Noctua NF-F12 iPPC-3000 PWM - Fan Noise 

Lolllllll🤣

😂

xaxaxa

LMAO

Blwn away vs flown away

Yeah I've been looking to them for the past couple days just wanna see what kind of way to control the speeds .

@@MDGOrbit I'm using MSI Dragon Center although I only have 3 options, 50%, 75% and 100% speed. I've been using 75% I was using 100% but there wasn't really any temp difference between 75% and 100% so I figured 75% since it's less power and less noise.

Its 186.7 m cube per hour...which when converted gives 109 CFM

@@avijitsinha9286 no it's 158.5 CFM Edit: nvm I was looking at the 140mm version

@ッDazeen yeah as you said that's the 140mm and it'll be even louder because it doesn't lose any rpm at all compared to the 120mm 💀

@@Frozoken I mean you can just the 140mm at lower RPM thus more quiet and get same airflow

@@dazeen9591 yes but then it wouldn't be the airflow u listed

lol if you think that's crazy look at any delta fan, that makes even these noctuas look like child's play in terms of raw performance. They've got a 10000rpm (160 a second) 120mm fan that does nearly 200cfm with 23mm of static pressure. It's also 60db and uses over 20 watts per fan 💀.

Honestly? It is far more insane that a car can do that. Each piston traveling a number of inches propelled via explosion, with every rotating component riding on a cushion of oil, for many thousands of hours without fail if maintained responsibly A fan by comparison is pretty mundane. Thats not to downplay such an achievement, especially with the quality and longevity Noctua guarantees

you do realise that other fans just stop accelerating at 1500RPM cause it's their limit? at 1500RPM this fan is quite silent, especially for it's performance.

2.7 is probably the peak of noise, when would you actually need your fans to get that high?

​@@andso7068 for maximum cooling, but these have PWM and you can easily limit it to 2000rpm or whatever you want. These fans are better build quality and will last longer than the conventional ones.

it will never reach full speed if you set up it properly.

@@Todbrecher this one has an incredible airflow, but it isn't silent, even at 1.5k RPM, and not all fans are silent at this RPM's!

@@uluth ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sCHf7hn2AJw.html This On my other channel. A spoof video i made. Lol But the card is actually a GTX 1660Super with two 120mm Noctua IPPC fans.

Do you mean the buzzing sound? Because the humming sound is just a consequence of this fan's design, unfortunately. But the motor buzzing audible at lower speeds is exclusive to the iPPC fans.

I think there are a few factors that contribute to this: 1. This fan is moderate weight for its size (168g, 120x25mm). 2. This fan is designed to perform well in high-impedance applications. It does still move a lot of air in low impedance applications, but not as much as many other designs. 3. The effect of the cable. With the way I have the fan positioned in most of these videos, the cable is behind and below the fan, pulling it backwards slightly. I also have a lot of extensions weighing the cable down, which would increase the pull force. 4. The focus of the airflow. I think fans which create more focused airflow will generate more thrust force per unit of air moved. This fan has straight blades, and straight stator vanes, so the airflow isn't as focused as other designs with curved forward blades, and curved stator vanes. These are just guesses though.

Yes, this fan is a fair bit larger than those GPU fans.

I used the Noctua NA-FC1 and a bunch of extensions.

@@ydihtty did u do it over usb or did you connect it to a fan header

@@martingeorge2006 Connected to a fan header

I have some 120mm fans which reach much higher speeds than this one

i was thinking the same kkkk

they're 3000rpm industrial fans, what were you expecting?

@@NonLegitNation2 To be fair, they are also quite noisy even at lower speeds due to the blade/stator design, other industrial fans have (in my opinion) better designs in this regard.

Honestly I feel like the Phanteks T30 is probably a better choice, it's often cheaper too from what I've seen.

300rpm won't move much air, you might want higher speeds than that.

@@ydihtty pardon me for my typo 🤣, it should be 3000

Ah. Well 3000 rpm will move a lot of air, so it will keep stuff cool. It will just be very loud.

because that fan is industrial Protected Performance Cooling (iPPC fan).. so they are very loud, because also the RPM the fan itself maximum at 3000rpm.. yes even with lower rpm, can be still loud..

@@dwikiramadhan7332 1. Don't act like i'm an idiot, obviously I KNOW that is a iPPC fan, you unfortunately tried but teach me nothing here. 2. I Know this this not a case fan but still it is bad, there are no reason for this one to be sell anymore, P12 ans A12x25 are both better fans. Anyway nobody (even pro) need 3000rpm at only 120mm, it make no sense at all. It is loud because the conception is not that great (this design is old)

Yes

+1000

Yeah, too bad he forgot the last one at 3K RPM.

@@PerfectionHunter I figured at that point it would be so loud that it's a bit pointless. Still would serve as a good reference though

Exactly.

I see this as an absolute win

that s a plus in my book

HAHAHAH! You are right!

Yeah. Also just measuring raw CFM isn't that helpful unless you're planning on using the fan with zero impedance. The NF-F12 is designed for good performance at high impedances, so it might be more helpful to measure CFM through a radiator or something like that.

@@ydihtty Could you use an inexpensive Digital Decibel Meter? Unfortunately without it, understanding the actual noise is difficult.

@@agataerminiapennisi5504 Just imagine a fighter jet

What an annoying sound.

@@cipherbenchmarks this recording had vibrations i don't have present on my nf 12. yes this thing is loud but i don't find it bothersome because i use headphones often when gaming and i run it silent when its not. my temps are ridiculously low.

I have it really only stings a bit but didn't cut

The fans have protection it will just die for a second after you stop it and start up again.

Does this little fan push air well.

hey, I just did that today! about 1400 rpm actually. Not fun! and now I'm buying more!

Nothing will happen, they are low torque 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

I think its an aero sound rather than a motor sound, due to interaction between the trailing edge of the blade and the leading edge of the stator vanes. They line up, instead of having more of an angle that other fans have, so they create a very audible tone.

@@ydihtty It's difficult to design any fan that spins at 2200+ RPM and doesn't have a disagreeable sound. Compared to a cheap ball bearing fan, this fan is relatively quiet.

@@Magnulus76 This fan just has a bad design though. Look at every other fan which uses stator vanes, they are curved or angled to not line up with the trailing edge of the blades. This is the only fan which has them line up, and it ends up functioning similarly to a rotary siren. Plenty of other fan designs produce similar performance while sounding a lot less annoying. The radiator fan of my Radeon 6900XT LC is a good example, its a Delta FFB1212SJ-F00. I might try to do a video on this fan soon, its a great design.

@@ydihtty The F12 isn't a static-pressure oriented fat, it's a flow fan, and isn't meant for heatsinks or radiators.

@@Magnulus76 Sorry, are you confused with the Arctic F12? Because what you said is true for that, but is not true for the Noctua NF-F12. Quoted from the Noctua website: "...the NF-F12’s Focused Flow™ system creates outstanding static pressure and focuses the airflow for superior performance on heatsinks and radiators." "Its commanding performance, exhaustive set of features and Noctua’s trusted premium quality make it an elite choice for use on air coolers, radiators and other pressure demanding applications." noctua.at/en/nf-f12-pwm Also check this page: noctua.at/en/which_fan_is_right_for_me And this page: noctua.at/en/nf-a12x25-performance-comparison-to-nf-f12-and-nf-s12a So what you describe would apply more to something like the NF-S12A or S12B.

You kidding me right? I got one of those, it sounds like a vacuum cleaner.

@@harryshuman9637 brooo i love EVGA products but I have no idea how they made those damn fans so loud lmao. Highly recommend swapping the fans for these if you haven't yet. Otherwise its a fantastic cooler.

@@reaperactualgaming3075 No I mean the Noctua PPC-3000, it's loud as all hell. My case is open concept and it's sitting on the desk close to the monitor. At max RPM it's like putting your head close to a vacuum cleaner and turning it on. Very loud.

@@harryshuman9637 i apparently have the regular f12 pwm fans on my radiator and they are super quiet.

@@reaperactualgaming3075 Yeah for sure, but in my setup I have to fight for ever degree I can get. It's a SFF case with 5800X3D and 3090 crammed into it.

I mean tbf why would you look at 3000rpm fans and expect them to be quiet

@@emma6648 there is quiet then there is jet engine. A lot louder then I also expected for 3000rpm

@@enjoyed_lemon That’s because this is an industrial fan, so noise is no issue and thus not considered in the design. There is also a quieter 3000 RPM 14mm Noctua industrial fan as well (quieter because the blades and fins are less straightened, and thus don’t generate as many high pitches)

This Fan is Not for home computers, it is for industrial use. 😊

lol you think this piece of garbage has industrial level this nothing compared to delta avc and also san ace take a look at 200mm san ace at 1120cfm 1.4 kpa of pressure, this make noctua fan fly away​@@kingtolgakevinpetersoffici2031
