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

Let me begin by stating that this CPU cooler is massive. It covers up about 45% of my motherboard. Make sure before purchasing that your RAM is compatible with this behemoth of a cooler. Luckily, Noctua thought of this problem ahead of time and have allowed for the ability of changing where one may mount the fans on the heat sink. Just make sure that your RAM wont interfere with it at all. Also, some people, although I have never encountered it, have been able to place there side panel back on due to the sheer size of the cooler. You can make sure by checking the maximum size for your case. When you begin assembling, I can not stress enough to make sure you connect your CPU fans to the pins before you screw the heat sink down. When I was attempting to connect the CPU fans to the pins after I had screwed the cooler down it proved to be impossible and had to unscrew it. One question I constantly see all over the internet pertains to the weight of the cooler. Many people are scared due to the size and weight, they fear that it may break or bend the motherboard. In extreme instances it may, depending on the thickness of the board, and if one constantly moves their computer around. If you plan on moving your computer a lot. Make sure you take the cooler off, sudden shakes or constant vibration can actually cause the board to break. However, if you are going to keep the computer stationary, the motherboard wont break due to the cooler. Noctua has a very good mounting system so you dont need to fear it. The only real complaint I have about this cooler is the cooler of the fans. Noctua really loves their brown fans and thats what the cooler comes with. It can really look unappealing but you can fix this by just buying their black fans. But temperatures for this cooler are amazing. I have a 9700k overclocked to 5ghz and will get around 25-30 degrees idle and a max of 60 degrees while under load. I may have just won the silicon lottery but I would like to think that the cooler is doing its job. In summary, make sure this cooler isnt too big for you. Do research pertaining your parts just to be sure. If everything fits well, then go for it! This cooler is an absolute beast and will keep your CPU extremely cool!

Super disappointed that it couldn’t cool my processor. Super hard to mount. Was way overhyped, wish I could still get my refund.

Its silence, its big, its performace its Noctua DH 15

I would highly recommend this product, currently using it with my 12700k an could not have been more satisfied.

Impresionante!. Tengo un i7 7700K. Con una refrigeración liquida de 120mm push&pull se ponía a 80-90ºC (sin turbo: 4200mHz) a tope ventiladores y bomba. Con este disipador de Noctua consigo quedarme en 50-60ºC. (con turbo: 4500mHz). Encima es que no se oyen prácticamente los ventiladores

Boom and quiet and cool

Questo dissipatore è enorme, e questo permette al pc di essere silenzioso anche sotto carichi di gaming prolungati.

冷却性能は申し分ありませんが、

Acquistato per essere montato su un i7-5820k, accompagnato dal case Cooler Master Mastercase Pro 5, che può alloggiare dissipatori alti fino a 190mm. Le temperature della CPU in idle si aggirano intorno ai 35°, e oggi faccio partire un test in full load per vedere come se la cava, ma non mi aspetto sorprese. Montaggio semplicissimo.

Avevo un sistema di raffreddamento a liquido della thermaltake che comportava ogni tanto un minimo di manutenzione dovuta al rabbocco del serbatoio.
