    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.

    Super quiet and cools the cpu like a charm. I also love the look it gives to my tower. Totally worth the money, especially if you dont want to go the water cooling way.

    Hab mir diese Kühlung bestellt, weil ich davor noch den Stock Kühler drauf hatte. Da hab ich mir gedacht, ich kauf mal was richtiges und dachte sofort an Noctua. Nach einem halben Jahr im Betrieb enttäuscht mich dieser Lüfter nicht. Er läuft sehr leise und kühl. Tolles Produkt.

    Replaced an old Corsair 280mm AIO on an old Intel i7 4790k computer that I feared would break from age. Temperature is just as cool, with the added bonus of being quieter.

    I had the CM Hyper 212, but wanted to start overclocking a decent amount. I also wanted something aesthetically pleasing for my all black case. Love this! My temps are 60-70 degrees C with my i5-9600K overclocked to 4.7GHz

    This is an excellent cooler that works well and provides good clearance for getting to the RAM on an AMD motherboard. We had an installation issue with an AMD AM4 socket that another reviewer noted. If you use the gray standoffs as stated in the instructions, you cannot get the threaded barrels started on the threaded posts. We contacted Noctua and they just said to use a bigger screwdriver. With the white standoffs, the installation went smoothly. There is only a 1 mm difference in length between the taller white standoffs and the gray standoffs. The spring-loaded barrels have at least 3 mm or 4 mm play, so the extra 1 mm for the standoff does not make a difference. Noctua needs to fix their instruction sheet.

    So before i was using a Darkflash cpu cooler. I forget the exact model it was. It was cooling but would get loud to cool my cpu during games. Finally decided to upgrade. Chose it after some research. Bought a second noctua fan of the same model so i could get a push/pull configuration with the airflow.

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.
