## Description

Product description Having received dozens of awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines, the NF-A12x15 has established itself as a default choice when it comes to premium-quality slim 120mm fans. The chromax.black.swap edition combines the NF-A12x15’s signature quiet cooling performance with an attractive all-black design and a bundle of self-adhesive red, white, blue, green, yellow and black anti-vibration pads that allow the colour-customisation of the fan to match individual build colour schemes. Topped off with Noctua’s trusted premium-grade SSO2 bearing and more than 150,000 hours MTTF, the NF-12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap is the perfect choice for all users who value individual, focused build aesthetics just as much as class-leading quality and performance. 15mm slim design Having a thickness of only 15mm, the NF-A12x15 is much slimmer than standard 120x25mm fans. This makes it ideal for typical slim fan applications such as low-profile CPU coolers as well as for freeing up space by replacing standard 120x25mm fans on tower coolers, radiators or in PC cases. Self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in 6 colours The NF-A12x15 PWM chromax.black.swap comes with 8 swappable, self-adhesive anti-vibration pads in black, white, red, blue, green and yellow respectively, which allow the fan to be fully colour-customised in order to coordinate it with other components or popular build schemes. SSO2 bearing The NF-A12x15 features the further optimised second generation of Noctua's renowned, time-tested SSO bearing. With SSO2, the rear magnet is placed closer to the axis to provide even better stabilisation, precision and durability. Metal-reinforced motor hub With many larger-diameter slim fan designs, the shorter axis and bearing lead to a reduced running stability and lifespan. The NF-A12x15 uses a metal-reinforced motor hub, a measure typically found in high-speed industrial fans, in order to ensure Noctua’s signature stability and longevity. Optional coloured cables Noctua’s chromax line fans use a modular cabling system and come pre-fitted with a fully sleeved black NA-EC1 30cm cable. For refined colour coordination, white, red, blue, green and yellow 30cm NA-EC1 cables plus corresponding NA-YC1 y-cables are available separately. chromax.black.swap edition Maximising colour choices, the NF-A12x15 chromax.black.swap fan can be colour-customised using the included self-adhesive anti-vibration pads as well as optional coloured cables.

Review: Skinny, silent but powerful! - Perfect (but tight) fit in the Thor Zone Nanooq S case with an AMD 9070 XT GPU. Positioned at the front as exhaust. Super-quiet.
Review: Worth the expense. - I haven't built a PC in over ten years so I researched and agonized over pretty much every component before I bought them. Any apprehension you have before spending money on these fans is totally understandable. They're expensive, but what I got in delivery was worth it. The packaging is quality, with the fan and connected extension, and a separate container tucked in the box for the colored anti-vibration pads. The fans are slender, heavy, and when you flick them they'll go for what seems like forever. The color anti-vibration pads are a neat touch and come in multiple colors. Kids wanted each to be a rainbow. Installation had some headaches because the provided screws didn't mesh well with the holes in my NR600 case. They required a lot of torque to tap into the plastic of the fan but tightened securely after that. Removing them, in the incredibly unlikely event that you might have a mental lapse and install the fan pointing the wrong direction, is a cinch. When the time came to turn my new PC on I admit I panicked because I couldn't hear the fans. With my ceiling fan going I can't hear them at all. These run a nearly silent low frequency hum that I can barely hear over ambient noise. There's a premium price to pay for silence with air movement but it's totally worth it. Just be aware that unlike the brown and tan version, there's no splitter included. You'll have to find your own splitter or a PWM header for each fan if you want speed control. Pros: Scary quiet. Moves a lot of air. Feels sturdy. Stickers! Cons: Expensive. Weird short cord with an extension attached. Expensive.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the airflow for theses fans?**
A: 55.44 CFM

**Q: Is this a static pressure fan or a case/airflow fan?**
A: This fan is primary I’ll for airflow is small form factor cases. A better option for a static pressure fan would be the Noctua NF-F12 PWM.

**Q: Would this be a good or if not, a better alternative for my 240mm radiator fans?**
A: Unless you are trying to save space you are better off with 25mm fans, higher airflow and quieter operation. Some good Noctua fans are almost always better than what comes with an AIO. Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM are probably the best but Noctua also makes 120x25mm Chromax.

**Q: Has this product been discontinued?**
A: No

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rock-Solid Noctua Quality
*by J***E on December 22, 2025*

I’ve been running this fan in my build for about 7 weeks now, and it’s been excellent. Fit and finish are top-notch, installation was easy, and it performs great in a space-constrained setup. Noise levels are very low, even under load, and airflow is impressive for a 15mm slim fan. The chromax.black design is a nice bonus if you care about aesthetics. No complaints so far.
