> 3 dayThe version I got was NOT compatible with LGA1700 motherboards. The backplate does not fit in the least. I love Noctua fans and heat sinks and have used them for years. Bit this description is false, suggesting that it works with LGA1700. Or I got a bad one.

Greater than one weekho un processore amd fx 9370... una dei processori più bollenti che possano esistere in questo universo... dico solo che sono passato da un raffreddamento a liquido a doppia ventola a questo dissipatore ad aria... non ci potevo credere che tra benchmark ed altro, questo dissipatore aveva linciato oltre 12-15 gradi, e siamo in estate... da 75-80 gradi a liquido a massimo 66 ad aria... fantastico... fatto tutto divinamente tra materiali plastici (ventole) e dissipatore.... sono fermamente convinto che possa battere la maggior parte dei dissipatori che ci sono in commercio tra aria e liquido... ovviamente parlo anche di temperature da record in overclock :).....

> 3 dayAs this box didnt have the LGA1700 mounting bracket (older stock), I had to contact Noctua directly. I was shocked when the bracket arrived within 3 days from Europe. Great company, these air coolers are rock solid: I have an older model in another computer I built 11 years ago, that cooler is still going strong.

> 3 dayThis is a great cooler. Only issue I have found is installing memory can be tricky after cooler has been installed. A little tight on an atx board.

> 3 dayThe fan is too wide for this motherboard and covers up the 1st PCIex16 slot. The 1st slot runs at x16 PCIe3.0 speeds and the preferred slot for a single GPU. My only choice now is to put the GPU in the 2nd PCIex16 slot which only runs at x8 PCIe3.0 speeds.
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. |
