Review: The king of quiet PC fans - no other device can match its low noise levels and decent airflow levels. Expensive though. - This is the king of quiet PC fans. I checked specs on a number of them, and none match this for both noise levels and airflow. It runs at a maximum of 1200 RPM, or can be limited to no more than 800 RPM using the provided low-noise adapter. Also provided is an extension cable, screws, and rubber mounting devices that can take the place of screws, providing a mounting system guaranteed not to have any vibration noise. All provided in a stylish book-like package, with a nicely laid out instruction manual. Performance is excellent. It's extremely quiet while still moving a good amount of air. It looks good too, if you're into that sort of thing. Makes a change from plain boring black or grey devices. Installation is easy enough using the screws provided. The rubber mounting devices are a bit trickier, especially if you're trying to install the fan in a cramped PC case and/or where you can't get full access. You need to pull them through the screw holes, and they are a tight fit, requiring them to be wiggled around to get them fully through the holes. This is OK if you can get full access to the holes, but can be very hard if you're trying to install it in a tight place. If you're trying to lower the noise of your PC fans, or any device that uses (or can use) a 12cm / 120mm fan, then I know of no fan better than this one. The only downside is the price. It's definitely priced for the enthusiast market, and is packaged as such: everything about it shouts quality, high-end product. That's fine, but I likely would have bought a couple more if I didn't have to keep paying for stuff I don't need. It's a shame that they don't offer a 'bare' version that doesn't include the accessory pack. While it's well put together, and will be appreciated in many installations, there are likely many users who, like me, only need the fan, and won't use the provided screws, rubber mounts, extension cable or low noise adapter (all of which can be bought separately if the buyer later changes their mind about needing them.) Noctua really should consider also making the fan available on its own so that users who don't need all the other stuff don't have to pay for accessories and packaging they really don't need. I suppose they prefer to be seen as a luxury brand, but that's definitely costing them a few extra sales, at least from me.
Review: Great all rounder case fans - Great all rounder case fan. Decent airflow. The rubber padding definitely helps reduce noise, but I recommend using the metal screws to keep everything secure.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which 120mm Noctua fan is best for the rear vent of my case? (Air flow is normal front to rear).**
A: Hi mate! I've got the noctua industrial PPC ones which is moving a lot of air when on full speed, but it is noisy indeed, but if you have a motherboard that has the 4pin fan connectors and you can set the speed then this fans are truly amazing! I've got all my fans from noctua and when I'm playing games I used them on 75% of their speed and you can bearly hear them. Otherwise you can get the supersilent ones but they don't move as much air as the industrial ones! Have fun!

**Q: Can i use this on the same pwm circuit (using the extension and y cables) as the nf-a9 92mm fan (different rpm)?**
A: Y cables typical only have the 4th pin on one connection, and thus the other doesn't report it's rpm to the motherboard or controller. The second fan just receives the same voltage as the first. It'll work at loosely the same percentage as the first fan, but that rpm will obviously differ. Put the more powerful fan on the fully enabled connector and the second fan will always be quieter. Other way round and it'll always be the faster one.

**Q: Does it come with a filter?**
A: No it does not, IV never come across a fan that does.....

**Q: can you change the anti vibration mounts for the multi coloured ones?**
A: Yes you can change them

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great all rounder case fans
*by S***N on 10 October 2025*

Great all rounder case fan. Decent airflow. The rubber padding definitely helps reduce noise, but I recommend using the metal screws to keep everything secure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good fans so far - but fiddly to install with rubber mounting option
*by M***C on 11 December 2018*

Only had the fans a short while [1 week] but they have sunk my temperatures by 10-20degrees on idle whilst remaining at low noise. The only reason this is given 4 stars is because despite all the extras included in the box, the mounting option is soft plastic that bends so much, I can't fit it easily through the hole on all 4 sides due to case access restrictions for the top most case fan. So I gave up and used a screw...or at least tried to, but then realised these weren't able to fit the case I have [a now dated Antec P180]. A great case however - after 12 years. The good news is, 4 stars only for my experience. You might have a 5* experience. Advice to anyone buying these, expect to use screws if fitting this somewhere fiddly, unless you have ninja-like finger abilities :D
