NF-P12 redux-1300

First time Noctua customer here. Happy to report that these fans are not only super easy to install but they are very quiet (to me) compared to some other fans I've had, including my Corsair fans. I'm slowly replacing all the case fans in my air cooling setup including the stock fans Phanteks pre-installed in my case and decided to purchase one of these 120mm case fans to replace one of the older Corsair fans that was making a god awful sound (it was on it's last legs). Really appreciate that they provide 3 pin connector versions vs 4 pin for those of us who can't or don't want to use 4pin due to extra cost or just not needing it. One of the biggest positives for me with choosing this fan is the fact that there is NO RGB on them! No shame if you enjoy RGB but for me I just prefer a PC that works and doesn't need all the extra lights on it. No extra cables to manage for RGB, no hubs, nothing like that so you just plug it in and enjoy. Overall I would recommend these fans to friends and I'll definitely be loading up with more of their 120mm and 140mm fans in the coming fans. Thanks for making an RGBless fan that's affordable with *optional* accessories to add on, Noctua!

Once again Noctua shows why it's one of the best fans on the market. Do you want a simple, inexpensive, fan that works? Then get this one. These are definitely a step down from the higher end NF-A12 fans, however if you don't need the absolute most quitest fans then these are solid contenders. They move a ton of air and are barely audible. Yes the NF-A12s are so much better in every way but despite wanting them I don't need to spend $300 on fans, and these do the job very well. I'm using them on a 4u server case, for the HDD enclosure fans. They move plenty of air over each of the 5 3.5" drives. I've also used them for radiator fans, for cooling a AV Receiver, and just about anything else. No complaints, no issues, just good ol reliable Noctua fans, but cheaper.

Highly recommended. I got the '1300' version of this fan as a compromise between 'quietness' and 'air flow'. This fan met both of my requirements: it is whisper quiet it provides 'good' air flow If you are looking for 'strong' air flow, you might want to look at other models like the '1700', but it will produce more sound. I also used the following product to help with lowering any sound: Noctua NA-SAVP1 chromax Anti-Vibration Pads for 120/140mm Noctua Fans

Nice, big, quiet and quality built. So far, I have 2 of these, 1 is 7 yrs old and the other is about 3 yrs old. Both work perfect. Used this to replace a noisy fan pulling air across a 4 disk internal hot-swap drive cage.

I bought two of these fans to replace other fans that were very old. The fans are amazing, they work way better than what I had and I also noticed that it keeps my pc cooler than with the previous fans. There is no vibration. The feel very durable. Also, these fans also pull less power than my last ones. I recommend and would buy again.

2019/04/13 It was time to clean my computer. The liquid cooling area was very dusty. These fans are still quiet and working great. Excellent Product I purchased a new computer system with a liquid cooling system 2018/02 and the fans at the top of the case that draw air out, stopped because they got dusty very quickly and are cheap. It's the only area of the computer that was dusty. I didn't want to purchase the same type of fans as the problem would just surface just as quickly, and no part numbers were to be found anyways. So I measured and began my search.... ..... I wasn't sure if the speed/air flow of the "NF-P12 redux-1300" would be too much so I also ordered the "Noctua NA-SRC10 Accessory 3-pin Low-Noise Adaptors", but they weren't needed. The speed and air flow is perfect and the fans absolutely silent, ninja silent. For those who like just the bottom line: High quality (have you ever spun a fan blade by hand and known it was worthless or not? In relation to others I've dealt with, nothing comes close), ninja silent, and perfect air flow for my liquid cooling. Since the fans will be subjected to the part of my PC that gets dusty quickly I will keep this post updated from time to time as to the long term durability of the fans.

I got this fan to replace the stock fan in my PSU to quiet down my PC. I also got a scythe mugen rev b CPU cooler which is whisper quiet and I recommend. I have to disagree with some of the other reviewers here who say this is a quiet fan. Running at a full 12 volts and 1300 RPM it moves a decent amount of air but has a noticeable hum to it. To me it sounds much louder than 20db unless you're a good distance away from it. I ended up taking it out and comparing it to the stock fan using an adjustable power supply. In terms of noise it wasn't much better at the same airflow. I will say that the sound from the noctua was a bit less mechanical and more pleasant than the stock fan. Holding the noctua at full speed it did seem better balanced than the stock fan. I ended up buying some low noise adapters which did definitely quiet down the noctua. I would have bought the 1000 RPM fan in the first place had I known this. So the bottom line is this is a good fan and if it really lasts 150000 hours its not over priced at all. Its also actually quiet at lower RPM. It seems that if you want a quieter PC then more and bigger fans at lower RPM are the way to go.

Moves a lot of air for being so quiet, very pleased with sound and airflow.

Nutze diese Lüfter 10 oder 12 cm seit Jahren für eine leise und effiziente zusätzliche (Mini)PC-Kühlung (Gehäuse) und 9cm, schneller drehend und mit Drehzahlregelung für Prozessoren. Diesmal für den unbelüfteten Speicherschacht eines ACEMAGIC-S3A mit R7-6800H. Temperaturen dort im Betrieb unter Last bis über 80°, sowohl für den DDR5 Speicher (2x24GB mit T-Sensor)), als auch die beiden 4+2TB NVMe. Im Leerlauf 60° im Schacht. Mit dem über USB-Adapter (5V) angeschlossenem Lüfter jeweils um min. 20° niedriger. Mit 5V springt der Lüfter ohne Probleme an, keine Überlastung des Ports und bei geringer Drehzahl unhörbar. Befestigt mit doppelseitigem Nano-Klebeband an den Lüfter-Ecken und PC-Gehäuse. Für mich - beste Lüfter auf dem Markt.

Certainly quieter than the original for my Nepton 240M though much lower RPM. That makes sense and the slower RPM has made almost no difference to temps on the 4790K @ 4.6 Ghz processor temps. Always Noctua quality at good value price for a pair at $au 50 for the pair.

As it says, it’s quiet and seems relaible..

Es de los mejores ventiladores que se pueden utilizar en un montaje de PC, super silenciosos y duraderos. Super recomendados

Justamente lo que necesitaba, un ventilador que hiciera el trabajo de sacar el aire del gabinete con el minimo de ruido, muy eficiente y practicamente nada de ruido aun a alta velocidad (a la maxima si se escucha algo, pero es esperado)
