As you can tell from the Tables above the NF-F12 PWM does a little better job with cooling the CPU. Now both the NF-F12 PWM and the NF-P12 PWM does cool the CPU well but it seams the Focused flow on the NF-F12 PWM makes a difference. [...] If we look at the sound performance of the NF-F12 PWM and NF-P12 PWM I am very impressed, They both are very quiet fans and is nearly silent up to around 900RPM so during normal CPU activity and even when running a CPU heavy production in Studio ONE Professional V2 I could not hear the fans at all. [...] Noctua has done it again, both the NF-F12 PWM and the NF-P12 PWM are great fans that will help keep your system temps down. the NF-F12 PWM seems to be a bitt better on a CPU cooler that the NF-P12 but no matter what fan you get you will se excellent results.

"If you plan to get a new fan for your CPU I recommend the NF-F12 PWM since it has a higher RPM and a bit better cooling performance when used on a CPU cooler. All in all these two fans are amazing and I recommend them both for anyone no matter what you do with your PC, for ME who wants my Studio PC to be quiet the NF-F12 PWM is a winner."
