NF-P12 redux-1300 PWM, Quiet Fan, 4-Pin, 1300 RPM (120mm, Grey)

These Noctua computer case fans are an absolute game-changer! I bought these fans to improve cooling on my Hackintosh that was struggling with heat, and the difference is night and day. Before, I'd often experience throttling and general sluggishness during demanding tasks, but now my system runs incredibly cool and stable. The airflow these fans generate is simply phenomenal, and what's even better is how incredibly quiet they are. Even under load, they're barely audible, which is a huge plus for a system that I use for both work and entertainment. Installation was straightforward, and the build quality is exactly what you'd expect from Noctua – top-notch. If you're dealing with a hot-running Hackintosh or any PC, for that matter, and you want a premium cooling solution that delivers on its promises, look no further than Noctua. These fans are worth every penny!

Replaced my stock Cooler Master fan with this fan and it is a night and day difference. Stock fan had terrible whine at startup and didn't push nearly as much air - this one is completely silent and I can feel the air flowing past the jumble of cables in my tiny ITX build.

This reviewer recently finished his first computer build. The computer was built for home use and some digital image manipulation. It is not used for gaming. It neither needs, nor has, liquid CPU cooling. The case in which the computer was assembled came with two three-wire, fans installed. These fans were selected to upgrade to a 4-wire, PWM, fan. Installation was easier than easy and the direction of the airflow was clearly marked on the frame of the fan. The marking of the direction of flow was a nice assist for a first-time computer builder. In use the fans are completely silent and are readily controlled in BIOS. The computer never runs hot, the fans never run at max RPM, so the fans are apparently more than adequate for this build. They are not lighted, but the case has no transparent or translucent surfaces. Lighted fans spark no interest at any rate! In conclusion, these fans were a nice upgrade...noticeably more robust than the originals...for this build. The fans were a totally satisfactory purchase.

These are the best PC Case Fans I've had, they are nearly silent, look great in a black case, and keep everything cool. They feel built to last, and are extremely cost effective too! I would easily recommend these to anyone needing cheap, yet powerful fans for their PC.

Noctua is known for good fans that are two ugly colors. I needed a couple of fans, so I decided to try two NF-P12 Redux fans made for air pressure. This one is the 1300 RPM fan, the other is the noctua NF-P12...

Quiet and quality fan. Provides adequate airflow without noise. It should come with rubber corners for the price

Noctua fans are far and beyond the most amazingly quiet and reliable fans on the market; there is no competition. My only gripe I ever had with them was the ABSOLUTELY HIDEOS brown/tan fan colors. Well they finally corrected that sin and now have an undeniably perfect product. My double-wide EATX home build already has 4x 120mm and 3x 200mm Noctua fans which I love. When the bearings on my CoolerMaster AIO started to fail, the solution was a no-brainer, replace them with Noctua fans. When I saw that they now had a 120mm static air pressure fan that wasn't fugly, I was thrilled. They fit onto my AIO's radiator better than the original 120mm cooler master fans that came with it. My system is now almost completely silent except for some radiator pump noise and a when my system maxes out and the fan curves pick up.

Intended to go push/pull configuration with another brand of RBG static pressure fans, but the high-performance radiator I am using is too thick to fit fans on the bottom (push). Once I understood that there would only be three fans on top in pull configuration, it became imperative to get the very best fans for the job. Clearly that meant selecting Noctua fans, never mind the RGB. I went with the 1300 RPM fans since all three are oriented essentially at my ears. The back radiator actually has their 1700 RPM version of the same fan since that fan exhausts to the rear of the case. I really like the fan's gray color, as it is a great match for the black Corsair case. See for yourself. And I did use Noctua's accessory anti-vibration pads to minimize vibration and noise to the greatest extent possible. Those are highly recommended too. Noctua has a great reputation for a reason: it's well earned.
