Review: Large and quiet! - I have wanted to try Noctua fans for a while now but i love having my rgb so i use corsair however they can be noisy when they ramp up so when i done my watercooling loop i decided instead of two rgb fans on top i would add two of these and i'm really happy i did! The only gripe i have is the length of the cables made it a bit of a chore to run it down the back of my case then back in to fit the pwm headers on my motherboard but they just made it...barely. General performance has been great they make barely any noise even when they ramp up i just set a fan curve in the bios and let them do their thing and the amount of hot air they pull out of my system is great. I would highly recommend these and i would switch fully to Noctua if they released rgb fans but i know that's not something they're likely to do. I wouldn't say these are expensive compared to some others i had considered and for the performance and silence i would say they're more than worth it plus the all black looks great on a radiator or black case.
Review: Super quiet at low RPM, excellent high quality fan. - Bought a Fractal Design Torrent Case but the 3 x 140mm fans included were noisy and ticked at low RPM. Replaced them with 3 x Noctua NF-A14 PWM chromax.black.swap and now I can run the case at low fan RPM without any ticking noise. The cables included with the fans whilst fairly short are long enough to reach the Torrent fan controller. I also installed the included rubber anti-vibration pads on the fan corners which may also help to reduce noise. Overall really happy, I've been buying Noctua kit for many years now and never had a problem so far. It's expensive but worth it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The fan works with 1500 rpm with 24 db/a, and another fan that work on 1200 rpm has a 19 db/a. if i lower the rpm to 1200 will i get 19 db/a?**
A: yes, 19,2 dB(A)

**Q: did the fans come with screws and or rubber fittings?**
A: The fans come with screws. Rubber fittings are available from noctua as a separate purchase. The box though, includes rubber pads that sit between the case and the fan housing helping with absorbing vibrations.

**Q: Can any of these fans be attached to a computer and which one works bette**
A: If you make sure to check what size of fans your case supports, and you check what connectors you e.g. motherboard supports or has the most of (3 pin DC, or 4 pin PDW) then they will work. Any modern midtower+ will support both 120mm and 140mm probably. And most motherboards these days have a mix of 3 and 4 pin. In terms of which rpm version to get, most PC's cases, heatsinks or radiators will do fine with this fan running at 1000rpm and you will barely hear it. Higher rpm will perform better but higher noise. They work well in all instances as they have a great balance of airflow and static pressure. Meaning they will work as case fans or radiators or on an air-cooling heatsink.

**Q: Does anyone know where to get extra noctua case badges? i sold my previous pc but kept my nh-u12s but no longer have the badge to place on my pc case.**
A: have you tried noctua`s site ? i think you only have the badge when you purchace thier coolers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Noctua fans can be essentially silent
*by M***S on 8 January 2025*

I have these or their brethren installed on my cooler, and case exhaust and input fans. I use the PWM connectors on the main board and ASUS tool from the motherboard to set the speeds. Essentially, with the side off, I ran the system to get to the point where I could not here the PC. The Hard drive became the noisy component (now replaced). You need to adjust the settings for the most quiet, but totally worth it. I went the white corners to complement the whit PC case - and overall delighted with the result :-) Can recommend the Noctua PWM fans!
