Its pricier than other fans. It would be nicer to have a built in resistor in the fan with a switch that can be accessed from the back of the PC instead of having to switch adapters every time you want to change the speed.

Noctua NFS12B FLX 120mm Fan PDF Print Email
Fan cables are sleeved but the adapters are not
Colors may not work for everyone's taste
Price (The NFP12 does perform a bit better for around the same price and yields better static pressure)
Easy to install and use, Flexible speed settings, Very low sonar levels at maximum air flow,
None that we could find
We have been reviewing fans for a very long time now and every time we face a Noctua product we get excited more and more. Waiting on that new special fan that will make everything cooler and quieter. Air cooling is still very much used everywhere you ...
Abstract: Generally I'm a big fan of international products. My favorite band is from Finland, my favorite television personality is from Scotland, and my favorite actor is from England. It seems that things made in the USA these days don't really last as long ...
I am very much pleased with the performance and noise reduction that this cooling fan is capable of. While I would prefer better cooler, I still am not complaining. Now, if the fan was a little faster than 1200 rpm than I wouldn't have any issues. Just...
Fairly Quiet (Low dBa), Great Airflow (CFMs), All necessary hardware included, Adjustable fan speed with the included adapters, 6 year warranty

Between the NF-P12 and the new NF-S12B, Noctua provides two premium-class fans, which have been optimized for specific fields of application. Choosing the appropriate model can therefore help you to obtain even better results. Nevertheless, both the N...
So the performance was amazing, that's not really a shocker. I don't think I have had a bad experience with any Noctua product and we have reviewed just about everything they make. My only complaints are with their choice of colors for their fans...

Once again Noctua has proven itself in performance and reliability. The low-noise fan is designed to be as efficient as possible, while quiet as possible. Using several methods, Noctua is able to get the most out of every single drop of power. This is ...
Abstract: In the past, we have written three separate articles on five different Noctua products: The Noctua NF-S12-800, NF-S12-1200, NF-R8 review, the Noctua NF-P12 review, and the Noctua NH-U12P review. Now, lets name one Noctua article that Ive wrote in the...
Good performance, Very quiet, Good overall package, 6 year warranty
Slightly more expensive than an average fan
Noctua makes excellent products and the NF-S12B FLX is no different. It is certainly a unique fan in terms of aesthetics, design and engineering. This is especially evident in the attention to detail that Noctua has paid to the fan - for example, the b...
Abstract: Cool and Quiet. A tall order for any computer product, to be sure. Some people look for the best performance, some want low noise levels, and some want a good balance of both. Often performance comes with a price, one of which is Noise. They are usuall...
