Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM chromax.Black.swap, Premium Quiet Slim Fan, 4-Pin (120x15mm, Black)

I realize these arent necessarily designed for radiators, but the lack of including screws that can go through the fan casing, and into a radiator is pretty frustrating at the price point. Spend 20+ minutes trying to cut screws I already had, but then they wouldnt thread properly on the rad.

I ordered 2, I received these fans today. Contents of boxes are missing or returned/re-used.

They are noctua fans, what do you expect? The anti vibration adhesion pads work great. At max rpm, the fan is still fairly quiet compared to my lian li SL120 fans at max rpm. I only wish that the pigtail coming off of the fan was a little longer, but if youre fairly good at cable management, it is workable.

Good.

Works great in the base for an NR200P Max to expel that hot air from the GPU.

Recommended!

I started with Noctua on my CPU cooling and was so impressed with the quality that I started using them for case fans. Sure theyre more expensive than most fans, but I also know what Im getting and know that I will not be disappointed. Im willing to pay extra for that.

Seems to be a nice quiet slim case fan, I needed one in my Silverstone GD08 HTPC to clear the video card because of the length of my MSI Radion 5600 XT sticks out over the bottom front mounted fans. My only reason for deducting one star from the value is that the fan didnt quite clear the case on the back side and required some small rubber shims to keep the fan blades from rubbing on the case. Could just be a flaw in the metalwork of my case, but its something you might need to do too.

I use two of these with my Corsair radiator to help provide clearance over the RAM chips which allows me to mount my radiator on top using push exhaust instead of a front mounted pull setup. I run these at 100% non stop and last a couple of years, theyre quiet what more could you ask for?

this would be a great slim fan but for some crazy reason they give you a 1 inch cable to 4 pin connection that will 100% be in the way for a tight build....i have never ever seen a fan that has a 1 inch cable EVER...WHAT WERE THEY THINKING! anyways cant use the fan and i am returning it.....if they would just use a regular cable like every other fan (like every other fan they make them damn selfs) it would be a great product but NOPE
