NF-S12-1200
At basic speeds (no resistors), both fans are very quiet. At about a foot away, they can still be heard but not by much. At 3-4 feet they're almost inaudible. With the LNA, the 120mm fan is barely audible at 1 foot and inaudible at 3-4. The 80mm is slightly louder. With the ULNA, both fans are inaudible at 1+ feet.
"Noctua's entry into the quiet fan market has been successful. The NF-R8 and especially the NF-12S are both solid, quiet case fans. About the quietest I've ever seen (heard) actually. There's a lot of potential with the SSO bearings and improved blade designs and the fans themselves do the technology justice. Furthermore, with a 6 year warranty they'll back up their word."
