I used two of these fans to replace the default Dynamix fans in their 12U cabinet, and couldn't be happier with the outcome. I can now run the cabinet fans continuously at a low speed. I paired the fans with the Noctua NA-FC1 controller enabling me to manually set the speed of the fans. A great solution for a much quieter cabinet in the garage.

Dont waste your time of searching or trying to find color alternatives. 1)If you need performance- THATS the ONLY choice of perfection. 2)Noise -well, it doesnt exist , as a sound producer speaking - it doesnt hurt your ears ,doesnt make buzzing sounds,does not vibrate . Turbined after 1700rpm-but not loud absolutely! Grab it ! P.S. Personally i install now only this Fan in all my machines.

I recently purchased an i9 13900k and z790 motherboard. I planned on using my noctua d-15 for cooling. The temperatures i first experienced where high and fluctating, peaking in the high 80's. Due to the size constraints of ram and motherboard I used a noctua 120mm fan to ensure I still had a fan attached to both cooling towers.The latest Intel ILM is garbage, a joke, even after less than 24 hrs you can see the spread of thermal paste the the heat block was not fully contacting. The thermal grizzly plate fixed this right up, 15 degrees lower immediately. It should be standard on this chips set and Intel need to have realise the stock one is horrific. Get one and stay cool

These fans are great to upgrade cpu cooler fans for the scythe fuma 2 or the deep cool cpu cooler which can take up to 3 fans not sure about the dark rock pro. Would be nice if these fans were available in a black color instead of just brown.
These are premium fans that demand a premium price.These fans come with superior craftsmanship and technical qualities, and they practically last forever.Definitely recommended if you want the best!
Noctua are just one of those brands you will remember for life. Their attention to detail in every aspect of this fan is amazing. If you want ultimate performance and durability.
Overall this was a really good fan, high quality and has very good airflow. Comes with a abundance of accessories and adapters, only complaint is that microcenter had it listed at an inflated price of $42 when it’s msrp is $31-$32. They ended up not letting me price match it to the msrp and use a coupon I had, so I could only use the coupon, not both. Otherwise, it is very good!
The best fans in the world. This title is not someone holds for nothing and noctua's fans are a proud holder. I have seen many reviews of noctua's fans on YouTube and all say the same: no sound and great performance. Now that I have two of them cooling my AIO I can not but agree. I am surprised and amazed with how they works, really quiet. You can hear only the air passing through, and the best is that my temps decreased 2 degree. At full load I got 24C and in quiet mode a stable 31C. I can not be more happy with this upgrade.
Basically, its a Fan made for extreme cooling with medium-low loudness when you need it, and deadly quiet when youre just using your pc casually. Best of both worlds.This is your perfect high-end all-around premium fan. Its extremely quiet up to the point of optimal cooling and if you look to overclock and do funky stuff with your pc-components, it will guarantee optimal airflow thats almost on an water-cooling level and will keep your GPU/CPU always in safe temperature. And if you're not overclocking and just casually using your computer, the fans are so silent you wont even hear them. I thought at first they werent working because theyre so silent. As a fact of matter, the only noise i hear is the air WITHIN my pc circulating and not the fans themselves, but ... MoreBasically, its a Fan made for extreme cooling with medium-low loudness when you need it, and deadly quiet when youre just using your pc casually.

As a fact of matter, the only noise i hear is the air WITHIN my pc circulating and not the fans themselves, but you'd have to press your ear against your PC case to even hear that. Make sure though that if you opt for a COMPLETE quiet system to make sure that your CPU/evt. GPU fan is also manufactured to be silent. When spinning with FULL RPM, you can hear these fans though when not wearing a headset or listening to music. Even then its as loud as an average low-spinning Fan which isn't that noticeable at all.HOWEVER, if you dont overclock your PC, dont care about the noise as much (ex. headset casual gamer) or just use to replace a faulty fan of your working-PC, dont bother. It's an extremely premium fan and costs a fortune therefore. with the price of one of these fans, you can buy 4 normal fans and get your PC-airflow up and running. Its a fan for only overclocking and quietness-freaks like me, and had to save a fortune to buy a couple of them. It's your call really. If you have the money def. go for it
After replacing my old fans with these, it almost sounds like the computer isn't even on. Most of the time they're virtually silent like that. Under a moderate load (like in some games) they become audible, but not overwhelmingly so. I can still easily hear the game or a video over the noise.Installation is super easy, especially if you use the included rubber mounts
