July 22, 20223 yr Noctua Industrial NF-F12. 120mm fan. $28 each. 3000 rpm. For the noise shy, best stay away. I've yet to see any temps as high as 62C in MSFS. Almost always in the 50's. One 120mm fan on a Ryzen 5 5600x with a new Corsair H60 water cooler. Two fans famous for cooling: The Noctua Industrial NF-F12 (3000 rpm). And the Phantex T30 (4000). Temp chart. Degrees C above room temperature. The two fans mentioned will cool to 35 and 36 C above room temperature at full speed. The Noctua NF-F12 (57) is NOT the same fan as the Industrial version (35). "Phanteks T30 Performance" (44) not the same as "Phanteks T30" (36) ----- Noise chart Vertical axis 0 to 100 C and reflects the same numbers as chart above. The Industrial fan is the red line extending to 35C, the Phantecs T30 to 36C (above room temp). Horizontal is noise in dB Only two lines extend past 55 because only 2 fans make more noise, almost 70 dB at full speed. he he. 😲 The black line fan looks more reasonable ("Noctua NF-A12x25 c.b. "). But I have a small case with only room for one 120mm fan and went for a full tilt boogie model. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
July 23, 20223 yr 3000 RPM better strap your PC down and headphones, I use Noctua 140mm high performance case fans that can spin at 2000rpm but never do less than half that linked to the MB performance curve and they are silent. But if I manually override that at 2000rpm WOSH you can hear them. Raymond Fry.
