I've just wrapped up testing with the best new PC fan I've used in a long time: Noctua's NF-A12x25 G2

A set of Noctua NF-A12x25 G2 PC fans on a desk with packaging.

After years of waiting for Noctua's greatest PC fan, we finally got our hands on it at the end of last year. Then, Noctua had to go and make us wait even longer for the 120 mm version, the NF-A12x25 G2 PWM. But not to worry, this long-awaited fan is now available. I've since put it through its paces and, unsurprisingly for the famous cooling company, it's superb.

As mentioned, this is a 120 mm fan, which serves to complement the already available NF-A14x25 G2. It spins up to 1800 RPM, which is a little on the low side compared to some of the best PC fans today, but as my testing shows that's not really something to worry about. If anything, it might be a benefit. That's because this fan manages to maintain some of, if not the highest airflow measured by my anemometer, well, ever.
