Noctua NH-D15, Premium CPU Cooler with 2X NF-A15 PWM 140mm Fans (Brown)

When I first received the unit , I was surprised at how big the the box was . What did they pack in here ? Upon opening I was shocked at how big the radiator is . It takes most of the open space up above the CPU ( i7 - 6700 in my case) . This thing looks very “steam punk” with the headers , radiators and attached fans . Clearly , when they designed this product, “size does matter” . The unit quality and packing is exceptional. All parts and even tools required for assembly are included. You don’t need to buy temperature conductive paste - they include that also. There was three glitches for me in the assembly/installation process that could be rectified with better docs . The instructions say to remove the protective cover from the radiator/ cpu contact surface . Is there one ? I hope not because I couldn’t find a cover ( unless the chrome patch of material is the cover ? ) . Also , the installation of the radiator on the mount was a little tricky to get it lined up and the threads started with the spring mounted screws . It took me 3 tries to get it right and smeared the conductive paste in the process . Finally , the wire fan clips are a little tricky to get back on if you’ve never done it . It also says the 2nd fan is optional? Why ? I was able to use both but the second fan had to be able installed slightly misaligned to avoid hitting my memory cards . Also a better explanation on how to orient the unit is definitely needed ( you can choice the orientation) . Once assembled, performance was excellent. My cpu runs at about 30 deg C at 4GHz . Noise level is practically silent . I would highly recommend this fan but I question the sheer size of the unit and documentation refinements are needed . But overall a very nice product experience especially for a cooling fan .

Wirklich ein toller Lüfter. Extrem leise, selbst bei geöffnetem Gehäuse hört man ihn nur leise (auch wenn man das Gehäuse im Betrieb natürlich geschlossen halten sollte). Überrascht war ich über den doch schweren und sehr großen Kühlkörper und über die wirklich guten Anleitungen die beiliegen. Für jeden passenden Sockel eine eigene Anleitung mit den entsprechenden Befestigungsmitteln. Ausgezeichnete Wärmeleitpaste ist auch dabei. Ein rundum-sorglos-Paket. Hier merkt man einfach, dass man richtig gute Qualität hat

Der Noctua NH-D15 kühlt meinen Intel I7-6700k mühelos ohne großartig etwas dafür zu tun. Während der Lüfter sich gerade einmal dreht hält er meine CPU bei etwa 37°C(bei einer Raumtemperatur von 21°C). Durch meine speziell eingestellte Lüfterkurve im BIOS erreicht der Lüfter auch nie die maximale Drehzahl, was er auch nicht nötig hat da er die CPU immer schön kalt hält.

I installed this on a Haswell I7-4790K and have absolutely no problems keeping it cool. It is on an ASUS Sabertooth Mark 1 motherboard and I was able to use both fans. I dont ever hear it.

Keeping my rig cool.

Easy to install as the instructions were detailed, clear and concise. Fans are quiet, but definitely cools down the CPU.

I upgraded from a Coolermaster V6 GT to this cooler to cool down my old trusty i7 870 with a moderate 4000 MHz overclock.

Noctua e garanzia di affidabilita. Ottimo prodotto!

Kühlt mein CPU unter voll last auf 60 grad passt grade so in mein gehäuse rein einfach zu installieren nur die lüfter auf sind etwas fummelig
