> 3 daySo much better than the stock cooler which Ive been using for more than 5 years on my Core i5 4690K. Huge improvements in areas such as cooling, noise and ease of installation.

> 3 dayI switched from a stock Intel cooler to this Noctua NH-U12S. My idle temperatures were immediately down by 10 degrees. Under a full load, the impact was even greater with temperatures dropping by 16 degrees.

> 3 dayLho preso per un eventuale upgrade del processore ryzen un 3600 o un 3700x il mio timore era che non entrasse nel mio case azza inferno 310 dove il produttore dichiarava che laltezza massima del dissipatore poteva essere 155cm ma io ho misurato e cerano 160mm giusti e allora ho deciso di tentare e per fortuna mi è andata bene inutile dirvi che il dissipatore è bellissimo è silenzioso certo è che il prezzo è caro ma ha prestazioni quasi di un dissipatore a liquido quindi è giusto che la qualità si paghi, il pacco è arrivato nei tempi stabiliti nonostante la situazione ma il dissipatore è arrivato nudo è crudo nella sua confezione quindi nessuna protezione da urti possibile dei corrieri che vanno sempre di fretta ma per fortuna lho ricevuto integro quindi grazie al corriere ad amazon e noctua stessa.

> 3 dayDissipatore mastodontico (valutate bene gli spazi disponibili nel CASE) silenziosissimo e molto efficiente.

> 3 dayFirst off, I like to congratulate Noctua for embracing aesthetics improvements to their coolers. With matt black finish and black fan designs, I am certain that it will be one of the most popular air coolers. And with Noctuas credibility in the air cooler scene, buyers can be sure of the cooling potential.

> 3 dayThis thing is basically completely silent. Amazing little cooler. I actually ahd to take it on and off several times due to my motherboard needing a firmware update, so I had to swap back to an older CPU temporarily. Its super easy to mount/dismount as needed.

> 3 dayThis thing is way better than the stock Ryzen Wraith Prism. It lowered the temps of my 3800x by double digits and the fan is way quieter.
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. |
