Product Reviews
- “When it comes to review conclusions I have to say I try my best to present everything fairly and concisely, highlighting positive and negative points with the product, as one would expect. That being said, I am finding it difficult to fault this products performance. It really does tick all the boxes, by providing the airflow of a high-performance fan while producing the same noise as fans that have needed to compromise airflow to obtain their low decibel output.”
- “Quite simply put, the Noctua NF-P12 is THE quietest wind maker I’ve ever seen. This comes at a premium but for an investment of £15 you’ll get a fan rated to work for 17 years which is less than a pound a year to live in computing silence.”
- “This new design seems to really get the job done. Beating out its predecessor by upwards of five degrees is no easy feat, but that is exactly what the U12P has done... Not only is it the quietest fan I have come across but it was able to offer performance of a fan much louder. This is a blessing to my ears. Silent PC users everywhere rejoice! Noctua has a fan for you.”
- “Once again Noctua doesn't disappoint. The NF-P12 produces a decent airflow, a high static pressure and is extremely quiet. This fan is perfect for low-noise CPU, radiator, PSU or case cooling. ”
