Slim Fans

Dirk Diggler · 2 Jun 2017 at 10:27

I'm looking for the best 120mm slim fan, ideally 15mm but could stretch to 20mm. The purpose will be air intake, and I'm looking for the usual holy grail of massive airflow with zero noise.

Any recommendations?

I've just had 2xNoctua NF-A12x15 PWM 120mm x 15mm PWM 4-pin Slim Fan Arrive for an ITX build. There's also a non PWN 3 pin version too. No idea what they're like yet but I have high hopes.

Forgot to mention, they are a brand new fan released by Noctua.

@HoneyBadger if you could give me some feedback that would be excellent. I'm already using Noctua 120mm fans in the system, so 99% sure the slim version will be perfect.

Will do but it may take a week or two. My PSU has failed so I'm sending it off today to Corsair Bolton!

I used to have the Prolimatech Ultra Sleek Vortex 140mm slim fans in a Silverstone SG05 build, didn't find it too noisy from what I can recall.

This is the 120mm version https://www.overclockers.co.uk/prolimatech-ultra-sleek-vortex-120mm-fg-011-pl.html
