Noctua NF-P12 redux-1700 PWM, High Performance Cooling Fan, 4-Pin, 1700 RPM (120mm, Grey)

Quiet, built to last, low speed, low noise. These stabilized my temps with air cooling on Ultra 7 265k more than expected. They look great too with a simple color scheme. Move air though not as much as a loud fan, but they whisper which is what I want.

Ordered this fan for my PC as an exhaust fan, because I got sick of my temps creeping up when gaming for extended periods of time. This fan is a beast in more ways then one, it moves a lot of air, but with the air movement it does get ramped up on noise. If you are looking for a more quite solution then this would probably not be the fan for you. in saying that you could use this fan at lower speeds and the noise is not as noticeable. I choose to run the fan at max speed when my PC hits a certain temp threshold. i have noticed a huge difference in overall temps and heat lag on my system. It has been solid as I use my PC daily for numerous hours and has not skipped a beat, no bearing noise, or anything. I highly recommend this fan for anyone, just be aware the faster it turns the louder it will get so set your fans speeds to your liking. It is also very solid built!

Even though this is Noctua’s low-cost line, this is a very nice fan. It is very quiet. It has a low running speed capability (I have mine set to start at ~200 RPM). The gap between the blade and the edge of the housing is the smallest I’ve seen - likely improves static pressure capability. The rubberized corners provide nice mechanical isolation from the metal cabinet I mounted the can on. PWM control works nicely with a 2-channel fan controller I bought on Amazon. Given the quietness, and the build quality, I’ll likely use Noctua fans for most of my future needs.

It’s a Noctua fan at a competitive price. You get everything you can ask for. I’ve used these fans since they came out in dozens of computers. 1. Reliable 2. Silent 3. High static pressure (replaced stock thermal right fans that came with my cooler) 4. High Airflow You can get higher performance fans from Noctua and other brands, but not for this price. Arctic fans sacrifice sound levels, and Noctua A-14 cost triple the money. If you want the most performance, go with Noctua Industrial 3000 rpm fans. Their performance far exceeds anything I’ve seen, but your system will sound like a jet engine. Overall, these fans are perfect for 90% of consumers.

I purchased this fan to replace a noisy case fan in my wife’s desktop PC. I chose the Noctua due to thier reputation for manufacturing robust and reliable products combined with over five years experience using heat pipe CPU coolers made by the same manufacturer. In the interest of transparency, I should also state that, after I ordered this fan, I discovered I already had an earlier model of the same fan stored in my spare parts box and subsequently returned this one. I’m confident this fan would perform equally well or better than the fans I already have in use. For a budget-friendly price, this fan comes with features usually found only in premium offerings. The frame is robust with thick, support ribs where the mounting holes are located; built in PWM speed control circuitry, specially engineered fan blades that reduce wind noise, vibration damping silicon strips along the mounting edges of the frame, and a top speed of 1700 RPM.

These actually look almost attractive with the optional rubber corners installed. Even with the added cost of the corners, these fans represent a great price-performance point for that they are. I have four of these mounted to a 30mm thick 480 radiator. They move a huge amount of air through my radiator. At full speed, they are a little loud, but at 50% or 60% speed, they are literally whisper quiet and still move enough air through my radiator to sink 600+ watts while keeping my coolant barely above 30c. These are massive overkill for my application. On the other hand, who doesn't like massive overkill? It irks me a little that I have to buy $15 worth of little rubber bits on top of $60 for the fans. But, this annoyance is mostly offset by the fact the fans are not butt ugly like most of the other Noctua fans. I am good with the cost reduction and the absence of the usually included accessories (rubber screw mounts, low noise adapter, y cable, and extension cable). However, the fans look kind of bad without the corners These corners are more essential than the usual accessories. It just feels a little scammy. Noctua, if you want to take this good product and make it exceptional, my suggestion is include four black corners with each fan. If your customer wants a different color or wants eight of them instead of four, she can still buy the corners. I think the cost reduction is great and I do have a big pile of unneeded accessories from all of my previous Noctua purchases, but I don't have any spare corners. You took it a little too far. Add a few black corners to this product You could even increase the price by a couple of bucks; that would be fine by me. But don't leave me feeling scammed. If you keep doing this, it will ruin my brand loyalty.

Purchased as a replacement for a broken CPU fan, it works a treat. Quality build, quiet, more than adequate airflow, and easily cools an 11600K without a fuss. It's my third copy of this fan, It's a great value for money.

Great fan. i bought these to replace the fans on my aio, and cuz the NF-A12x25 are just too expensive. i own both and i can safely say that these are almost as quiet as the a12s. either way, these are more quiet than my previous aio fans so its a win. if i need more fans, i would buy these instead of the a12s cuz i can get 2 p12 for the price of one a12.
