The NF-A12x14 PWM Chromax Silent Fans by Noctua are indeed amazing pieces of silent engineering and worthwhile upgrades for custom rig builds.
▪Construction and Features 10/10
The construction is a composite of PBS plastic with metal bearings and silicone reduction pads. The fans are very light and the construction is sound, No part of this product feels cheap. The set comes is with silicone reduction pads come in six colours to tailor to your custom rig theme and are easily and securely fixed when attached. Additionally the 4-Pin connector cable is very sturdy and comes with a sheathed extender cable which is also very sturdy yet flexible.
•Functionality and Performance 10/10
When installed these fans are near silent at default speeds. Audibly there is no strain and when benchmarked with decent temperature and airflow.
10/10
Though the fans in my old setup were not exactly loud fans, These Chromax fans are like ninjas in comparison. The decibels are still low at medium and performance settings and given that my rig is on top of the desk next to my monitor the silence is much appreciated. The price is definitely indicative of the quality and performance of these fans and well work the price of admission.
