Noctua NF-P14s redux-1200 PWM 140mm Fan Review

Performance – Max & Speed Percentage

Max RPM, CFM, Pressure & Power

The maximum speed is low, not allowing for competitive performance at both airflow and static pressure.

10 – 100% Fan Speed Percentage

Since most fan control ICs don’t apply precisely the percentage of RPM speed that you want (e.g., 50% PWM for a 2000 RPM fan should be 1000 RPM), I used to find the fan’s maximum speed and then dial directly the fan speeds that corresponded to 10%, 20%, and so on of its maximum rated speed. I decided to stop doing that. So from now on, in all of my fan evaluations, I will dial the corresponding PWM value in 10% steps to also check how accurate its fan controller is, and for my noise results to align with the airflow and static pressure results from the Longwin apparatus, where I don’t use RPM but PWM control for all testing.
