    For 3D printers, they’re subpar.

    Noctua fans are typically 12v and tuned for lower speed for lower noise; in 3DP you’re generally looking for 24v fans* with the highest CFM:static pressure ratio you can get which will generally mean a louder, higher RPM fan.

    They’ll work, but you can generally get industrial fans from Delta, Sunon, etc that are a better fit for the application, often for less money.

    * - 5v and 12v fans are getting more common simply because they tend to be more available. Preference for high CFM:static pressure holds true regardless.
