Tough customer (Arthur ref)
> 3 dayI bought this for the quietness i had the stock wraith prism on my ryzen 3700x it was loud and i got tired of hearingnit sound like a vacuum. This noctua is a beast way quieter it bearly cleared my gskill ripjaws 5 touches the glass but still fits. Caution when installing the fan to the side opposite of the ram it screeches a bit thats why i moved it back to ram side. Way better performance will soon overclock my cpu. The screws that mount the cooler to the cpu are tricky tighten one side a bit till it grabs then push down the cooler opposite screw and tighten a bit too if one side is too tight it wont screw in

> 3 dayI got this CPU cooler because I heard that it was a good one, and that it is. The fans were easy to install onto the dual towers and the overall mounting was very simple. It did take a fair amount of pressure to get the mounting screws started, but it is very secure. I cant say much about the thermal paste, it works great for me, no complaints. The black look is awesome and is much more aesthetically pleasing than the brown ones IMO.

> 3 dayThis company knocks it out of the park. Thought I would be good with the AMD stock cooler as it seemed pretty decent but the noise was unbearable. This thing is like almost completely soundless and it cools a lot better as well. Good investment. Will buy another of this brand in the future.

> 3 dayIts a beast. And BIG. Gigabyte Aorus Ultra Z690 board, Gskill trident rgb ram, 2 sticks, fan will not fit all the way down on the front part of cooler. Beware of this when sizing cases. Thermaltake Core 71 Case will accept this fan, millimeters space between glass side and fan top when mounted. Makes a little noise, maybe just a hair more than my Dark Rock Pro 4, keeps the i7-12700K cpu cool enough.
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. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fans and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. 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. |
