Greater than one weekThis is a huge heatsync. Its the biggest one I have ever seen. Be prepared for the space with your case. That said, its amazing. It comes with 2 fans (1 is optional if you need the room for ram or what have you) and all the tools you will need to install it. Thermal paste, even a screwdriver is in this case. The ease of install is almost worth the price, but the product itself has been designed and packaged with great care and concern for the client and it shows! I love the screwdriver that comes with it, it is long and will last, its not cheap. I used it to screw all the screws into a new build I was making because it was just so convenient to reach everything with. I love this thing and I love the accessories that came with it. It also runs silently so dont expect a lot of rattle and shaking with this!

> 3 dayGot this one inside my full Tower Case. Really decent cooler, worth money. As good as my previous water cooler if not better. I dont know why ppl say its hard to install. This one is actually the easiest cpu cooler you can imagine. Very quiet on load, decent temps.

> 3 dayGreat cooler. I havent done an extensive overclock on my r7 2700x but so far Ive gotten further with my oc using this. I went up to 42.5 with ease from 40.0 I didnt add adjust the voltage from where I have it at though but I do know that before this NH-15D anything other 40.0 at the voltage I have set wouldnt be possible. I just need to either get a bigger case or get a Noctua 120mm fan. My ram is a little too high with the rgb on it and I cant close my case so Im going to change one of the fans first to see if that helps. All in all this is a great cooling system and I dont hear the fans enough to pay attention to the sound because they are very quiet..

> 3 dayThese coolers are worth every penny. Have 4 running on render boxes and idle temps dropped 15C over $30 cooler and load temps dropped 20 to 25C. Quiet, solid install. Highly recommended.

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. |
