Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:price

Pros:High airflow and low noise, and the included resistors if you don't want to bother with fan controllers.
Comment:
I think because of the colors, I used to buy Noctua fans pretty cheap. Not any more. The earlier ones I bought are still spinning quietly 2 years later.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:None that I can think of

Pros:Silent, high quality, efficient, cheap, low cost
Comment:
This product is absolutely amazing. It's the highest quality fan I've ever used in terms of silence and efficiency. For 20,00 $ you can get a fan that will blow air silently at 1300 RPM. I highly recommend buying this product for any use.

Besides the fact that you think you're computer will start flying or you actualy think a bowing is currently flying over your house, those fans provide an exellent cooling option.

Cons:-Price

Pros:-Braided cable-Silent-comes with rubber mounts
Comment:
These are great silent fans. They dont push a huge amount of air but that is a sacrifice you have to make if you want them to be quiet.

Comment:
Great fan that works exceptionally well. Great airflow and very quiet, what more could you ask for. Will buy some more when they go on sale again. If you are making a pc that looks nice on the inside this may wreck your "look".

It's perfect for my venomous X heatsink, does it job and doesn't have to spin at 2000rpm to do great unlike other fans.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:price, not completely inaudible, adapters aren't labeled

Pros:fairly quiet, decent static pressure, decent cfm
Comment:
I got 2 of these to replace my stock case fans that rattled around too much when I under/over-volted them. I can't say I'm dissatisfied with the results, however all they really did was turn the rattling into a low pitch hum. It doesn't bother my ears as it's kind of soothing, but it's definitely not a silent fan.I wanted to get the other 120mm Noctua fans, but my front fan needs to go through 2 layers of mesh and a honeycomb grill and my rear fan needs to go through a honeycomb grill and a fan grill. This was the only thing that Noctua offered that could push through them.I'd think twice before recommending this at the normal price, but if you can get it cheap, it's worth it.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:-lower CMF-Price

Pros:+Nearly silent+9 blades for static pressure+Rubber anti-vibration isolators
Comment:
This fan is good at what it does. I got it for a CNPS 10X Flex and it worked well and unless I was in the case I could not hear it. The low CFM will limit this fan in some cases(intake, exhaust), but the static pressure makes up for it on coolers and radiators with tight fins.EDIT.Ohh yeah, it has anti vibration rubber things too, those are great.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:More vibration than I would have expected

Pros:Quiet, accessory pack is nice, air movement is good even through tight grill
Comment:
Overall I am pleased with this fan, the adapters are a nice touch, and they're simple so they shouldn't fail...ever Simply a resistor in-line with the power lead. Unfortunately I was unable to use the rubber mounts due to my case design so the small ammount of vibration this fan produces is transmitted directly to the case side

Comment:
Well.. these are DAMN good fans. The package feels as heavy as a collector's edition of a pc game XD. They come with alot of extra's like screws, rubber mounts (awesome), and molex connectors. The fan it self feels ROCK solid, like a quality build. They are very quiet too.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:The colour scheme is a little unattractive but it makes up for it in performance.

Pros:This fan moves a lot of air while still being incredible silent. I can barely here it with the case open. With it closed, I can't hear a thing.
Comment:
Great quiet fans that move alot of air. The colour of them though, might make you turn away. Recommended.

Cons:Brown?

Pros:Very quietmoves a lot of airBrown
Comment:
I've been using 3 of these fans in my TT armor for a couple months now. Aside from my psu, gpu and side fan, they provide more than enough airflow for my system. One intake, one exhaust and one pushing air over my TRUE hsf is plenty to keep an e8400 cool at 3.8ghz.Also built a system for a friend using 3 of these instead of the tri-cools in the antec p183. now, that thing is quiet.

I picked a couple of these up a while back and it has been well worth it. These fans are nearly silent and have improved airflow in my case a great deal. Would highly reccommend.

Pros:Extremely quiet, moves a lot of air, multiple speed options, two installation methods
Comment:
This is a very quiet fan that moves a lot of air. Worth every penny if you value your silence. I don't think you can ask any more out of a fan.

Cons:Price (but worth it)Ugly brown color with no LED.

Pros:QuietHigh AirflowVoltage Adjustment
Comment:
Other then these things being ugly they are the best performing 120mm fans I have ever used. Very quiet for the amount of air they move. Price is a bit high but still well worth it, they have even come down in price since I bought them so even better.I have two now in my Storm Sniper case and plan on adding another along with a few into my wife's system.They even come with voltage adjustment connectors which will slow them down and make them silent. Though they are already quiet at full so I would recommend just let them run at full RPM. This review was modfied by poster @ 11-28-09 01:20 AM

Pros:Quiet, moves air well
Comment:
I put two of these babies on my Prolimatech Megahalems Rev. B to cool my i7 920. Idle temps are 31 C and full load 54 C!! They run pretty quiet too! If you aren't ready to water cool, hands down the best air cooling solution is to put two of these fans on a Megahalem! Check out www.hardwarecanucks.com for the review. Even they recommend using these fans!

Comment:
Noctua comes out on top with another top of the line product. They redesigned their fans and came out with this, a fan capable of pushing out a lot of air and still stay silent.If you have the money and don't mind how it looks, I would definitely recommend buying it.

Noctua NF-P12-1300 CPU Cooler and Case Fan
Cons:Looks a little weird in almost all cases that I've seen.

Pros:Great wind flow. Surprisingly quiet on lower RPM's.
Comment:
This is a great fan for the money, you get great CFM, with a reasonable amount of noise at lower RPMs, they can get a little loud if you turn them full. I like them and would get another set. I only wish that they would offer the same thing in a different color scheme. These just clash with almost everything and kind of look like they're from the 80's.
