Elite Bastards posted Noctua NF-S12 and NF-R8 cooling fans review

Both the NF-R8 and its bigger brother, the NF-S12, have been developed by the Austrian Institute for Heat-Transmission and Fan Technology, giving these fans a special rotor, as well as optimised blame geometry, which Noctua claim will allow both parts to perform up to 10% quieter than other equivalent cooling fan, while still giving the same throughput of air. On top of this, both of these fans also make use of a self lubricating, magnetically centred bearing, which again aids with keeping these parts performing quietly, while also hopefully aiding in their longevity.
