Noctua NF-A12x15 FLX cooling fan - 120mm [NF-A12x15 FLX]

Noctua is one of the well-known names in the silent cooling sector, with the Austrian manufacturer's CPU coolers in particular enjoying an excellent reputation. They combine excellent processing quality with high cooling performance and minimal noise development. The self-developed fans from Noctua, which are also available separately to serve as case or CPU fans, are largely responsible for this.

The NF-A12x15 FLX is a quiet and extremely flat 120 mm premium fan with a square AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimization) frame. Its square shape and 105mm mounting holes make it an excellent choice for use on CPU coolers, water cooling radiators or as a case fan. Due to the flat height of only 15 mm, it is also particularly suitable for low-profile CPU coolers or HTPC cases.

The FLX version offers three speed settings (1,850 / 1,400 / 950 rpm) via the supplied low-noise adapter and thus ensures full flexibility between maximum delivery capacity and almost noiseless operation. Its superb smoothness, the SSO2 reference class bearing and Noctua's proven premium quality make the NF-A12x15 FLX a top solution for the highest demands, whether on water cooling radiators, heat sinks or for case ventilation.

The impeller of the NF-A12x15 is equipped with so-called Flow Acceleration Channels on the suction side. By accelerating airflow in the critical outer regions of the fan blades, suction-side vortex shedding is reduced, resulting in higher efficiency and lower turbulence-related noise emissions.

Noctua's AAO (Advandced Acoustic Optimization) frames have integrated vibration buffers as well as a stepped inlet area (Stepped Inlet Design) and an inner microstructure (Inner Surface Microstructures), which enable even better performance/noise efficiency.

The anti-vibration pads made of extra-soft silicone reduce the transmission of the smallest vibrations and are also compatible with all standard screws and commercially available mounting systems or fan clips used with CPU coolers.

The NF-A12x15 is equipped with the further optimized second generation of Noctua's proven SSO bearing system. With SSO2, the rear magnet sits closer to the fan axis for even better stabilization, resulting in further improved precision and durability.

Noctua's fans are known for their impeccable quality and outstanding durability. Like all Noctua fans, the NF-A12x15 has an MTBF specification of over 150,000 hours and comes with a full 6-year manufacturer's guarantee.
