## Overview

The Noctua NF-A12x15 PWM is a premium 120x120x15mm case fan featuring a 4-pin PWM connector for dynamic speed control up to 1850 RPM. Engineered with Advanced Acoustic Optimization and Flow Acceleration Channels, it delivers a high airflow of 94.2 m³/h while maintaining an ultra-quiet noise level of 23.9 dB. Its slim 15mm profile fits compact builds without sacrificing performance. With a 6-year warranty, it’s a durable, silent cooling solution favored by professionals seeking efficient thermal management.

## Description

From the manufacturer Featuring advanced aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels and Noctua’s AAO frame, the NF-A12x15 is a highly optimised, premium quality quiet fan in size 120x15mm. Its 15mm slim design makes the NF-A12x15 ideal for space-restricted applications such as low-profile CPU coolers or HTPC cases. The PWM version sports Noctua’s custom-designed NE-FD1 IC for fully automatic speed control via 4-pin fan headers and comes with a Low-Noise Adaptor to reduce the maximum speed during PWM control from 1850 to 1400rpm. Its superb running smoothness, reference-class SSO2 bearing and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for the highest demands. Metal-reinforced motor hub With many larger-diameter slim fan designs, the shorter axis and bearing lead to a reduced running stability and lifespan. The NF-A12x15 uses a metal-reinforced motor hub, a measure typically found in high-speed industrial fans, in order to ensure Noctua’s signature stability and longevity. Flow Acceleration Channels The NF-A12x15 impeller features suction side Flow Acceleration Channels. By speeding up the airflow at the crucial outer blade regions, this measure reduces suction side flow separation and thus leads to better efficiency and lower vortex noise. SSO2 bearing The NF-A12x15 features 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. 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.

Review: Silent and durable cooling fan - One if not the best engineered cooling fan one can buy today. Bought this to augment the stock NOCTUA heatsink installed in my computer. Works silently and I see a reduction of almost 2 degrees cpu temperature. Highly recommended.
Review: Amazing Fans!!! - Installed two of these on my graphics card. It astonishingly reduced temps of my PC by atleast 20-30 degrees. Huge improvement. Well worth the cost. Thinking of changing all the fans to Noctua!!
