Fan in unusual colors that everyone loves

This fan makes me happy that my HAF 912 case doesn't have a window. It's ugly, but also very quiet. The packaging is very stylish and resembles a high quality headphone box. It comes with a Y-cable and two extensions, one short and one long, for easy cable management. In fact, the fan feels solid with no play that I can find anywhere. The packaging states that the fan blades have a special design that reduces noise and changes the sound of the fan. That's right folks, these fans even sound…

Pros
  • Brilliantly finished
Cons
  • Faulty

They may not be pretty but they are great fans

I bought 3 of these fans to put on my H440 as front air intakes to improve airflow past the hard drive bays as well as full PWM - management they offer and they certainly delivered and then some. Simply put, these fans move a lot of air, and until they're really overclocking (which is rare), they're pretty quiet. I can hear them when I'm really trying, but that's when I'm leaning in the closet and turning off all other sources of noise. I love these fans so much that when I installed them in…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Infinitely slow

Broke after 26 months - Replaced under warranty

Bought 4 Noctua fans for my server in January 2017. 3 are working perfectly now, 27 months later. 1 broke in February. I still give them 5 stars because: 1) they seem to be of good quality and I'm generally very happy with them, low noise, air movement etc. everything is fine 2) there are problems, but if they arise, does the manufacturer behind the product have a 6 year guarantee? Yes, they do. I'm happy. My only, and I mean only constructive, criticism is that the warranty replacement process

Quiet and productive

First of all, the equipment with screws, cable extensions and vibration dampers is convincing. The box is sturdy and contains a detailed description of the product. It may not be the most important thing, but it gives the very first impression of quality. In terms of performance, I was looking for tranquility and I was not disappointed at all. Compared to the Enermax Cluster Advance APS, this is much quieter. As for airflow, I don't have anything to measure it with, but my PC has no cooling…

Pros
  • I've always liked it
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Silent internal components

Bought this fan and other silent fans from Noctua also because of the silence. You pay for what you get, but with this fan it really is. It pushes air out, but not to cool monster machines. However, if you use this fan for its intended purpose, it's great. Keeps my tower cool and quiet. I have an Intel 920, Nvidia GTX 780, two hard drives and a 1000w PSU. I use this fan on my CPU. I have the same but 140mm for the PSU and several same fans without PWM for the case. My room temperature is 78…

Pros
  • Good thing
Cons
  • Communication with seller
