. A month earlier, I bought an expensive Corsair power supply, and it turned out to be a noisy cooler. There are no drawdowns at all (according to the Fluke multimeter), but the fan makes noise like a helicopter. According to reviews, they wrote like he would get used in a week or two and stop making noise. Don't get used, don't stop. It all turned out to be a lie. I put this cooler instead of the regular one, now I hear only hdd. But the price, of course, is prohibitive…

Devil Canyon "K" is not suitable for CPU cooling. If you take advantage of the overclocking of many motherboards by 97 z, then the 4700 level requires more powerful cooling. 1500, even +10% is not enough. Prots can go to trotl. And leaves. Before that, Zalman and KMaster were standing, at 2022 rpm, they coped, but the noise was really high. In general, I see no reason to take such a valve at the offered prices for either a cooler or a case. Analogues, which are half or three times cheaper, do…

Okay, I'll open this this morning installed on my GTX 980ti heatsink as an exhaust fan. There is a fan on each side of the radiator. The original supplied fan was a pressure fan. Anyway, I used to use a Noctua 1200rpm fan as an exhaust fan. It probably wasn't strong enough to pull, so it caused turbulence and the GPU got hotter than usual. This slower, low-power Noctua fan is completely silent, but it was decided it would be better to have more features on the heatsink fans that keep expensive…
