    Noctua lives up to the hype. It is quiet, it is cool , it is well packaged.

    Siempre mantiene mi cpu debajo de los 50°C, excelente construcción y super facil de instalar y el bonus de que sea completamente negro

    Setting the motherboard up for the mounting of this cooler was incredibly simple and easy to do, it is best to do it out of your case, but even if its in the case, having it on its side will make it pretty easy. The fan is very quiet and even at 70% is barely audible compared the 3 Phanteks fans I have that came with my P400A, I plan on eventually swapping those to their new NF-A12x25 Chromax.

    Awesome Air Cooler. Easy to install on an AM4 board. Replaced Wraith Prism Cooler on my 7 2700X because I wasnt happy with the constant sound of the Fan ramping up if Im honest. Also I figured the Noctua would be a better thermal solution overall.

    My LGA 1150 motherboard/ i7 4ghz processor are now running cooler thanks to this thing. Fan comes off easy to install the heatsink and then clips right back on afterwards. Careful taking it out of the box because the plastic cover over the base of the heat sink isnt attached to anything.

    Lowered my CPU temp down to 79° 80° at high load on a 3900 X CPU

    As some others have said in different reviews, I have an AMD Ryzen 3800x that was running the in-box cooler that came with the CPU. After upgrading to this cooler, the Furmark CPU Burn test brings the CPU to around 70 Celsius and hovers around there. Running the same CPU Burn on the original cooler was getting the CPU into the 85 Celsius range.

    This cooler is very quiet and only gets loud when it is 100% ramped up. But this thing is so good that I’ve never heard it without really listening unless I was running a cinebench benchmark. Getting it installed was also fairly easy, comes with thermal paste in the box (not pre-applied) and even gives instructions on how to do the thermal paste. Great instructions on mounting as well.

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 compatibility

Standing 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 compatibility

Thanks 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 fan

Recommended 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-customisable

Using 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.
