> 3 dayOver the years Ive leaned back and forth between AIO coolers and traditional air flow rads like the Noctua NH-D15.

> 3 dayItem does not contain mounting kit for LGA1700, despite it being advertised as so in product description. I may have just been unlucky or this may be every product. I would recommend buying from a PC specialist store instead.

> 3 dayI love this massive sized cooler for my intel 8700k. It keeps my cpu at perfect temperatures no matter what I throw at it and it stays whisper quiet.

> 3 dayI have mine coupled to a 10850k, and it was easy to install, works well, quiet, etc and it keeps the CPU as cool as most things will (its a hot CPU, not Noctuas fault), however I wont have a problem with a dead AIO in 3 or 4 years or possibly leaking on my stuff.

> 3 dayQuieter than expected on fx-8320 cpu. A little large, but careful consideration of the space required for this heatsink along with the space available in your case should avoid any surprise size issues.

Greater than one weekThe product is good and reduces the temperature. But sound will be there but much less than the stock cooler. There was some scratches on the connection plate of the noctua. I only noticed this when I wanted to replace the nvme on my prime x470. The nvme is also from apario but its in good condition. Now there is no way to resolve this issue for me as I am past the initial Amazon days.

Greater than one weekVery easy to install considering its size. Well packaged and documented. Amazing performance, IMO the best air cooler on the market. Noctua emailed me directly with invoices and support instructions, I was quite impressed.

> 3 dayLove the style of this cpu cooler makes my build look like a muscle car. Only major complain is the size its huge and a pain to put on and still interferes with ram space. But it works better than liquid cooling and the fans are awesome quiet, powerful, and amazing quality. I just hope they fix the space issue and the mounting on cpu is a pain to screw it in. But performance wise its awesome.

Built on the basis of the legendary NH-D14 and carrying on its quest for ultimate quiet cooling performance, Noctua’s flagship model NH-D15 is an elite-class dual tower cooler for the highest demands. Its expanded heatpipe layout and two premium grade NF-A15 140mm fans with PWM support for automatic speed control allow it to further improve the NH-D14’s award-winning efficiency. Topped off with the trusted, pro-grade SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s proven NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-D15 forms a complete premium quality solution that represents a deluxe choice for overclockers and silent-enthusiasts alike.

Widened fin stack and expanded heatpipe layoutCompared to the NH-D14, the NH-D15"s fin-stack has been widened from 140 to 150mm and its heatpipes are now spaced further apart, which allows for a more uniform heat distribution over a larger surface area and thus contributes to the NH-D15"s superior efficiency. |
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). In chassis with more than 165mm CPU cooler clearance, the front fan can be moved upwards to make room for memory modules taller than 32mm. |
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. |
NT-H1 thermal compoundNoctua"s much-acclaimed NT-H1 is a well proven pro-grade TIM solution that provides minimum thermal resistance, excellent ease-of-use and outstanding reliability, which makes it suitable for use in professional server and workstation environments. |
