> 3 dayUse a push pull system, make sure the push has the larger rubber offsets to give abit of space between the fan and the radiator. Super quiet, nice low temps on my 5900x.

> 3 dayI was between this and the NHU-12A. The price difference didnt justify the moderate increase Im performance Id expect.

Greater than one weekReduce en promedio unos 20° C la temperatura normal de un R5 5600x vs el disipador estándar de AMD. Buen diseño.

> 3 dayDissipatore ottimo con il cavo per la riduzione del rumore incluso il suono e pari a zero. Senza invece un po rumoroso. Raffreddamento eccezionale. Parecchio grosso non adatto a tutti i case

> 3 dayYou cant go wrong with a Noctua product, great for a first time builder, low noise, hardware to add another fan. A good pick if you wanna do a little over clocking but nothing too crazy.

Greater than one weekAvevo temperature sempre o quasi intorno a 90° con il dissipatore intel di serie con cpu I7 12700F in full game ,per non parlare del rumore molto ma molto fastidioso.

> 3 dayI just got my 2nd one for another build. Best coolers on the market. Water cooling is overrated. I take one of these any day over water cooling. Its just works. Simple to install. Amazing build quality. Worth the extra money over the competition. Altho bequiet brand coolers coming in a close 2nd

> 3 dayEs bastante compacto y al tacto se nota de mucha calidad.el ventilador apenas se escucha ni puesto al 100%. Bajó la temperatura de mi ryzen 5 3600 de 88° jugando (cooler stock)y sin tenerlo en modo turbo...solo a 3600mhz a 65° de pico maximo con temperatura ambiente de 27° y con modo turbo activado a 4200mhz. Me encanta el diseño en negro y no toca los modulos ram que para mi es un puntazo. Hay que tener cuidado y mano firme a la hora de atornillarlo ya que los muelles son duros y hay que hacer bastante presión.
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. |
