>> Noctua impresses again
There isn t much to say about this fan it is quite perfect As with all Noctua products the quality is great and it is virtually silent The fan comes with a couple of power adapters to regulate the RPM of the fan but honestly you can t hear it at full power
As a side note I am also a fan of the styling The colors are very unique and really let everyone know it is a Noctua
>> So much better
I installed two of these to replace my stock case fans that had become maddeningly loud Wow the difference is night and day They were easy to install in my case as well just popped them in and now I no longer have to crank up my speakers to hear over my PC
>> Part of My Quest for a Quiet PC
As part of my quest to quiet an older PC desktop computer I researched quiet PC case fans and came up with the Noctua 80mm fan Designed and built in Austria the fan produces a generally low decibel level particularly when compared with other case fans When I received my fan and installed it I was amazed at its quietness I would not hesitate to spend some 20 on one of these Noctua s anytime I was upgrading my desktop machine with this level of quietness By the way the fan comes in sizes all the way from 80mm to 120mm so make sure you know the size your particular desktop machine uses This fan s design shows what some computer based development coupled with acoustic sound testing and revision can produce I say Bravo But I say it in a whisper
Note If you need the same fan in a 120mm form factor try
