Noctua NA-SAVP1 chromax.Black, Anti-Vibration Pads for 120/140mm Noctua Fans (16-Pack, Black)

They work great, fit Noctua fans with ease, they just pop right on. I’ve been used to my case producing white noise for years but now with these things on new Noctua case fans, it’s absolutely silent. I found myself looking a few times to see if they were spinning. 100% worth the few extra minutes.

Noctua is definitely the best of the best in computer fans and accessories for the everyday consumer and industrial consumer. I chose the Chromax as black to match my grey fans. They come with 16 which can fit for a max of 4 fans IF you do not put 8 on each fan. You’d only need to put these pads on one side depending if your fan will be used as either intake or exhaust. It’s worth the money and help reducing micro-vibrations (which can wear your fans without the pads)

So many reviews will complain that these should come with the fan, and noctua is nickel and diming you by selling a "cheaper fan" but up-charging you for the accessories you really need for the fan. Let's be honest too, if you are buying noctua fans it isn't because you are putting them in a media pc you want to use for watching you tube. They are going to go in a gaming pc more than likely, and you WILL want these anti vibration pads to keep noise down.That said... this pad set will cover all 8 corners of two fans, and you can get two redux 120 mm fans for about 14 dollars right now. So you are looking at basically 17.50 a fan.... for 120 mm noctuas with anti vibration pads on all 8 corners. So that 35 bucks for two fans, a little less of you are okay with only using vibration pads on the sides that technically need it instead of all 8 corners.Meanwhile your top of the line corsair fans with no rgb will still cost you about 38 dollars a set depending on model, or 28 per fan if you get their 2000 rpm fan. Noctua's 2000 rpm fan which comes with pads (even if they are brown) costs 22.50 right now.So in the end, no, noctua is not ripping you off. You have to jump through some extra hoops, but you are still getting a top of the line cooling fan (if not the best fan on the market), with anti vibration pads, at a price that is equal or better than other providers. Technically it is even better because you have some say in the color of your pads, so if you care about custom color themes it is sort of a step up.If having pads in the box are that huge a deal, just step up to their 2000 + rpm industrial fans, or pay 23 bucks per (as of this review) and get noctuas premium fans that come with every color variant of each pad, a modular 4 pin cable, are black not grey or brown, and have black screws.Just bear in mind those premium fans only come in 1500 rpm (at least on amazon), so if you want something stronger or weaker no dice.Me? I am happy with my grey 1700 rpm redux's with black pads at 17.50 a pop.

I bought these for my Noctua NF-P12 redux-1700 PWM fans. Let's face it: we love Noctua for their product's performance, not looks or price. That being said, my fans look pretty good with these corners on them. However, I was originally thinking I would mount these on the backs of the fans for their anti-vibration capabilities. Now I want them on both sides of my fans. A buck or two per fan seems reasonable for the add-on. But, I have four fans, so I need two packages of these (four corners x two sides x four fans = 32). This now works out to three or four bucks per fan which is less of a value proposition for me. Would it really hurt Noctua that much to include enough for four fans on both sides? But again, I love Noctua products for their performance, not looks or price, so I can not knock off a star for this.As for the packaging, the box is excessive for the amount of product in them. Strangely, there was a sheet of neoprene rubber in the box to protect this not-at-all fragile product. I needed exactly that material to reduce the vibrations of my non-Noctua pump. (Please make ultra quiet D5 pumps, please, please) So, by coincidence, I am happy with the packaging and can not knock a star off for its excessive packaging. But it does irk me as the entire rationale for the Redux line of products is to reduce cost by eliminating unnecessary accessories.Noctua, if you are reading this, you should reduce or eliminate the box, eliminate the neoprene, and either increase the number of corners included or reduce the price. I am normally 100% satisfied with my Noctua purchases. For the above reasons I am only 90% satisfied. One fewer percentage point and I would have had to leave my first non-five star review for one of your products.

This product works great to dampen any residual vibrations. However if your fans are correctly attached/mounted this product isn't quite necessary. However it totally allows a user to round out the color scheme which is still worth while.The NA-SAVP1 chromax.black is a fan accessory set consisting of 16 black NA-AVP1 anti-vibration pads for up to 2 compatible 120/140mm fans (see compatibility info). Made from extra-soft silicone, the NA-AVP1 pads minimise the transmission of minute vibrations while maintaining full compatibility with standard fan screws and most other mounting systems. At the same time, the chromax.black edition is ideal for creating all-black builds with Noctua’s chromax & industrialPPC fans.Vibration dampening for lower noise emissionFans can transmit minute vibrations to the PC case, CPU cooler, water-cooling radiator or other devices they’re installed in, which can lead to annoying resonance noises. The NA-AVP1 pads can help to reduce the transmission of structure-borne noises and thus lower your PC’s overall noise level.Warranty: 6 Years

These pads mute all the vibration noises. I have two other brand fans on the front of my computer that have pads and I can slightly hear their vibrations. I cannot hear the vibrations on these at all. The reason I gave it 4 out of 5 is due to the fact that these are sold separately from the fan itself. There is no reason that they should be separate from the fans.

Helped me get the colors of my fan and setup matching. I had to replace that brown the fan I bought came with.
