NF-P12 Opinión
Hinsichtlich seines Geräuschbildes hebt sich der verbaute NF-P12 durchaus von seinen günstigeren Kontrahenten ab. Bei maximalen 1300 U/min sind leichte Luftumschlagsgeräusche zu vernehmen, die subjektiv etwas weicher ausfallen. Ab 7 Volt abwärts gibt der unorthodox gefärbte Ventilator absolut keinen Mucks mehr von sich. Entscheidend dabei: Nervige Nebengeräusche wie Rotorschleifen, -Rasseln oder -Klackern, wie wir sie häufig beobachten müssen, scheinen dem NF-P12 vollkommen fremd.

NF-P12 Opinión
It beat out all of the other fans we put it up against even though the gap narrowed a bit in the last water cooling test. This shows that the high degree of engineering put into this product was not just window dressing since it performs exactly as Noctua promises and then some. Whether it was cooling a Thermalright heatsink or a Black Ice radiator, the NF-P12 proved that it was the best choice for applications which call for a high amount of static pressure. Without a doubt, every part of Noctua’s fan is top notch in terms of build quality and performance. I also like the fact that all of the mounting hardware is included and as well as two prepackaged adaptors for lowering the rotational speed of the fan.
What really surprised me was the distinct lack of noise produced by this Noctua fan. I was prepared for a moderate increase in noise over the NF-S12 fans I was using on my case but lo and behold, the NF-P12 equaled the quiet performance of Noctua’s older fans. To have this kind of performance with the lack of blade or motor noise is a dream come true for people who demand the quietest PC possible. In many cases, an enthusiast will buy a fan speed controller or build their own resistors into a fan’s wiring in order to lower the amount of noise produced by a fan. With the NF-P12 that is no longer necessary since not only does it offer near-silent operation but Noctua has also included two fan speed adaptors to lower RPMs for even less noise.

NF-P12 Opinión
Utilising both the NF-S12 and NF-P12 120mm fans on the radiator for our cooling tests yielded some interesting results. I have included some Scythe S-FLEX results in the chart to help make a comparison. The NF-S12 800 gets left behind at 7v, but the NF-P12 performs better than the Scythe S-FLEX's thanks to its increased static pressure. The NF-P12 certainly has the goods and it performs well whilst being almost totally quiet. Excellent effort Noctua!

NF-P12 Opinión
The first thing you'll notice with the Noctua NF-P12 fan is the lack of noise at all rpm levels. The next thing you'll see in the testing results is that the Noctua fan performs better than the other fans while running at a lower fan speed. Obviously the design of the Noctua is excellent, allowing better performance at a lower fan speed while maintaining virtually no noise. Essentially what we are seeing here is that the Noctua NF-P12 is more efficient at moving air than the other fans tested, something that is very desirable with any type of fan.

NF-P12 Opinión
As decibelmeters don't tell everything I also did some more subjective noise tests. I listened to the noise of both fans to judge which one makes the least noise but this wasn't an easy task as both fans are very quiet. At a distance of more than a meter you practically won't be able to hear them unless your room is very quiet. The noise production of both fans seems to be about even but I have to admit that the psychoacoustic optimizations seem to work as when I put the fans right next to my ear I found the noise produced by the NF-P12 a bit more pleasant.

NF-P12 Opinión
It's incredible the volume that this fan produces and equally incredible when you see not only the airflow figures but the static pressures. It obvious that this fan has been designed for watercooling setups where static pressure plays a large role.

NF-P12 Opinión
Die Noctua NF-A12X25 Lüfter sind derzeit ab knapp 30 Euro und die NF-P12 Lüfter ab knapp 18 Euro im Handel erhältlich. Dabei markiert die erst genannte Lüfter-Serie die derzeitige Spitzenklasse in Sachen Leistung und Lautstärke, jedoch dicht gefolgt vom NF-P12. Beide Lüfter eignen sich hervorragend für den Einsatz auf CPU Kühlern oder Radiatoren und sind ausgezeichnet verarbeitet. Beim NF-P12 kann der interessierte Nutzer sich zwischen der für Noctua typischen Farbgebung oder für die Redux Variante in Grautönen entscheiden. Diese Wahl gibt es beim NF-A12X25 nicht.

NF-P12 Opinión
Noctua NF-P12
Bot die mit beste Leistung im Test, knapp vor seinem Markengefährten S12B und dem Cougar, aber hinter den drehzahlstärkeren Aerocool und Silverstone.
Alle drei waren trotz deutlich geringerer Drehzahl aber minimal besser als der Enermax PWM.
Nahezu unhörbar, frei von Nebengeräuschen, selbst der Luftumschlag auf dem Megahalems war kaum wahrnehmbar.

NF-P12 Opinión
The Noctua NF-P12 comes with plenty of accessories for installation/setup and if you watched the video without skipping, in the tests it was fantastic and absolutely silent on both of the lower speed settings (using both low noise adaptors), even when they are running at full speed you’d expect the noise level to rise but the noise level was not very high compared to other various fans I have used. I used five of the Noctua NF-P12 in the BitFenix Shinobi Window chassis and they noise level is just pleasant to my ears, silent indeed.

Yes, Low-Noise Adaptors (L.N.A.s) can be used with y-cables, but please make sure to use one L.N.A. per fan and to place the L.N.A.s between the y-cable and the fans as shown below. Never use one L.N.A. for two (or more fans) by placing it between the mainboard and the y-cable!
How should I clean my Noctua fan?
In order to ensure flawless operation over many years of usage, Noctua’s premium grade SSO bearings are fully sealed to prevent the entering of fine dust particles. Please note that the fan is not designed to be taken apart by the user. Removing the impeller from the frame will break the sealing of the bearing and results in a loss of warranty.
What pin configuration do Noctua 12V fans use?
Can I disassemble my fan for cleaning (or other purposes, e.g. painting)?
It is thus recommended to clean your fans using a duster, slightly moist tissue or canned air. Please be careful not to use too much force in order to prevent any damage to the fan. Please don’t use a vacuum cleaner as this may apply excessive force to the fan.
Can Noctua fans be used to replace noisy stock fans in NAS devices?
Noctua fans such as the 40, 60, 80, 92 or 120mm NF-A series models are ideal for replacing noisy stock fans in NAS devices in order to make them quieter and thousands of users have managed to significantly reduce the noise levels of their NAS units this way. However, while it is easy and straightforward to replace the fans in some cases, it can be very difficult in others, so Noctua strongly recommends that users carefully research if it is possible to easily replace the fan(s) of their NAS device before purchasing a Noctua fan for this purpose. Some of the common issues that can occur when replacing NAS fans are:
- Different pin assignment: Whereas Noctua fans use the standardised pin assignment for PC fans (see this FAQ for details), some NAS units use different assignments. For example, some devices have the power and GND or rpm and PWM pins swapped. Therefore please carefully verify that your NAS device uses the same pin assignment as standard fans. Experienced users may also change the pin assignment by cutting and resoldering the fan cables, but please note that this will void your Noctua manufacturer’s warranty.
- Different pin functions: Noctua fans use the standardised pin functions for PC fans (see this FAQ for details); however, some NAS units use fans where certain pins serve a different function. For example, some devices use the RPM pin for “power good” signals. Therefore please carefully verify that your NAS device uses the same pin functions.
- Firmware speed control: Some NAS devices demand a certain maximum or minimum fan speed. If the new fan doesn’t have the same or similar maximum or minimum speed, the device may display errors or even shut down.
- Different starting voltage: Most NAS devices use voltage-based speed control. If the new fan has a higher starting voltage than the original fan, it may not start up right away. This may lead the NAS device to display errors or even shut down because it suspects a fan failure.
- Different power draw: Some NAS devices monitor the fan’s power draw. If the new fan has a lower power consumption than the stock fan, the device might display errors or even shut down.
Please note that most NAS manufacturers don’t provide detailed documentation regarding fan compatibility and control, so users who want to replace the fans of their devices usually have to rely on “How to” guides, blog and forum posts or video tutorials. For example, there are excellent video tutorials available for changing the fans in popular Synology NAS models (DS416j, DS1515+ and DS1812+ in English, DS416/DS415/DS916/DS216/DS214 and DS1515+ in German). Please also note that fan compatibility and control can vary from model to model and even from revision to revision even if the devices stem from the same manufacturer. As a result, it is important to make sure that the information or guidelines you rely on when replacing your NAS fan are applicable to your specific model as well as your specific hardware and firmware revision.
Due to the possible issues listed above, Noctua recommends that only experienced users attempt to replace their NAS fans. Please note that since there are so many different NAS models and most of them lack documentation for aspects such as fan compatibility and control, Noctua customer support cannot assist you with compatibility issues when replacing NAS fans. Please contact your NAS manufacturer for any questions regarding aspects such as the device’s pin alignment or fan monitoring and control.
