  • The NF-F12’s stator guide vanes are set out in Varying Angular Distance and feature Vortex-Control Notches.
  • Custom designed for the new Focused Flow frame and to work in tandem with the eleven stator guide vanes, the NF-F12’s seven blade Heptaperf impeller has been carefully optimised to achieve a perfect balance between power and quietness.
  • Integrated Anti-Vibration Pads. Integrated Anti-Vibration Pads made from extra-soft silicone minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with all standard mounting systems and fan clips used on heatsinks.
  • The NF-F12 is the first fan to feature the further optimised second generation of Noctua’s renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability.
  • Low-Noise Adaptor. The NF-F12 is supplied with a Low-Noise Adaptor (L.N.A.) that reduces the maximum fan speed from 1500 to 1200rpm. The L.N.A can be used either to run the fan at a fixed speed of 1200rpm or to cap the maximum speed when using automatic PWM control.

5.0 out of 5 starsUnmatched in its class, but very specialized. UPDATED
By M. Flowerpot on February 23, 2012
Verified Purchase
The NF-F12 is maybe slightly louder than the NF-P12 at similar rpm, which is to say anything other than the airflow is inaudible under 1k. I haven't experienced the whining referred to in a previous review, but I don't doubt it. I've seen that issue referred to by others, but all I can say is that my NF-F12 does not produce any such noise, other than possibly a low harmonic sound at 1300+ rpm when my head is literally inside my case. However, that could be my head rubbing up against it. Maybe I got lucky. Maybe I'm going deaf. Amazon has a pretty good return policy, so it's your call, buddy. Running solo on either my Venomous-X or H80, the F12 idles at about 500rpm and hits 950rpm during load testing. After letting it run free with a wide pwm profile, I saw diminishing returns higher than 1k rpm. I think few heat sinks/rads can take advantage of the airflow the F12 produces at high speeds.

Which brings me to this: The F12 is for pushing air through a restrictive medium with minimal noise. Not that it's bad as a case fan, but it's just not necessary considering the cost. An exception would be for front intake placement on "silent" cases that have restrictive intakes; here I can see the F12 being a benefit, especially since it has such tightly directed, long throw of air.

For rads/heatsinks, note I said "pushing." Look at the design: it's that way for a reason. If you have this as a puller, don't be surprised when it doesn't outperform other high end fans. When pushing, it will, at least it outperforms my other fans. That includes beating out the GT-AP15; in both cooling and acoustics the F12 surpassed my GT hands-down. This is not the results of a pro-test, so ymmv, of course.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsNF-F12 fans are awesome... DON'T ORDER FROM Platinum Micro
By GHOSTScoachZ on March 15, 2013

I have a few radiators on my computer and these fans are amazing for the amount of static pressure they create. However, just like other reviewers warned, if you order from Platinum Micro, Inc., they will send you the wrong fans.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent as expected.
By Zachary Kaluza on November 29, 2015

They perform at least as well as my H100i's stock fans, and are significantly quieter.

Expensive, but quality is great, and they're effective.

Noctua hasn't let me down yet. You could say I'm... a fan.

5.0 out of 5 starsDiffering application, great results
By 68redcedar on November 23, 2012

I am using this fan on a small 12 volt refrigerator condenser for a camper Van. The 120mm fan it came with was rated at 73 cfm, 0.10amps and was installed to pull air through the condenser. It was louder than the compressor motor.

A major reason for my interest in this fan was the very low 0.05amp draw. When I first got it I put it in the same position as the original fan, and the thing was annoyingly loud when pulling air.

I then moved it to the other side of the condenser so it was pushing Air and it made no more noise than in open air, and was much much quieter than the original fan.

I later built a shroud so that it can only draw in cool air from below and has no chance to recycle heated air. The fridge performance has increased noticeably in terms of the amount of battery consumption for interior temperature held.

I was worried that the 54 cfm rating would negatively impact fridge performance as opposed to the 73 cfm original fan. I believe the higher static pressure rating of the Noctua fan pushing is more effective than the other faster fan pulling.

5.0 out of 5 starsEasily match stock H100 fans, but are absolutely silent
By Joseph Blackwell on January 28, 2013
Verified Purchase
I bought two of these to replace my stock Corsair H100 fans (because they were too loud) based on this review...
[...]
...not really expecting to get the results they saw but to at least cut down on the sound a little in my case. Upon receiving them and putting them in, the sound level went from "Are you running a server in here?" to "Is the computer on?" I have a 200mm low rpm airflow fan in my case and it makes more noise than both of these fans running at full speed.

But of course I needed to check my temps. So I ran a torture test on my CPU (i7 3930k) and the temps I saw astonished me. The system idles at a lower temperature than with the stock fans, and the average load temperature maximums were within a degree of the test I had run with the stock fans. And the Noctura fans accomplished that while spinning at only 1500 rpm compared to the stock fans' 2500 rpm.

These fans are well worth the money if you need a powerful radiator fan that's dead quiet. These fans really are as good as you can get.

PROS:
-Inaudible
-Powerful
-6-year manufacturer warranty

CONS:
-None that I've found so far

5.0 out of 5 starsQuiet as a graveyard
By Eric Sandler on July 18, 2016
Verified Purchase
Used this as a replacement fan for the stock fan that came with my Cooler Master Evo Hyper 212. It took some doing to get the rails off the stock fan, and I had to skip the rubber pegs that came with the Noctua and just use screws, but afterward?

Dead. Silent.

I had to actually look at the fan to ensure it was on and spinning. I could barely hear it if I pressed my ear against the case. CPU temps? Everything's cool as a cucumber. Yeah, they don't match the black aesthetic of my case, but if you want a silent, quality fan, this is the one you want.

Keep in mind, though, that this is best as a radiator/heatsink fan rather than a standard case fan. If you want something blowing air out the back of your case, take a gander at the NF-S12A (also a fantastic product).
