Noctua NF-S12B redux 1200 PWM 120mm Fan:
The Noctua NF-S12B redux 1200 PWM 120mm Fan is specifically engineered for efficient case ventilation, delivering a strong balance of high airflow and low noise. As a “redux” edition, it reissues Noctua’s award-winning NF-S12B design in an accessible package, featuring a distinct industrial grey color scheme. This fan is an excellent choice for users seeking reliable and quiet cooling for their PC chassis.
Key Features for Quiet & Efficient Cooling:
Proven Airflow-Optimized Design: The NF-S12B’s classic blade geometry excels in low-impedance applications, making it ideal for case intake or exhaust where high airflow and low noise are crucial. Its unique Bevelled Blade Tips reduce turbulent airflow and contribute to quieter operation.
Automatic Speed Control with PWM: This fan supports Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), allowing your motherboard to automatically adjust fan speed based on system temperature. Additionally, Noctua’s custom NE-FD1 PWM IC integrates Smooth Commutation Drive (SCD) technology, further suppressing switching noises for ultra-quiet operation, particularly at lower speeds. This even enables semi-passive cooling, allowing the fan to stop completely when temperatures permit.
Exceptional Longevity with SSO2 Bearing: Equipped with Noctua’s renowned SSO2 (Self-Stabilizing Oil-Pressure) bearing, the NF-S12B redux 1200 PWM offers superior long-term stability and reliability. Consequently, it boasts an impressive MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) rating of over 150,000 hours, ensuring years of worry-free performance.
Streamlined Redux Edition: The “redux” series delivers Noctua’s premium quality at a more attractive price point by focusing on core performance. While maintaining the high engineering standards, it simplifies packaging and adopts a neutral grey aesthetic that blends seamlessly into most PC builds.
