> 3 dayBought as part of my general computer upgrade, I love how quietly it runs, even under load. The loudest component of my computer is now definitely not the largest.

Greater than one weekComing from a Cryorig I dont know why I waited so long to buy this. My Cryo wasnt cooling my 4790k well enough. I was getting constant over heating issues and crashes. Hoping it was just a thermal issue and not wanting to go back to liquid AIO because of failures, I figured Id try the best of the best in air cooling. I am more than satisfied this with. My 4790k 1.25v temps never go past 60c at heavy load. This is the best news considering I was hitting 100c and failure on my Cryorig H7. Dead silent operation on top of all that. After using this I wouldnt buy any other air cooler or liquid cooler. I honestly think this is perfect all around. Zero risk with water damage and all the reward of lower temps.

> 3 dayWorks well and runs quietly, the hottest my i7 7700k got was around 70 degrees so thats pretty good. One thing I would do is to connect the fan splitter and the count 8 pin before installing

Greater than one weekThis thing is awesome. Pretty easy to install but a little nerve racking putting pressure down on a $400 Processor while tightening. All worked out though. Be sure to double check the space in your case because this thing is huge. Cleared my sons case by about half an inch. For the size of this thing it’s surprisingly quiet. And has a quiet mode as well. Great deal and has my sons computer screaming fast. Would buy again.

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. |
