> 3 dayThe reviews were right, its big and it gets the job done. If you dont feel comfortable with water cooling or youre looking for a top tier cooler this is it. Noctua makes great fans too, the color doesnt bother me.

> 3 dayKeeps my 9900k @5ghz in the 60-70C range. It barely fits in my case, but I knew it would be tight when I bought it. Great to see these high end air coolers keeping pace with the AIO water cooling.

> 3 dayThis thing keeps my CPU ice cold, but more importantly, the adjustable-hehight second fan allowed me to install my Trident Z memory (which is notoriously tall) without issue. If youve got a big enough case, this thing will let you install even the tallest of memory sticks.

> 3 dayJust for the record I barely ever leave reviews, but this CPU cooler justifies it. I was having some serious issues after installing the 5800x (if you have one, you know exactly what I’m talking about).

> 3 daySo far the installation in a mid tower with mobo installed was tricky but the fan is cool and quiet as can be i just built a ryzen5 3600x build which idled at 55-65C before the cooler and now I can play modern warfare under heavy load with it sitting at 45-55C its a huge improvement and its amazingly quiet even with one fan installed

Greater than one weekI have it cooling my AMD FX9590 and I was able to reach a 5.2GHz OC stable. Super quiet and I dont have to worry about a water pump failing. Very satisfied.

> 3 dayVery quiet, very cool, very big. Nuff said. Check your case and motherboard for clearance first. I can confirm it works on an ASUS Z97-Pro within a Fractal Design R4.

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. |
