Normalized Noise Tests
For these tests, I set the fan to speeds with noise output at the following predefined levels: 20/25/30/35/40/45 dBA. I skip the corresponding tests if the fan under the test cannot reach some noise levels.
20 dBA Noise Output
25 dBA Noise Output
30 dBA Noise Output
In all normalized noise tests, the Noctua fan scores second behind the T30-120, which achieves strong performance in all speed regions. The difference in static pressure wides at 30 dBA, while the difference in airflow is notable in all three tests.

Could you test Be Quiet Silent Wings PRO 4? Most review mentioned that it is better than NF-A12x25 and it is 25mm thick as well.
I will ask from be quiet! to send them over!
Please test silverstone’s shark force fans, their performance is ridiculously good for their size, thickness and rpm but reviews are limited and I cant find any noise to performance ratings like ur extensive testing covers. I have verified from 2 or 3 reviews that the max cfm and static pressure ratings are accurate tho, in terms of raw performance they are very good.
Will ask for them, sure!
Oh nice, thanks!
My pleasure 🙂
