  • Noctua quality - Nice price.
I bought two of these to round out my PC case and make sure it has airflow coming in and going out. My case is an older NZXT Source 210 and if you are familiar with that case you might know the front panel has somewhat limited air inlets. So much so that when I first installed these fans (set to full speed because I do not yet have a 4 pin extension splitter cable long enough to add PWM functionality from the motherboard) the noise level was not too bad with the front panel off. When I put the front panel back on, however, there was a pretty significant jump in noise due to the design of the front panel on this case. Now if you were to run these fans at about 60 or 70 percent on the same case, the added noise would be pretty negligible. And I mostly blame it on my case because it is definitely not the greatest front panel design in the world. I sort of fixed this a bit by removing the front panel and using some snippers to remove a lot of the unnecessary plastic barriers that were simply impeding airflow. That did help some on airflow but the noise level is still a bit more than I would like. However, I knew that having two 120mm fans spinning at 1200 RPM in my case was not going to be all that quiet. My primary reason for buying these was that the fans I had in there were old and of much lower quality than pretty much any Noctua fan and one of them would occasionally get very noisy and I'd have to remove it and take it apart and re-lubricate the bearing. I know from experience that Noctua fans last and pretty much never get noisier than they were when new and that is exactly what I want. I want nothing but Noctua fans in my PC and now I have that. The price on these is great. The RPMs are low enough to where you can run them at full speed without the noise level being terrible and they're fast enough to move a decent amount of air at that speed. I did buy another Noctua 120mm fan and it's speed is 1700 RPMs at full speed so I really have no choice but to run it in PWM mode. Which is a bit annoying because in PWM mode it's speed never goes above about 900 RPM. Which isn't what I want (I want at least 1100). So, since these budget Noctua fans do not come with any low noise adapters like the more expensive models, it's PWM or buy a fan controller that will give you exactly the speed you want. Overall, I really couldn't be happier though. I will probably eventually buy a four pin splitter but I do already have them hooked up to a fan controller. I just kind of had my hopes on getting that fan controller out of my case because it adds a significant amount of wire clutter. ... show more

  • Dead Silent fans
Just installed 3 of these into a Fractal R6, they are dead silent and produce more airflow than the 140MM's they replaced.

  • Best 120mm Fan I've used so far, in terms of performance
Noctura has been touted for years as one of the best PC fans out there. But I've only recently started using them regularly, as their old color scheme was so ugly in most builds. This two tone grey was lighter than I expected, but still worked well in the aesthetic of the builds I bought them for. I wish they offered black shells with white fan blades. But the performance of this fan is fantastic! I'm using them in Fractal Design Define C cases. I chose high pressure fans to overcome the filters and more restrictive intake areas of this case, and after only some experience with them, I'm very impressed. At a 50% PWM duty cycle, they run about 720RPMs and are nearly dead silent, but you can really feel them moving some air, even through the filters. There is basically no bearing or motor noise at these speeds. Once I go over 50% duty cycle, they become slightly audible, but it's mostly the air movement noise, no buzz/whine, etc. I still have to put these fans through their paces, but I'm really impressed by the quality! I have 2 complaints, however: - The cable, while very nice for a PC fan is very nice, is a little short. 2 to 3 extra inches would have really helped get the fans connected to the headers I wanted to use. - The fans don't come with any rubber grommets, which I was expecting at this price point and quality level. It appears Noctura sells them separately. But overall, this is probably the best 120mm fan I've encountered so far in performance terms. ... show more

  • Super quiet and Perfect for the price!
I am using these fans as intake for my pc and they are dead silent! for the price they cannot be beat. The cables feel solid and there was no noticeable noise from the fan motors. Airflow leaves a little to be desired and the quality is a clear step down from the premium noctua alternative, but for the price who cares! ... show more

  • Great fans found in Redux
This fan is great. Just to start this. I have 4 fans installed in my system (outside of the obvious fan on the graphics card.) All the fans are Noctua Redux fans. Two 140mm 1200 rpm, one 120 mm 1200 rpm (this one,) and one 92 mm 1600 rpm fan. I have found that all do a great job pushing and pulling air through the case. The 120 mm fan is not good for heatsinks or radiators though. The fan uses a wing style fin setup that is great for pulling air, but does not provide good "static" or consistent pressure air through the tiny spaces between the fins. All the other fans (92mm and 140) are good for static airflow. The 92 mm is being used on my heatsink. My CPU (a fx-6300 in a 970 chipset gaming motherboard) is running comfortable at 77-82f, and 84 on hour long stress test. The heatsink is a re-branded Hyper TX3 (said for reference on what to expect when paired.) Now a few notes, some people want more details on color. I liked the color, but they are in no way colors you can normally pair. The fans have a neutral gray approach to them with darker gray fins. Because of their high quality build, they do look great inside a black case with black components. Which, I must add, was not done on purpose. I just chose parts, with much review, that were the highest durability I could find for the price. It looks awesome though. These fans are not as quiet as their other varieties of fans with the anti vibration silicone. This is not an issue, as a good case with sound dampening will kill any remnant of sound they do produce Which is not much I must add. ... show more
