Noctua NF-F12 5V CPU cooler + fan Brown, Beige (W x H x D) 120 x 120 x 25 mm

The NF-F12 5V is a special 5V version of Noctuas award-winning NF-F12 120mm premium fan. With its AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimization) frame and advanced aerodynamic design measures such as the FocusedFlow™ system, the NF-F12 achieves superior performance with minimum operating noise. The Smooth Commutation Drive technology as well as the reference class bearing SSO2 guarantee excellent smoothness and excellent long-term stability. The complete package is rounded off by a USB power adapter cable, as well as the OmniJoin™ adapter set – an all-round high-quality premium solution for demanding 5V applications.

Award-winning NF-F12 design
With more than 100 recommendations and awards from the international trade press, the NF-F12 has become a reference in the field of high-quality 120mm fans. Its outstanding efficiency has already convinced tens of thousands of customers around the world.

5V version
5V fans are used in a wide range of devices and applications. The NF-F12 5V is a proven premium solution, which is delivered with a USB power adapter cable and an OmniJoinTM adapter set, in order to give you full flexibility both when replacing existing 5V fans as well as in new, alternative applications.

Focused Flow™ Frame
Designed for pressure-sensitive applications such as air coolers or water cooling radiators, the has eleven stator vanes that direct and focus the airflow. Thus the NF-F12 achieves power values, which conventional fans only achieve at significantly higher speeds.

Varying Angular Distance and Vortex Control Notches
The stator guide vanes of the NF-F12 are arranged with varying angular distance (Varying Angular Distance) and have Vortex-Control Notches. Both measures help distribute the noise emission over a wider frequency range, making the fan less disturbing to the human ear.

Heptaperf™ impeller
The seven-leaf blade used in the NF-F12 has been specially developed to perfectly harmonize with the FocusedFlow™ frame and its eleven stator guide vanes. Thus the NF-F12 achieves the best possible balance between performance and smoothness.

AAO frame system
Noctuas AAO (Advanced Acoustic Optimization) frames have integrated vibration buffers, a stepped inlet design and an internal surface microstructure (Inner Surface Microstructures) that enable even better performance/noise efficiency.

Quilted inlet design
The stepped inlet area of the Stepped Inlet Design creates more turbulence in the supply. This facilitates the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow, which is better attached to the frame (flow attachment) and thus increases the suction capacity of the fan, especially with a limited suction area.

Inner Surface Microstructures
The inner surface microstructure (Inner Surface Microstructures) creates a boundary layer through which the tips of the fan blades move. This reduces the current separation from the suction side of the blade tips, resulting in a significant reduction of the rotating tone and an increase in the pressure and air flow efficiency.

Integrated anti-vibration pads
The anti-vibration pads made of extra-soft silicone reduce the transmission of minimal vibrations and are also compatible with all commercially available mounting systems and fan clamps used in CPU coolers.

Smooth Commutation Drive 2
The latest, enhanced version of Noctuas SCD drive system guarantees excellent smoothness by eliminating torque fluctuations and switching noise. This makes the fan itself surprisingly quiet from close up.

Reverse polarity protection
Since many devices with 5V fans use proprietary connectors and in many cases no documentation of pin assignment is available, the fan is protected against polarity reversal by an internal diode. This way, you are always on the safe side if you connect it with the wrong polarity.

SSO2 bearings
The NF-F12 is the first fan equipped with the further optimized second generation of Noctua's proven SSO bearing system. With SSO2 the rear magnet sits closer to the fan axis and thus causes an even better stabilization, which leads to a further improved precision and durability.

Metal bearing shell
In order to guarantee the greatest possible degree of manufacturing precision, minimum tolerances and excellent long-term stability, the NF-F12 uses a CNC machined bearing shell made of brass.

OmniJoin™ adapter set
Since many devices, in which 60mm fans are used, have proprietary fan plugs, the NF-F12 5V is delivered with Noctuas OmniJoin adapter set. Simply cut off the cable of the original fan, attach it to the adapter with the supplied 3M Scotchlok™ terminals and you can operate the NF-F12 5V with proprietary connections!

USB-power adapter cable
The fan is supplied with a USB power adapter cable, with which it can be operated on power banks, devices with USB host ports or USB power supplies (such as from smartphones). This opens up countless applications in your own home, in the car, or wherever there is a need for cooling!

Comprehensive connection options
While the 20cm short primary cable helps to avoid cable mess in typical applications, the included 30cm extension offers extra range for all cases. Both cables are fully shrouded.
