  Attention, the silicone mounts are not compatible with some cases (e.g., Corsair 4000D). Nevertheless, I have three of the same in a PC with screws instead of the silicone mounts and it is incredibly quiet. If you are not interested in the lighting, there are no better fans.

  Quality and effective construction accompanied by the very useful adapter for reducing speed from 1200 to 900 rpm (silent). The only flaw for me is the color, unless you exclude the high cost. I have connected it to a 3 Pin header on an old motherboard that does not have a 4pin PWM header other than the CPU's. The corresponding Noctua NF-S12A chromax.black does not have a low noise adapter and is also more expensive. However, if I had a new motherboard with PWM headers and a showcase case, I would choose the corresponding black one.

  -1 star for the price, around 20 euros (it's just a fan, Noctua should relax a bit). Everything else is perfect.

  4 stars due to price-performance ratio and I say this after spending 120€ on Noctua fans.
  Read below or briefly see this review at 18:11:

  Noctua is a very high-quality company that managed to convince that beige and brown = the best. The quality in the construction of the nf-s12a is indeed high. They smell nice right out of the box. The motor is completely silent compared to other companies. It has all the accessories you will need. No complaints regarding the construction.

  So why 4 stars?
  Because I also fell victim to marketing. Surely when you buy 5 Noctua fans* and spend 120 euros, you want to believe that you have bought the best because otherwise it's like saying you've been fooled. No one wants to feel bad after their purchase, so they raise the expectations a bit higher than what they actually deserve and say the best things.

  When the nf-s12a came out in 2013, it was indeed a very good choice as other manufacturers did not focus on noise in 2013.
  But now the market has changed. With 22 euros, you can buy 5 Arctic p12 fans that are equally silent: https://www.skroutz.gr/s/17302586/Arctic-P12-PWM-PST-Value-Pack.html

  So in conclusion, am I satisfied? Partially yes, but I would have preferred someone to have written a review that says the above and saved me 100 euros.

  *I bought 3x nf-s12a and 2x nf-a15

  Completely silent and does exactly what it's supposed to do. Impeccable packaging with many accessories for different installation methods.

  Highly recommended!

  Completely silent fan. The box in which it is shipped is very well made. What reduces, perhaps, even more the noise that could come from this component are the rubber casings that are placed on the 4 corners of the fan as well as the rubber supports. There are also regular screws in the package but they are not needed. The supports do their job just fine. Just don't tighten them too much or they will break when adjusting the fan properly. My ear was satisfied with the complete lack of noise. The amount of air it produces (it has been placed on the front of my case) is also considered sufficient. Overall, a very successful purchase (June 2019).

  Simply amazing. The package contains everything one might need during installation. The construction quality is outstanding. It's worth every euro.

  Positives:
  - Completely silent. You can't hear anything literally, only the flow of air. Mechanical noises are nonexistent. The case's grilles have been designed to minimize the phenomenon of air turbulence when it hits the grille and returns. (The dB levels mentioned by the manufacturers are with free airflow)
  - Many accessories. It includes a splitter to connect two fans in one position, an extension in case the cable doesn't reach a fan, a low noise fan adapter (a cable with resistance for approximately 25% reduction in speed) which this fan doesn't really need since it's PWM and can be controlled through the BIOS. I used all of these accessories with a second be quiet fan that I downgraded to intake, and the Noctua took the position of exhaust, which is the most important for removing the hot air generated by the processor before it raises the case temperature. So, I didn't mind finding all of these in the package :)

  Negatives:
  - Price, but I would never say that it's not worth its money. The quality is exceptional. 20 euros may be a lot for a case fan, but if you want optimal performance with the least possible noise, I think it's the only way to go.
  - The colors don't match most cases, including mine. But it's not a big deal!

  Noctua! Guarantee in fans! Building PCs in recent years, it is the only brand I trust now. Very high-quality products with only one negative, which, however, is completely a matter of personal taste: their colors. As for this fan, I can say that it has exceptional air flow (the case also plays a role) and is practically silent. I have had it for over 3 months without any problems.

  The best fans in terms of airflow-noise ratio are worth every penny and more! Noticeable temperature difference and noticeable noise difference.
