Pros & Cons
Pros
This fan produces good static pressure and good airflow. Using it both in an airflow (rear exhaust) and pressure (heatsink) environments i feel the performance is truly top notch. They are ultra-quiet and are ideal for cooling radiators and processor ... Read More
These fans really are magic. These fans are awesome. Noctua is honestly the gold standard when it comes to fans.
And it stays this quiet whilst moving an absurd amount of air. It's not silent, probably due to the design of the nas itself and not the fan, but it is a good amount quieter.
The fan build quality is flawless and performance is as good as it gets. Just one look over these fans immediately shows how much more care and excellent engineering went into their design and manufacture. They are the pinnacle of how a computer fan s... Read More
The fan is not cheap at $30 however the build and feel of the fan feels extremely premium. They are expensive but they are very durable and great for heavy duty use. Worth every penny.

Highlights
Quality
Very nice build quality, no motor noise or anything like that.
Quality:fans are heavy and feel like they were built carefully and beautifully.
Do yourself a favor and start upgrading your pc fans.
Going into this brand of fans, i had expectations wayyy too high and expected them to never make a single sound.
Price
That price is an excellent representation of its worth.

Packaging/appearance
All this included in a fancy package, with more packaging information then you could ever want to learn about with the fans.

Competitiveness
Overall:this fan came out on may 2, 2018, and has yet to be superseded by a better noctua fan nor any other brand.
Meanwhile, i've had other brands die out on me over time.

Theres a limiter that you can put in on the wires to further quiet things down but gosh i dont see any situation where youd need that unless you were burning up your pc playing the most intensive games out there
