New Noctua Fan Available For PS2

Published on 18 February 2025 at 17:33

It seems that a missed this late last year, but apparently Noctua have released a new 60mm fan. This is significant because it will fit in the FAT ps2s without having to 3d print a whole new back panel, you instead just need to print a mount for inside the case. I have personally never been a fan(no pun intended) of fan mods in general. But if I was to consider one, this would be on the radar for sure

There are a few different versions of this new fan, some of them being 12v and the others 5v. The consensus seems to be that a 12v is required for adequate airflow for the PS2. Also, additional circuitry is required to run the fan. It would be good if someone made a kit with the additional circuitry and the 3d printed mounting bracket, but that does not seem to have happened as of the time of writing this.
