He says it's completely safe but reading failures can happen and are more catastrophic than just a fan dying gives me anxiety.

I have the NH-D15s and several Noctua case fans, and my 5800X stays nice and frosty, and it's so quiet that when I picked it up from Memory Express after a PSU failure, the girl behind the desk wasn't sure she had turned it on. "Oh my god, is that as loud as it gets? Hey [other person], come check out how quiet this thing is!"
Noctua for the win man.
