Cons: -Too expensive-Noctua color scheme is still horrible
Pros: -Quiet-Rubber on the edges of the fan so it doesn't rattle Comment:
Bought this fan since it's one of the only two 60mm fan sold by NCIX at the moment. I would have prefered a fan around 5$ but this one works very well. |

Cons: I don't think it moves as much air as claimed
Pros: Extremely quiet Comment:
This fan does exactly what I wanted it to do - I bought it as a replacement for the existing rear fans in a Thermaltake Lanbox Lite. They are whisper quiet, and although I doubt it moves the amount of air claimed, it definitely moves considerably more air than the stock fans it replaced. If you are looking for a quiet fan, look no further.PS: Shipping was excellent. Ordered on sunday evening, they arrived on tuesday. |

Cons: I think its expensive for it's size. Rotor blades could have been molded closer to inner housing.
Pros: Quiet blades, no switching noise.Quality plastic resists cracking or breaking and works well with included self-taping screws.Includes screws and rubber push-in mounts.Includes two speed adapters, Molex 4-pin adapter, 30cm detachable extension cable.Built-in rubber standoffs to help isolate the fan from the cabinet/case/grill. Comment:
This fan doesn't emit a steady single "weeee" tone that most fans this size would make. The blades are rather quiet and I do hear a higher tone at low speeds but I don't recognize it is switching drive noise, and its not a problem five feet distance away. With the ULNA inline speed adapter its obviously quiet but not silent to me, yet over the years I have found that larger fans are virtually always quieter respective of moving several times the air volume, and let face it that a big fan will not always fit the application. The wires and adapters all plug in fine.I would like to see Noctua offer restrictive heat sink-optimised variants in the future like they do in the 120mm class, with tight close blade spacing or blade overlap for high pressure & medium-low airflow, rather than just high free airflow. Overall I feel it is well made and lives up to it's design objective thus far, because most fans in this size range are annoying sounding by comparison. The biggest thing above all is the absence of high pitched switching noise from the motor. I would recommend it where a 60mm fan is required. |
Noctua fans are still king of the hill when it comes to performance and noise. I'm pretty happy with the bundle this comes with as it gives lots of options of hookups and speeds. Can't go wrong ever getting these.
