Noctua NF S12A PWM chromax black swap 120mm Fan:
The Noctua NF S12A PWM chromax black swap 120mm Fan combines quiet operation with versatile customization options. It features Noctua’s renowned SSO2 bearing and S-Series blade geometry with Anti-Stall Knobs, ensuring exceptional airflow and static pressure. With its all-black design and swappable anti-vibration pads in multiple colors, this fan allows for extensive aesthetic personalization. Furthermore, its advanced acoustic optimization and PWM control make it an ideal choice for quiet PC builds and efficient cooling.
Quiet Operation & Optimized Airflow:
The Noctua NF-S12A PWM chromax.black.swap fan is engineered for quiet operation. It achieves a maximum acoustical noise level of just 17.8 dB(A). This makes it an excellent choice for users who prioritize a silent computing environment. Its SSO2 bearing ensures long-term stability and quiet performance.
Despite its low noise, the fan delivers optimized airflow. It produces 107.5 m³/h of airflow and a static pressure of 1.19 mm H₂O. The S-Series blade geometry with Anti-Stall Knobs further enhances its performance. This design allows for efficient air movement, even in challenging environments like restrictive cases or dense radiators. The fan’s advanced acoustic optimization (AAO) frame technology contributes to its superior quietness.
Versatile Customization & All-Black Aesthetic:
The “chromax.black.swap” designation highlights this fan’s versatile customization options. It comes with multiple sets of NA-AVP1 anti-vibration pads in various colors: black, blue, green, red, white, and yellow. These swappable pads allow you to personalize the fan’s aesthetic. You can match it perfectly with your PC build’s color scheme.
The fan itself features an elegant all-black design. This sleek finish seamlessly integrates into any system, providing a clean and sophisticated look. The combination of the all-black frame and customizable anti-vibration pads offers both functional benefits and extensive aesthetic flexibility.
PWM Control & Broad Compatibility:
The Noctua NF-S12A PWM chromax.black.swap fan features a 4-pin PWM connector. This allows for precise speed control via your motherboard. It operates within a rotational speed range of 300 RPM (at 20% PWM) to 1200 RPM. This wide range enables optimal balance between cooling performance and noise levels.
With a standard size of 120x120x25 mm and 105×105 mm mounting hole spacing, the fan ensures broad compatibility with various PC cases and CPU coolers. Its long MTTF (> 150,000 hours) indicates exceptional reliability and longevity. The fan also includes a 30 cm NA-EC1 chromax.black extension cable and four fan screws, simplifying installation and cable management.
