> 3 dayVon Erfahrung hab ich den Standard kühler vom AMD 3700x zu laut und mit einer Temperatur von 85 grad geht mal gar nicht. Mit dem neuen Noctua komm ich auf 61 grad max

> 3 dayIts exactly as advertised, I have it on a 3800xt that set as stock. runs 12 degrees cooler than the stock AMD prism cooler at idle, and anywhere between 8-14 degrees under higher loads. In terms of comparison to sound and how loud it might be. I have my desktop half a meter from where I sit, its whisper quiet under load, I usually have headphones on or speakers going very low and I dont hear it at all. At Idle its impossible to hear even if you put your ear to the case. Overall this is a great product if you aim to do light to medium OC or keeping your device at stock levels and just want a whisper quiet system.

> 3 dayInstallation is easy enough, quiet as can be. Would be preferable to come with two fans not just the one out of the box.

> 3 dayHad no issues installing. Noise level is ok, not loud but not quiet. Keeps my system fairly cool. Recommend their products as Ive never had any issues over the years.

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. |
