Noctua believes so bad on their product that they know even with a shit color that will ruin fucking setups. People will still buy it! Wtf! It also tells us that nothing is perfect and you cannot have everything! I swear if they release a white one they gonna explode with sales!
5:00 I had to stop the video there to realize how noctua just spit on everyone , wooooow these perform waaaaaaaay better way quieter
Anybody know what case that is at 8:04 ?
be quiet are the best because noctua have little jet engine noise. The hum from be quiet is nicer for my ears. I bought 5 different noctua fans and I was very disappointed.
you should definately try out Thermalright c12, whcih offers performance very close to Noctua with a much cheaper price. I currently have both Noctua and Thermalright on my PC, and they are incrediblely similar in terms of noise and performance(but not the price).
THIS IS UNBELIEVABLE!! HOW COME THIS IS EVEN POSSIBLE?!?!
thanks dude.
So I wanna get fans for a build and I’m getting the NZXT H510 case, and do all the 120mm fans work for it, or does in matter please let me know!
Noctua needs to go black to reel me in.
The NF-A12 isn’t even their high static pressure model (although it gives good pressure). The NF-F12 is the high static pressure model that they recommend for heatsinks and radiators, with the A12 being the general purpose case fan.
There are so many Noctua fans on the website, which one is the best? Trying to compare them all is tiring, someone help
You should have a look at noiseblocker eloop fans
i hate the noctua’s aesthetics, they look like wood and they dont fit most PCs aesthetically
Your radiator is upside down
Artic hands down. Best fans for the price. Noctuas are miles ahead of the rest but the MTBF of Noctua fans is same as Artcic and probably the others. For 5 noctuas one can upgrade gpu or get a new SSD or something better. Happy owner of 5 Artic 140mms. Never going back to 120mm. I don’t see any reason to buy Noctua unless they give a lot more waranty.
They sound great BUT that gash colour scheme…. Finally, it looks like black versions are on the way going by their Twatter page
If Noctua made RGB fans, then the entire competition (Except for budget fans) would be destroyed.
I found that hearing the fans was as informative as the decibel level. The Be Quiet and Noctua fans were nearly indistinguishable from the other and much lower/deeper (pleasant?) than the others by a wide margin. I’m guessing that there are frequency factors that are unique to the person listening. Great review as always.
My only issue is where you have the rad with the pipes at the top where all the air is in the radiator.
All aoi have air for expansion so there for having the flow and return at the top of the rad means it wont be performing at its full potential
But this is entirely about static pressure fans. Not general airflow case fans. Bummer.
Sad did not se the NB-ELOOP FAN B12-P From Noiseblocker
For me it’s more important to have no annoying sound then the volume
Ugh why do they have to be brown fans why not white
My fans are blazing right now running chrome.
Good vid. I was looking for something like this. Would like to see how the Lian Li Uni fans match up against these
Does anyone know how does Noctua NF-A14 PWM compare to NF-A12x25?
Do fans on top make noise then the one in front?
Screw all the quietness. I’ll throw a bunch of industrial noctua 3000rpm fans in my computer and turn it into a tornado 😂 can your computer turn into a tornado? 😎
I really wonder why you bother so much with fan noise while you don’t bother at all with fans odors permeability. Most of the fans are made of the same cheap plastic and this plastic as a very strong tendancy to keep track of the odors of the environment where it has beeb used previouly. For instance, if you lived in the basement of a house wich had humidity problème and you move in a 3rd floor dry appartment, your computer will keep on renembering to you where you live previously because all of its fans will keep on smelling bad. 100% metallic fans wouldn’t have this problem but no reviewers seem to give some attention to this problem… Besides, while being not affected by odors, Metalic fans would be a lot less noisy because their blades would be 3 to 4 times thinner than plastic fans. I really wonder when will be the day when computer fans manufacturers will begin to offer 100% metalic computer fans.
There’s a reason why Asus AIOs use Noctua fans!
Can you compare the Thermaltake Toughfan12 with Noctua NF-12? They have really similar designs but TT is black.
I really hate the colour of noctua 😞
The noise profile of the bequiets is by far the best. Sure the noctuas are quieter. But it’s not as bassy and sounds worse. Even if 1db quieter
I like nzxt aer RGB 2
I accidentally ordered two Noctua NF-F12 as case fans for my NZXT H510 build. I was wondering, since the 2 exhaust fans are having to blow through the perforated metal casing which would provide some resistance to airflow, would a static pressure fan at 55 CFM / 2.61 mmH20 be better than an airflow fan at 63 CFM / 1.19 mmH20 (NF-S12A)? The airflow fan only flows 15% more air (in ideal unobstructed conditions) but the static pressure fan produces more than double the pressure which would help when pushing air through the perforations in the case exhausts. Thoughts?
you forget to test the 2 OG kings sanace and gentle typhoon
From the color scheme alone, you can already tell that noctua gonna win 🤣
wonderfull review, this is exactly what I’m looking for
This is being tested on a radiator. That particular Noctua is not ideal as pure case fan. This is NOT test of case fans, therefore.
Let’s also be frank, the vast majority of you are not going to be overclocking your system like this, the cost/benefit of overclocking with the requisite cooling is really not worth the effort for the vast vast majority of users, and most of you cannot even afford these components. I can, I’m building something more powerful and I’m not bothering to overclock it because there is no advantage. Why overclock a processor when I can get one with a lot more threads that I don’t have to use expensive and power-hungry means to cool? Spend the money where there is genuine output. Overclocking gets you so little additional performance, its the tweakers’ _canard._
If you’re going to spend money, get a better CPU, get a better motherboard, get more ram. Don’t waste money on the most expensive water cooling solution so you can overclock a CPU and get a tiny performance bump. I’ve been down this path, it’s a waste of time. Noctua make great fans, this is not a dig at Noctua, they make great products, but I’m gonna run my system quiet and just use a bunch of Arctic fans and use an Artic Freezer II. These are cost-effective solutions that perform very well.
I think your Scythe fans are not the High Speed model, which is very powerful (2.81 mmH2O).
Akasa Cloudy fans have been crazy good for me (damn quiet) – no idea why no one talks about them…
try these as case fans they are personal for me the best Noiseblocker NB-eLoop Fan B12-PS 120mm PWM
I knew it was Noctua, and I hadn’t even watch the video yet.
Wish the ps4 had noctua’s
This video should be called who makes the quietest fans, since you say it is a foregone conclusion that cooling is the same at same rpm.
That’s a beautiful video
DELTA WITH LAMPTRON SWITCHS/NOBS ARE FOR THE REAL MVP PC MASTER RACE BOYS
(˵ ͡⚆ ͜ʖ ͡⚆˵)
$80 per fan come on
The Lian Li Unifans are the best, because they look the best and daisy chain like no other, that makes them the best IMO. Looks and easy of use are better than 1-2 degrees cooler any day of the week.
I am definitely the biggest fan of PC.
😂😂😂😂
Corsair need to work on the blade design to make less noise
