Noctua NF-S12A PWM chromax.Black.swap, Premium Quiet Fan, 4-Pin (120mm, Black)

These move a ton of air and they are the quietest fans Ive ever used. The rubber dampers are a nice touch, although it would be nice to have 4 of each color if you want a one color scheme.

Im using it with the SilverStone SG13 WB, good airflow for itd build.

As expected from Noctua, these fans are whisper quiet and the performance is excellent. They look and sound great in my NR200p, a noticeable upgrade from the stock case fans. My one complaint is that they only come with enough vibration pads to do 1 side of the fan in each color. Obviously if you are buying the chromax.Black.swap version you care about how it looks, and it feels steep to pay $23/fan and have to cough up an extra $7 for the rubber vibration pads to make the fans look complete.

Great fans

I was debating between these or the NF-12. By design NF-12 is most optimal for static pressure but does quiet well for case fans. However, these NF-S12As pushed way more air as case fans. Do NOT however use these as static pressures.

These fans are great, my computer is silent when idling and stays a few degrees cooler than with the stock case and AIO fans I had.

Noctua makes great fans. I like it that you can get it in black and the colored corner options are nice touch. You get all the colors for all four corners.

I had some other highly recommended quiet case fans installed on my PC that had developed a little bit of a resonance. I swapped those fans with these ones and outside my case the sound dropped a 4DB. The only reason it didnt drop more is that my cpu fan is too loud. Temps remained about the same as with the old fans, I am very heppy with this purchase. Do I wish they were cheaper, yes. But Im convinced these are the base case fans out there.

I bought the NF-S12A PWM to replace a 3 pin Fractal Design Dynamic X2 GP-12 I was using as an exhaust fan in the back of my PC case. System temps dropped 5 degrees Celsius under load and Im sure its the quietest fan in my case right now. Cant speak to long-term durability but the materials used seem pretty standard. So far Im very pleased!

Basically did a new build in a new case ( PC-TU150), which is 100 Air Cooled
