    The perfect CPU cooler. Extremely quiet, looks amazing in black, high quality materials, and very easy to install (with all needed supplies to install for all modern cpus). Extremely satisfied, would recommend.

    I bought this after getting rid of my cooler master 240mm AIO, that thing started to get really loud and annoying.

    Brought this for a Ryzen 5 3600. Out of the box I was surprised by the quality and accessories that came with it. Extremely easy setup, didnt even need to remove my motherboard, GPU, or remove anything from my case, except my stock cooling fan. And you really see how good this cooler is when temps start to rise because it keeps the CPU cool with very little noise. Best cooler Ive purchased so far.

    Noctua una garanzia, dal montaggio alle prestazioni finali. Molto silenzioso e temperature molto basse, montato su x570 Aorus Elite per raffreddare una 3700x, non ingombra nessuno dei 4 slot ram

    Bought to use with a Ryzen 5 3600. It works like a champ. Far quieter and far better cooling performance than a stock AMD fan.

    lo ho comperato per raffreddare il mio i9 11900 che sembrava poter funzionare con il dissipatore di serie. Il dissipatore di serie funziona bene se il processore è a riposo o funziona in bassa frequenza. Ho provato a mettere sotto stress il processore e le temperature erano troppo alte per per il dissipatore di serie. Ho ordinato il Noctua e ho portato a valori eccellenti il processore, se ci fosse stato nel case avrei installato anche il modello maggiore ma anche il 12 funziona molto bene. Adesso il processore rende mediamente in calcolo come volevo tenendo una frequenza di 4.8GHz, forse con il dissipatore maggiore avrebbe tenuto frequenze maggiori ma quello che raggiunge fa veramente faville per non lodarlo.

    Super verarbeitet, Kühlleistung für meinen Intel Prozessor mehr als ausreichend. Wärmeleitpaste schon vor aufgetragen. Perfekt für All Black Build. Auf höchster Drehzahl dezente Geräuschentwicklung, trotzdem noch leise.

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.
