HWC puzzle (2022): Can you guess what’s in the photo?

Remember the series of picture puzzles from a few years ago? We’ll come back to them a little bit, or rather to their format. This time, however, it will not be anything regular, but a one-off event where one of the solvers will be rewarded with two Noctua NF-A12x25 LS-PWM fans. And why these? You’ll soon find out… but you may have already guessed, if you were able to identify which fan the detail in the photo at the head of the article belongs to.

It’s simple. The cover photo of this article shows part of a fan and we want to know what fan that is. The model range will suffice, as (and we’ll help you out a bit now) this fan exists in different speed variants and has even had multiple brands alternated on it. There are therefore multiple product designations that would match the cutout in the macro photo.

You can send us messages with your guesses to in**@*******ng.net with the subject HWC puzzle (2022) until 13 September 2022. We will then draw one of the correct answers and reward them with a pair of new Noctua NF-A12x25 LS-PWM fans.

You can enter from anywhere, we don’t use any geographical restrictions and we will send the Noctua fans listed to one lucky winner wherever necessary. The winner will be announced at the end of the fan test, which will be released on HWCooling.net on 9/15/2022. So take a good look at the photo above and let us know what this iconic 😉 piece of work is called.
