> 24 hourSo, this cooler seems to work well with the ASUS ROG Strix Z690-E Gaming WiFi and a 12700K BUT there is a big issue with it. Turned 90 degrees it will mounth but the heat pipes protrude too much towards the ram slots and push in the first module putting stress on the both the module and the slot. Need to find something else that will work just as well. Its a shame. I really wanted it to work.

> 24 hourSi quiero poner el segundo ventilador que viene, no es posible porque se estrella con la memoria RAM, y si se levanta un poco para que se pueda instalar luego mi PC no cierra.

> 24 hourHad a Hyper 212 Black cooler, with two Arctic P12 fans attached, for my Ryzen 5 3600; temperature went up to 85 degrees Celsius during renders, nearly 90 in Prime95 (stock settings, PBO enabled).

> 24 hourAfter struggling with my water cooling system and hours of trying to get the CPU to stop overheating, I ordered the Noctua NH-D15. It solved all my problems in less than 25 min - could take even less if you know what you are doing. But I am complete noob.

> 24 hourDid you come here expecting a bad review? I mean, its Noctua... just now in black, which is awesome by the way. Cooler itself is a beast, and fits my blacked out mother board and ram (which you cant see anyway , theres 4 8GB sticks back there, lol).

> 24 hourWorking great. My idle temps are slightly higher than when I was running an AIO (by about 5c) but my load temps are averaging 65c (5c lower than my old load temps).
The NH-D15 chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning flagship model NH-D15 premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven dual-tower heatsink design and NF-A15 PWM fans, it stays true to the NH-D15’s successful formula of rivalling the performance of all-in-one water coolers while maintaining superb quietness of operation.

Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 chromax.black is a deluxe choice for both overclockers and silent enthusiasts who seek an elite-class heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

6 heatpipe dual-tower designAs compared to conventional single tower heatsinks, the NH-D15’s fine-tuned six heatpipe dual-tower design provides more surface area, better heat-distribution and superior airflow efficiency in dual-fan mode. |
Dual NF-A15 140mm fansThe NH-D15 features two of Noctua"s premium-class NF-A15 140mm fans. Complying with Noctua"s AAO standard and featuring sophisticated aerodynamic design measures such as Flow Acceleration Channels, the NF-A15 has quickly built up a reputation as one of the best 140mm fans on the market. |
High RAM compatibility in single fan modeThanks to its recessed lower fins, the NH-D15 provides 64mm clearance for tall memory heatsinks in single fan mode, making it compatible with most high-end RAM modules on the market. In dual-fan mode, the NH-D15 should be used with standard-height RAM (up to 32mm). |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC3 and NA-HC4 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP3 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-D15 chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
