    Il montaggio non è dei più semplici ma le istruzioni sono dettagliate e i serraggi validi. Le viti si fissano bene e il risultato finale risulta molto solido.

    Al principio puede impactar por su tamaño, especialmente en cajas de formato mid-tower. Pero esa sensación desaparece al momento cuando ves lo elegante que queda y lo increíblemente silencioso que es. Encima en mi caso le añadí otro NF-S12A por pura estética, y es que ni aun así molesta el ruido para nada, es super silencioso.

    This cooler has been a gift from the gods to my i9 11900f. Even under high loads this keeps the 8 core 16 thread space heater super cool while remaining nice a quiet. Its heat absorption and dissipation has even lowered my overall case temps causing my GPU to also run cooler.

    I recently upgraded my motherboard and got a new case. Looks great in the H510 Flow and keeps my 5600x cold. Thermals are great and and the cooler is silent during load

    Wie immer bei Noctua ein tolles Produkt. Ich würde noch einen zusätzlichen Lüfter empfehlen, um die Geräuschkulisse noch niedriger zu halten als sie es eh schon ist. Die schwarze Farbe des Kühlers sorgt für einen richtig edlen Look, der meiner Meinung nach eine gute Verbesserung gegenüber dem Vorgänger ist. Fühlt sich sehr wertig an. Gute und einfache Installation. Der beigelegte Schraubenzieher blätterte bei mir ein bisschen ab.

    I previously owned a Corsair H100iv2 CPU liquid cooler with idle temps of 19-25C, under max load 45C, 2hr stress test 52C. With the Noctua NH-U125 that I currently have installed 28-31C idle temps, under max load 50C, 2hr stress test 65C. At Noctua $94.95(CAD) vs Corsair $124.99(CAD) you get what you pay for. The price seems fair for its performance. Honestly, if you can expense a water cooler and trust having one in your build then Id just go for it. If not, then this definitely would not be a bad start for an CPU air cooler.

    A compat cooler design that is easy to install. The black color looks nice in my case, but the cooler is a little on the expensive side.

    The fan that was ordered was not the fan that arrived in the box, the box was correct but the components inside the box was replaced by cheap components

    Ich bin so glücklich mit diesem Kauf hatte davor eine Msi Maq Coreliqid 240r die ja dann zurück genommen wurde nur hab ich das zu spät erfahren und keiner konnte mir etwas erstatten. Mit der Wasserkühlung war mein AMD Rayzen 5 3600 Konstanz auf 47-55° in spielen wie apex Legends kanckte sie auch die 75° und das wollte ich nicht mehr also habe ich mich für den Noctua Nh-u12s entschieden.

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.
