Greater than one weekKept my i9-9900k at around 58 degrees under load and at around 32 degrees Idle (Celsius). Didn’t come with a lot of thermal paste but I was able to use enough for my pc and a friends’!

> 3 daySuper Produkt. Wollte eigentlich zuerst das Konkurrenzprodukt von DeepCool ( GamerStorm ) bestellen, aber der soll ja bei maximaler Kühlleistung dann auch recht laut sein. Daher habe ich mich sicherheitshalber für Noctua entschieden und muss sagen absolut richtige Wahl. CPU (Core i7 9800X) im Idle ( bei 28 Grad Celsius) und unter Prime95 max. 70 Grad Celsius. Vorher hatte ich eine Wasserkühlung diese war zwar für die CPU ganz ok ( aber dennoch schlechter (32 Grad Idle) als der Noctua , aber dadurch dass die Umgebung der CPU nicht mit gekühlt werden konnte hatte ich teilweise eine Systemtemparatur von bis 40 Grad Celsius.

> 3 dayVerpackung ist sehr premium - wie man von Noctua erwartet. Auch auf kleine Dinge (wie z.B. die Lüfterklammern sind so designed, dass sie nicht abfallen, wenn man den Lüfter entfernt.

> 3 dayCouldn’t screw it on without feeling like it’d snap my mobo. One side would take. The other wouldn’t. I was using the proper brackets.

> 3 dayAbsolutely amazing thermals on a 4.8Ghz overclocked i5 6600k, changed over from a 120mm CLC. Added benefit of increasing case circulation which allowed for higher memory overclock alongside super quiet and cool CPU performance.

> 3 dayThis thing is huge. Construction is superb and very high quailty. Noctua makes some very nice products. This cooler fits in my Thermaltake Cube V21 nicely. I am running a Ryzen 5 2400G OC 4Ghz at 1.380v limit, ASUS TUF B450m-plus gaming. Using Prime95 my voltages stay about 1.340 at 4Ghz. CPU temp doesnt go above 54°C. I have my fan speed profile customized to my liking.

Greater than one weekThis is a well designed and well built product. I have done builds with highly reviewed fans that turned out to be hard to install. This one was a pleasure to work with. In this case, you get what you pay for.

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. |
