Greater than one weekAwesome while I had it in my system. Quite and keeps the CPU fairly cool. (Ryzen 3900x). Only issue i had was when trying to take it out to swap with a AIO..... somehow the cpu was stuck to it even though it was locked down. No damage done but it was on there.

> 3 dayIn my microATX case this fan fit just perfectly with about 5mm of headroom. Wow does this thing work perfectly. Packaging comes with all needed hardware for intel or AMD boards, nicely packaged and easy as pie to install. It keeps my 95W TDP 3600X chilly cold, never going past 65C under load. Whisper quiet. I would recommend this to anyone looking for air cooling for their more compact builds.

> 3 dayDissipatore elegante, silenzioso e affidabile.. la Noctua a mio avviso produce i migliori dissipatori ad aria sul mercato, giusto spendere qualcosina in più per avere poi una qualità superiore

> 3 dayMe costo algo instlarlo debido a mi inexperiencia, pero lo recomiendo. La temperatura bajo 30 grados aprox a diferencia del cpu de stock que tenia mi ryzen 5600x, lo recomiendo usar junto con otro ventilador para la salida del aire.

> 3 dayI recently bought a new Ryzen cpu and need a better cooler than the spire that came with, this was my choice and I definitely do not regret it. The fan is super quiet even while my pc is under load, the instal was very easy and it fits well even in my micro tax case. My temperatures are really great under load with a slight over clock, hovering around the 60 while under near max load. If you are getting a step up from the spire I highly recommend this cooler!
The NH-U12S chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s NH-U12S premium-quality quiet CPU cooler. Thanks to the same proven slim-tower heatsink design and NF-F12 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-U12S’s successful formula of fusing excellent cooling performance with superb quietness of operation and outstanding RAM, case and PCIe compatibility. At the same time, the chromax.black version with its black fan and black coated heatsink combines these assets with a sleek stealth look. Topped off with the renowned SecuFirm2 multi-socket mounting system and Noctua’s enthusiast-grade NT-H1 thermal compound, the NH-U12S chromax.black is a premium choice for customers who seek a highly compatible 120mm heatsink that looks just as great as it cools.

Classic 120mm tower size for excellent case and PCIe compatibilityStanding 158mm tall, the NH-U12S is short enough to fit most modern mid- or high-end tower cases. Measuring 125mm wide (including fan and fan clips), the cooler stays clear of the top PCIe slot on most standard ATX or Micro-ATX motherboards, ensuring optimum compatibility with multi-GPU setups. |
100% RAM compatibilityThanks to its slim design with only 45mm fin depth, the NH-U12S will not overhang the RAM slots even with two fans installed. This gives the user full access to the memory modules on all current CPU sockets and ensures 100% compatibility with tall heatspreaders or optional memory fans. |
NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow fanRecommended by more than 150 hardware publications and thousands of enthusiasts worldwide, the Noctua’s premium-quality NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan is renowned for combining superb static pressure, excellent heatsink performance and surprising quietness of operation. |
Colour-customisableUsing the optional NA-HC1 and NA-HC2 heatsink covers as well as the NA-SAVP1 anti-vibration pads (available in black, blue, green, red, yellow, white), the NH-U12S chromax.black can be fully customised to fit popular build colour schemes such as black and red or black and white. |
